With Christmas fast approaching the league is set to get more competitive as the first round of matches are 6 games away from being completed.

Burnley Vs Manchester City 1:30pm
Burnley enjoyed a short run of form including their wonderful defensive display against Manchester United at Old trafford, after which they went on to beat Crystal Palace 3 - 2 and then suffered a 4 - 0 humiliation at the hands of West Brom on Monday night football.
They will be playing host to Pep Guardiola's Manchester City who also are struggling for form at the moment. Not many predicted this struggle for City after their early cruise control at the beginning of the season when they were sweeping teams away. Last weekend they needed the help of one time outcast Yaya Toure to secure all three points against Crystal palace .

EPL Week 12 Prediction

Guess what, the international break is over and we welcome a mouth watering weekend of the most watched league in the world. There is no better way to welcome back the Epl than with a "REunited" clash between the "Staggering one" and the "cruising one" as Manchester United welcome the Gunners to the theater of dreams. Just after that comes clashes between Crystal Palace and Manchester City and then another interesting one between the buying club Liverpool and the selling club Southampton at saint Mary's stadium. Saturday football comes to a close with the London derby between Tottenham Hotspurs and West Ham.
The premier league week 12 comes to conclusion with the only game of Super Sunday between Middlesbrough and Chelsea at the Riverside.
A weekend filled with fixtures like this is one you definitely wouldn't want to trade for anything because it promises lots of breath taking goals and not one that comes very often.

Manchester United Vs Arsenal 1:30pm
Its so unfortunate I have to begin my prediction with this fixtures, because it is somehow the toughest of all game to predict for many reasons. First because I am a United fan, secondly the gunners current form, third, Wenger's record against Jose Mourinho, fourth, Arsenal record against United at Old trafford (not a single win in 10 years in the league) and the final one United current crop of players appear weak.

With the above I have no clear direction on how to approach this game. But one thing worthy of noting is that for the first time Jose Mourinho will be managing a weaker team (compared to his previous Chelsea teams) against his arch rival Wenger and not just that he is going to be without a Didier Drogba who usually provides the goal or a Diego Costa who will get one of Arsenal defender sent off.

EPL WEEK 11 PREDICTION

It has been an entertaining week of European football except for the fans on the red side of Manchester who witness a torture of a game on Thursday night as their team escaped with 2 - 1 defeat at the hands of Turkish side Fenerbahce who deserved to have won by a far wider margin.  They will be hoping to put that feeling away as we welcome the week 11 of the English premier League, which see two star games featuring Chelsea Vs Lukaku's Everton and London derby between Arsenal and Tottenham Hotspurs.
SATURDAY 5/11/2016
Bournemouth Vs Sunderland  4pm
Bournemouth welcome the worst team in the league to the Vitality stadium. Bournemouth had been on a good run not until they failed to win against another struggling team in Middlesbrough who defeated them 2 - 0 last weekend. Eddie Howe will be hoping his team misfortune last week is a one off thing and try to correct it as quickly as possible.
If anyone needs our prayer is definitely David Moyes who is yet to prove to his employers that he is the right man for the job after 10 games.
Many may argue that his team have suffered because of injuries but to be fair to the neutrals who offer them support out of pity Sunderland have not shown signs of winning a single a game so far though most times they tend to play well but eventually gas out in the later stages of the game.
