Really smooth game by Liverpool.    They controlled the first half without problems. Manchester City tried to do something later on but I can't say they were very well in general anyway.

This didn't surprise me though. Manchester City were already crying for help like I said. If I'm not wrong it is a 6-game streak of without a win. What a mess... I hope Guardiola doesn't try to injure himself more after this result. He is really unhappy with this horrible streak. The point gap with the leader literally has gone up to 11 points.

Liverpool are really comfortable at the top. Arne Slot is running for a new record I guess.

Chelsea under the coaching of Enzo Maresca has been able to rise from the slump where they were able to show their strength again when facing strong teams. In today's match I was amazed to see the development of Chelsea's game which is getting better where they are very united with each other and they are also able to withstand the pressure of their opponents, it is really good development done by Maresca.

Aston Villa is not a weak opponent because they have many quality players in their team but by improving Chelsea performance, Aston Villa was unable to keep up with the previous match well. As a result, Chelsea was able to launch many good attacks and if you look at the match statistics, of course Chelsea is very reasonable to win with a score of 3-0 because they were able to make many accurate shots and attacks.

It was a rough game for Villa, even if i had suspected Chelsea of winning this game i had the opinion of a different result not like this, the defeat was really a bad one for their record. Chelsea has been up doing this whole season, Maresca truly understand what he is building with the club, despite some lapses in the squad, he still manages to extract useful points, clearly he now have higher hopes of qualifying for the Champions League if they would keep up this performance.

Manchester United did an impressive performance today, 4 goals against Everton, not a tough team but at worst it has helped them move forward on the table, now at the 9th position. I don't know what is up for Manchester City, they are taking too long to get on track, the gap from Liverpool is becoming really ambiguous each played week, the title might be settled on them.

After Amorim's 2 silly experiments with Malacia and Antony against Bodo/Glimt it seems like he realizes that priorities and winning are paramount and he's got the momentum this time around with players that I think are much more stable than his previous lineups.

The game ended without a hitch for them with 2 braces from the feet of Rashford and Zirkzee that saw Manchester United end the week's festivities on a high at Old Trafford.

Their momentum is starting to build now although doubts about Amorim are still very big due to the departure of Rudd van Nistelrooy but it seems he still wants to show that Manchester United's decision to sign him from Sporting was not a mistake.

Chelsea full strength football team gave osum effort in this match and we saw on handed match and match was ended with the result of 3-0 . Aston Villa full strength team could not do any goal in this match and stat of that team was not impressive.  That match was happen in the Stamford Bridge stadium.  Jackson  was the player who did first goal of this match and  he did first goal at 7 minutes. We saw next goal by the same team but now Fernandez did second goal of this match and last goal did by Palmer and he did this goal at 83 minutes.  The stats of Chelsea team is amazing . The possession of Chelsea team was 65 percent and pass accuracy of that team was also excellent.Aston Villa team was very poor and that team have to look on their limitations.

Aston Villa really experienced a severe decline because after all, previously Aston Villa managed to have 11 matches without losing in all competitions. But unfortunately, after Aston Villa got these good results, and then Aston Villa did not get any wins in the last 8 matches in all competitions. With bad results like this, of course, it makes Aston Villa now its position also continues to deteriorate, although previously Aston Villa was in the upper zone, but now Aston Villa has dropped to the middle zone. If Aston Villa does not manage to recover quickly, then of course Aston Villa is difficult to return to the top zone of the standings, but I don't know what problems Aston Villa is experiencing to make it bad like that.

By the way, Enzo Maresca really managed to make Chelsea have results and be in a good position this season. Although it was not easy for Chelsea to recover quickly, but they still succeeded with the great efforts they made. Of course, I also don't want to lose a moment like this to keep trusting Chelsea when betting and so is about Liverpool. In fact, Arne Slot has also managed to make Liverpool even more impressive this season and with Arne Slot's success so far, at least it seems to make Liverpool and fans forget that they have been left behind by Klopp who has provided extraordinary results in his era.

You are right, the season still has many matches left. And Liverpool will be required to maintain their current consistency. Arsenal who dominated last season at the beginning of the season were finally thwarted by Man City to win the Premier League title. And I hope Liverpool does not experience the same fate. They are currently ahead in points quite well.
But there is an interesting fact that Liverpool has currently managed to beat 3 teams that won their domestic league trophies last season. Just beat Man City with a score of 2-0. beat La Liga champions Madrid 2-0 and beat Leverkusen who won the Bundesliga trophy last season with a score of 4-0. they will also face PSV, the Eredivisie champions, will Liverpool beat last season's champions?

It's sad seeing Manchester city playing this way this is not the traditional Manchester city that we know I don't really know what is happening to Manchester city and pep because everything seems to be falling apart for them with what I see their main problem is goal scoring there's a discunetion between the middle field and the attack that fluidity of the ball moving from the mid field to the attack is missing losing about four premier league games in a row is something else and with the way things are going Liverpool seems to be running away with the league title because the point difference is getting bigger with and wider and it will be difficult for teams to close in on them because looking at the top four teams at the top of the table I can't really see any team that is serious and consistent with form

The match ended 2-0 in favour of Liverpool. The losing streak in the premier league continues for Manchester City. They have never played this poorly for a long time since Pep Guardiola took over as the head coach, so also; this happen to be the first time that Pep Guardiola will be having a very rough time for a long time in his coaching career. He looks very upset, demoralized and confused, I just imagine how he talks to them in the dressing room after losses upon losses like this. Pep Guardiola that I know hasn’t lost hope yet since we are not even halfway into the season. If they can still maintain a good position on the standings and continue to move alongside other top teams in the league, he’ll have a chance for the league title still. With more than 20 matches left to be played, the fate of many teams that are above them now can change because it’s not about surpassing a team on the standings but it is more about you maintaining that performance in the league, consistency matters the most and if you can’t give it, you’ll not last long in your position. Let’s see how far Liverpool can maintain this consistency and finishing the league in.

Aston Villa was no threat for the Blues this weekend, because they've fumbles in recent games and you don't expect thrilling vigorous victory from average club.Chelsea succeeded in accumulating three solid points at Stamford Bridge. This is the Blues we're talking about because its been a longterm since we've experienced such stellar stats from them. Enzo Maresca is breaking limits for the team, with his embedded patterns, we've watch a whole lot of thing moving forward in his regime. With the likes of Nicolas Jackson, Enzo Fernandez and Cole Palmer, Chelsea was able to sealed the big winnings and a joyful chorus filled the atmosphere.

Liverpool vs Man City match is quite tight. Liverpool managed to lead by 1 goal from Gakpo in the 12th minute. And now it is approaching the end of the second half but Man City did not get many opportunities to score goals. Moreover, Salah scored Liverpool's second goal from the penalty spot. Making the atmosphere worse for Man City.
If this result lasts until the end of the match, and Liverpool wins the match, then this result will extend Man City's bad results. There is something wrong with Pep's squad. He must be very uncomfortable with the results of Man City's last few matches.
On the other hand, Liverpool with this victory will be more solid at the top of the standings. And Man City dropped far to 5th position in the standings.

I hate to say this but Tottenham looks so garbage and mid-table team in this game. They have been declining so hard after their massive won against City. I think no excuses for their shitty performance. they completely dominated the game, but only created 4 big chances.

The reality check is that they are nothing without Romero and VDV. They were equal to the Fulham without their best players. I know some of their important players were injured, but it can't be used as an excuse.

They have a lot of players available in their bench, yet I'm questioning Ange's roster building skill. The draw is fair enough, but i'm not a fan for this result.

Even judging Chelsea's performance against Aston Villa today,  Chelsea's goals should have reached 4:0 score line but,  N. Jackson miss used most of their opportunities to score more goals. Arsenal is ahead of Chelsea base on first to climb basis ,but re tied to point and goals.
Manchester City Match has already kick-started and Liverpool is currently leading in this very game,  Looking like City would suffer another defeat in the Premier League today,  if they failed to mount their guard in this game,  I kind of think that Manchester City poor performances has resulted in them losing a bit confidence of their quality and this will definitely create more problem going forward, If Pep Guardiola failed to act quickly or swing into action to rescue the club from this mess.

All matches of week 13 have ended, except for the match between Liverpool vs Manchester city today which will be played soon, arsenal, chelsea and manchester united managed to win very convincingly today, while Tottenham actually had to draw 1-1 with Fulham, curently change in position in the standings has occurred quite significantly and made the competition between teams in top 4 zone is getting tighter, the Chelsea vs Aston Villa match, is actually my concern because both teams have a positive performance, but I didn't expect if Chelsea will win easily even with a landslide score today over Aston Villa.

So far, that predictions made by len01 is going smoothly, Tottenham couldn't defend the goal they scored and made it possible for Fulham to draw the match, they fought so hard and even created good chance too. I knew Manchester United would win Everton but the scoreline is suprising, Amorim's football is becoming more interesting as the week goes, the players are beginning to understand his tactics and suprisenly the ones we least expected where the goalscorers in the match. Chelsea outplayed Aston Villa, they're really improving and have found their way to the top of the table too bad Aston Villa is losing form and have really dropped. Liverpool and Manchester City would be kicking off soon, in their previous 5 matches City have won the most but based on Liverpool's form and City decline in form recently, the home team are the more favourites to win. Well we could see a draw cause City have really declined on the table and they'll fight so hard not to lose again.

The match between Chelsea vs Aston Villa team in the Premier League has already started. Chelsea team is leading by 2 goals so far. The players of Aston Villa team have not been able to score any goals in this match so far. In today's match, it does not seem that Aston Villa team will be able to score any goals because the players of Aston Villa team are a much stronger team than Chelsea team. We have seen that Aston Villa team could not do anything good in the previous matches, we are waiting to see how they will perform in this match.

I think Spurs is in a very good mood after they were successfully beating City with decent score so i pick Spurs.

As for Man U vs Everton, Manchester United's odds looks very decent @1.66, playing at home, and they was bouncing after their win in Europa League. They will have a hard time to beat Everton, which is an away team. I think to pick Man United -0.75 makes sense.

The game between Chelsea vs Villa is pretty interesting. I remember the last time Chelsea burried Villa, yet i believe it will happen once again. So, i pick Chelsea.

The last game between Liverpool vs Manchester City is quite hard to predict. City was a winner last season. but they're just declining so hard. Meanwhile, Liverpool is getting even better under their new coach, Arne Slot.  They have not yet stopped their winning streak. My pick is Liverpool

A really bold choice for the Tottenham - Fulham game.    Seeing Tottenham's odds @1.97 makes me uncomfortable honestly. However I still think they will find a way to win this one.

Manchester United just got their first win in Amorim era you know and I believe it is time to make the winning streak 2 games. I hope they don't struggle again.

Chelsea should be beating Aston Villa at Stamford Bridge. Emery is in a really difficult situation these days. Aston Villa can't win for weeks.

And lastly, I also believe Liverpool won't lose but I think they won't even make do with a draw as well. Guardiola's team is still not convincing at all. 

Tottenham Hotspur this season didn't have a good start to the season which is why many had already written them off for a place in the top four of the English Premier League table this season but in recent games, they've been getting good results and just last week, they got a 4:0 win at the home of the reigning English Premier League Manchester City. Against Fulham Today, Ange Postecoglou's men will want to to continue their resurgence to top form. I think they'll win this game and if they do, I believe they'll likely finish the season in the top four.  Do you think they'll be getting the better of their visitors or do you think otherwise? Let me read your thoughts

Spurs vs Fulham (draw or Fulham)
Man United vs Everton (MU win)
Chelsea vs Aston Villa (Chelsea win)
Liverpool vs Man City (draw)

There are some interesting matches today but I'm sure everyone is waiting for the big match between Liverpool and Man City. I have a reason why I chose a draw in this match because I believe both teams choose to share points and will play carefully.
Although City is currently in poor form, Liverpool will not take any risks compared to ending up losing.
So both teams will play carefully without making mistakes so as not to lose points.
