Will Conte lose again at the Etihad?
When Conte arrived in the Premier League last term with Chelsea, he had a memorable 1-3 defeat to Manchester City at the Etihad. That defeat was mixed between the Blues' 13- win record. Although Chelsea were very strong at that time, facing Man City away from home was never easy.
This time, he also traveled from London to Manchester but Conte is no longer Chelsea, that is Tottenham having lost 3 consecutive matches. If they continue to lose to Man City, Spurs will consider saying goodbye to the Top 4 race. On the contrary, if they win, not just 3 points, the spirit of Kane and his teammates will increase a lot. At that time, "The Rooster" indirectly made the championship race more attractive when Liverpool was predicted to easily win against the relegation zone champion Norwich.
Both Conte and Pep are good coaches, the true champions of English football, their confrontation will be very exciting. On a beautiful day, it is unknown how many points Tottenham will achieve at the right moment away from home in the upcoming away match?
Arsenal's apology
Arsenal have lost three games in a row this season, including a 2-0 defeat to new signings Brentford. Everything is different now that the "Gunners" are the team with the most opportunities in the race for 4th place. As for Brentford, they are looking for more points to ensure they stay in the top flight of English football.
The "Gunners" in the loss at the beginning of the season have changed a lot compared to now when Leno no longer held the goal, Chambers was sold, Mari and Balogun have left on loan. Another very Arsenal side are showing a positive face. Brentford is no longer in a mess like at the beginning of the season, so 3 points at home at Emirates are considered to be in hand.
Continue to wait for Van de Beek to bring joy to Everton
Van de Beek was given the highest score in the recent 3-0 win over Leeds. The midfielder, who was loaned from Manchester United, paired up with Allan to form a solid shield in front of the defence.
Allan was once brought back by Benitez from Napoli, had a good start but got tired later. This midfielder stands out for his ability to intercept and sweep, supplementing Van de Beek's rhythm and coordination. It is not possible to quickly conclude whether Lampard has revived his form for Allan or not, but the recent victory was a very sensitive dose of mental stimulation.
This time's opponent will be Southampton - a team that played very difficult and almost left M.U penniless in the previous round. In the context of Newcastle breathing hot air behind his neck, Lampard needs 3 points right at St. Petersburg. Mary's added to the Magpies' toss.
