The Top 5 Teams are Up for the Challenge
The first match featured a win from defending champions Man City, with the squad through Haaland dominating against newly promoted side Burnley, 3-0. It might have been a projected automatic win, but Pep’s side did enough to prove their upcoming plan for the season.
This is the same with Arteta’s side, which got a 2-1 victory against Nottingham Forest. However, it was rather an unconvincing performance from the Gunners during the last stages of the game. Nonetheless, it was still a victory, so the team is ready to contend for the title again.
Chelsea and Liverpool faced off on Sunday, ending 1-1. Considering the two teams’ performances last campaign, there was more to focus on than the draw result, especially from Chelsea’s point of view.
Manchester United finished the game week with a 1-0 win, but, like Arsenal, it was rather unconvincing considering the side they were facing (Wolves). However, pundits argue that winning Ugly will be Manchester’s style of football this gaming year.
New Teams Uprising
Squads are rising as European football-caliber teams, which has been apparent since last season. They include Newcastle, Brighton, and Brentford. Already in the UCL, Newcastle got a convincing 5-1 win against Villa, while Brighton won 4-1 versus new side Luton Town.
The two teams have technically surpassed Tottenham, who drew 2-2 against Brentford, regarding rankings and performances. Considering the squads’ results in the first week, they are undoubtedly looking to cement and better their impressive performances from last season.
Therefore, we are in for an interesting season, thus crucial to be ready for an emotional roller coaster as a fan of any EPL team. Like last campaign, we shall see new teams rise while others slip up, like Aston Villa in their first game.
