Here\u00a0we go\u2026.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Burnley v Liverpool<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The Clarets can count themselves unlucky, going down at home by the odd goal to Swansea.<\/p>\n<p>Although they have the luxury of another Turf Moor fixture, it\u2019s against a Liverpool side who\u00a0will be buoyant after their second half performance against Arsenal.<\/p>\n<p>Sean Dyche\u2019s sides are always hard-working and give the punters exactly what they want,\u00a0but they do tend to lack that little bit of quality to get them over the line in games.<\/p>\n<p>Indeed, the performance against Swansea is the most recent example of the same.<\/p>\n<p>It would be easy for them to fall into the same pattern as previously in this division and if\u00a0three points is beyond them here, they must at least come away with a draw.<\/p>\n<p>Two losses from two would be the worst possible start but with Coutinho, Lallana and Mane\u00a0in particular in such stunning form, I can\u2019t see past another entertaining away win for Jurgen\u00a0Klopp\u2019s swashbucklers.<\/p>\n<p>The German will have to work miracles at the back to keep a clean sheet mind.<\/p>\n<p>My first prediction of the week is a 1-3 away victory.<\/p>\n<p><strong>West Brom v Everton<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The blue half of Merseyside will be just as happy as their near-neighbours after their\u00a0opening day draw against much fancied Tottenham.<\/p>\n<p>Although the Lilywhites haven\u2019t spent heavily in the market, Mauricio Pochettino knows\u00a0exactly what he wants from his players and vice-versa.<\/p>\n<p>With Ronald Koeman at the helm Everton are still in transition, so to take a well-deserved\u00a0point would\u2019ve pleased the Dutchman.<\/p>\n<p>Now they\u2019ve an altogether different proposition to deal with in the form of a resilient West\u00a0Brom side who\u2019ll be smarting from their defeat at Crystal Palace.<\/p>\n<p>Tony Pulis\u2019 side are the most attractive to watch but the Welshman makes the most of what\u00a0he can given the tools he has at his disposal.<\/p>\n<p>It might not be too long before he sees a decent injection of cash for transfers after the\u00a0Baggies were taken over.<\/p>\n<p>However, it\u2019s unlikely to happen before the close of this window.<\/p>\n<p>Two contrasting styles at the Hawthorns but only one winner.<\/p>\n<p>Koeman\u2019s education at Barcelona will see to it that the Toffee\u2019s have just that little bit more\u00a0about them and will take this by the odd goal 1-2.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Leicester v Arsenal<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>What a game already we have in prospect at the King Power Stadium.<\/p>\n<p>At the time of writing it isn\u2019t known how serious the injuries are to Arsenal\u2019s Alex Iwobi and\u00a0Aaron Ramsey, but clearly Arsene Wenger needs to do some major reshuffling work.<\/p>\n<p>The time for excuses has long since past and the insistence on being happy with his squad\u00a0whilst potentially true, is beginning to make the Frenchman look like a martyr.<\/p>\n<p>The Gunners simply have to spend big for a change or risk really being left behind this\u00a0season.<\/p>\n<p>Finishing fourth does appear to have become a genuine aim for the north Londoners but\u00a0they won\u2019t even be guaranteed that if they don\u2019t invest.<\/p>\n<p>Is it any wonder why Alexis Sanchez and Mesut Ozil are not committing their futures to the\u00a0club.<\/p>\n<p>Ranieri has that important commodity of time on his side to rebuild and, uniquely, there\u2019s\u00a0no real pressure on him and his staff to repeat their heroics of last season.<\/p>\n<p>With Champions League football to contend with too, this could be just as hard a season for\u00a0the Foxes to endure.<\/p>\n<p>We\u2019ll likely see an entertaining game in the Midlands but neither side will do enough to take\u00a0the three points.<\/p>\n<p>A 1-1 that will suit the hosts more than their opponents.<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019ve managed to get to the half way point with a 100% record then you might want to\u00a0consider our unique Partial Cash Out.<\/p>\n<p>Bank a portion of your ticket for some guaranteed funds and play on with the remainder.\u00a0You could be quids in!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.colossusbets.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/Petti-fp6-blog.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full

belter.<\/p>\n<p>Although it doesn\u2019t hold quite the same cachet as when Newcastle are in town, Sunderland\u00a0will want to show Middlesbrough who\u2019s boss in the locale.<\/p>\n<p>David Moyes has his first chance to impress the home support and despite losing at\u00a0Manchester City in the season opener, his side were compact and hard to break down.<\/p>\n<p>In short, they had all of the hallmarks of a typical Moyes outfit.<\/p>\n<p>The Black Cats\u2019 last two seasons have been the stuff of nightmares, ditto the trajectory of\u00a0Moyes, so this season represents a chance for both to restore battered reputations.<\/p>\n<p>Boro are a decent outfit who\u2019ve invested well as usual, and in Aitor Karanka they have a\u00a0manager who can lead them to the promised land.<\/p>\n<p>Still finding their feet in their new surroundings, this game could come a bit too quickly for\u00a0the visitors, but they\u2019ll put in a good showing regardless.<\/p>\n<p>A 1-0 victory for the hosts won\u2019t quite be the classic everyone wants, but the home fans will\u00a0go home happy.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Sporting Gijon v Athletic Bilbao<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Despite finishing 5 th in La Liga last season, Athletic Bilbao were a cavernous 29 points behind\u00a0eventual champions Barcelona.<\/p>\n<p>To give that a little more perspective, they finished 30 points ahead of bottom placed\u00a0Levante.<\/p>\n<p>Disappointingly for Ernesto Valverde\u2019s side, they were also just one win away from finishing\u00a0in the Champions League positions.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019ll be a stretch for the Basques to break into the top three \u2013 they were also 26 points\u00a0behind third-placed Atletico Madrid \u2013 so the best that Los Leones can hope for is \u2018same\u00a0again.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>Although Europa League participation could hamper them slightly, Villarreal who finished\u00a0ahead of them in fourth, are not at equipped to deal with European football\u2019s premier\u00a0competition.<\/p>\n<p>Sporting on the other hand left it very late indeed to confirm their status for another\u00a0season.<\/p>\n<p>Abelardo Fernandez would like to see a significant improvement on that from his players\u00a0but when all is said and done, if they remain in the division come May time, it will be\u00a0another job well done from a team operating on a shoestring budget at present.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019ll be scrappy and neither will be cock-a- hoop about an opening day goalless draw 0-0.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Atalanta v Lazio<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s four years almost to the day since Lazio won on this ground, despite holding the upper\u00a0hand in the fixture in general terms.<\/p>\n<p>Indeed, two wins in three months either side of the 2012 summer break are the only\u00a0victories for the visitors in the last 13 years there.<\/p>\n<p>Atalanta are hardly one of Serie A\u2019s glamour sides with the greatest of respect, but what\u00a0they are is a group of hard-workers who are prepared to go to war for the cause.<\/p>\n<p>What they lack in quality, they make up for in endeavour.<\/p>\n<p>Gian Piero Gasperini knows that he hasn\u2019t got anywhere close to the quality that Simone\u00a0Inzaghi can call upon, but his side will frustrate their more illustrious opponents for the\u00a0most part.<\/p>\n<p>I can quite easily see this one settled by a late Ciro Immobile tap in. 0-1 is my final prediction\u00a0this week.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The opening Premier League weekend was all we expected and more.
