For this Premier League special we teamed up with the experts of FootballPredictions

So far gone now with several matches have been played and Liverpool is currently topping the table, which is starting to raise some eyebrows hence debate on what club will emerge victor in the 2018/19 Premier League campaign.

According to a reports from Talk Sports, a Super Computer had predicted who could win the Premier League this season.

The super computer premier league predictions gowith Manchester City becoming the Champions for the second successive season with Liverpool tagging along and Manchester United & Chelsea taking the third and fourth spot.

Paris Saint-Germain forward Neymar jr also laid down his prediction for the Premier League leaving out Liverpool in the top four spot.

“Who will in it? Woah, that’s difficult,” he said.

“It’s very hard, it’s very difficult, but Manchester City will win it.

“Second will be United, third is Chelsea. Fourth is Tottenham.”

With all these predictions we will like to add ours too.

Liverpool:

Last year we saw what the Jurgen Klopp team is capable of flourishing and fighting their way to reach the Champions League final.

With that being that, the Reds got the best out of the summer transfer window as they brought in Naby Keita(from RB Leipzig), Fabinho(from AS Monaco) and Xherdan Shaqiri(from Stoke City).

The ability to reach the Champions League final also means that they are capable of winning the League if they put their mind and heart to it.

Liverpool could see themselves win the English top Flight this season as they were the only weakness the defending champions have.

Manchester City:

Second on the list is the defending Champions Manchester City. Two seasons ago Pep Guardiola was being thought how to play in the Premier League.

His second season with the Citizens proved he learnt his lesson as he lifted the English league and EFL Cup at the end of the season.

The Citizens are in contend for the Premier League but might just not be winning the league this season as Guardiola will be having his eyes set on the Champions League this campaign so will have to settle for the second position.

On the third and fourth place will be Manchester United and Chelsea.

Jose Mourinho team is full of talents but are seeming to lack something else in motion to push them forward to go further in the league.

While the Blues teams which is also full of talents but will be taking sometime for the squad to finally adapt to Maurizio Sarri’s style of football.

The Premier League is a competitive league as it is almost unpredictable as to who could finish at the top.

Tottenham’s Miserable Run Continues  

Published

Relegation-threatened Tottenham’s miserable 2026 continued as their winless run extended to 10 league games with Fulham gaining a deserved victory to boost their hopes of qualifying for European football.

Fulham, who scored twice in the opening six minutes in their 2-1 win over Spurs in November, again got an early goal with Harry Wilson netting in the seventh minute.

However, the goal was controversial as new Spurs boss Igor Tudor felt it should have been disallowed as home striker Raul Jimenez pushed Radu Dragusin as they challenged for a Kenny Tete cross, before Oscar Bobb picked out Wilson to volley home from six yards out.

Tottenham had a similar goal ruled out last week in their 4-1 loss to Arsenal for a foul by Randal Kolo Muani on Gunners defender Gabriel but, following a check from the video assistant referee (VAR) Craig Pawson, Fulham’s goal was allowed to stand, much to Tudor’s fury.

Spurs, though, had no excuses for the 34th-minute second goal with Alex Iwobi left with space to shoot home superbly from 18 yards out, with the ball going in off the inside of the post after a neat exchange with Wilson.

City Survive Leeds’ Challenge At Elland Road

Antoine Semenyo scored just before half-time as title-chasing Manchester City escaped Elland Road with victory over an energetic Leeds United.

The hard-earned outcome narrowed Arsenal’s lead to two points at the top of the Premier League.

City travelled to West Yorkshire without their Leeds-born star striker Erling Haaland who was injured in training, and it looked for large periods in the first half that they would rue not having their top goalscorer available.

But Ghana international Semenyo stretched to convert Rayan Ait-Nouri’s fizzed low ball into the penalty area for his sixth City goal since joining from Bournemouth in January.

Leeds will be wondering how they did not score after making a sprightly start and giving City real cause for early concern.

Meanwhile , a clinical Liverpool performance helped them beat battling West Ham in the Premier League and move level on points with fourth-placed Manchester United.

The hosts were 3-0 up at the break thanks to goals from Hugo Ekitike, Virgil van Dijk and Alexis Mac Allister.

West Ham pulled one back early in the second half through Tomas Soucek before Cody Gakpo restored Liverpool’s three-goal lead in the 70th minute.

Nuno Espirito Santo’s side scored again through Taty Castellanos, but an Axel Disasi own goal ensured Liverpool hit five goals in a league game for the first time this season.

Bayern Rebound To Overcome Dortmund In Bundesliga (5)

Harry Kane scored two second-half goals as Bayern Munich came from behind to beat Borussia Dortmund in a thrilling match and move 11 points clear at the top of the Bundesliga.

The England striker took his tally to 45 goals in all competitions this season as Bayern became the first team to inflict a home league defeat on Dortmund.

West Ham pulled one back early in the second half through Tomas Soucek before Cody Gakpo restored Liverpool’s three-goal lead in the 70th minute.

Nuno Espirito Santo’s side scored again through Taty Castellanos, but an Axel Disasi own goal ensured Liverpool hit five goals in a league game for the first time this season.

All three of the Reds’ first-half goals came from set-pieces – with Arne Slot’s side now leading the table in 2026 when it comes to goals from set-plays (excluding penalties).

In the fifth minute, Ryan Gravenberch teed up Ekitike, who finished smartly to beat Mads Hermansen at the near post for his 16th goal of the season.

West Ham threatened to equalise, but against the run of play Liverpool doubled their advantage when Van Dijk headed in Dominik Szoboszlai’s corner.

The visitors failed to take advantage of Liverpool’s complacency with Konstantinos Mavropanos, Jarrod Bowen and Soucek all wasting chances.

And just before half-time, Mac Allister’s superb volley took a deflection and ended in the back of the net. That was the cue for sections of the travelling support to head for the exits.

 Nico Schlotterbeck’s opener.

Dortmund thought they had snatched a point when Daniel Svensson’s thumping volley sent Signal Iduna Park into pandemonium.

But that was until Joshua Kimmich’s strike three minutes from time kept Bayern in pole position to win a 14th title in 15 seasons.

Schlotterbeck headed Dortmund ahead in the 26th minute when he rose highest in a crowded penalty area to connect with Svensson’s free-kick from the left.

Dortmund had the chance to double their lead later in the half when Fabio Silva squared the ball to Maximilian Beier, who was denied by the onrushing Jonas Urbig.

Despite dominating possession in the first half, Bayern – playing with a front three of Kane, Michael Olise and Luis Diaz – were unable to test Dortmund goalkeeper Gregor Kobel.

But Kane equalised early in the second period with a poacher’s effort from inside the area at the end of a slick move involving Kimmich and Serge Gnabry.

Both teams missed chances before Kane scored a penalty – a record 10th in a Bundesliga season – after Josip Stanisic was floored by Schlotterbeck.

Dortmund levelled when Svensson volleyed past Urbig, but Kimmich all but ended their hopes of winning a first title since 2012.
