Arne Slot's team won their first 7 matches this season, but recently Liverpool suffered consecutive defeats against Crystal Palace and Galatasaray. Now, Liverpool must strive to regain confidence as they face an away match at Chelsea's Stamford Bridge — a team that has only earned 1 point in their last 3 games in the Premier League.
Regarding the highlight match of this round, Shearer predicts the outcome between Chelsea vs Liverpool: “This is a highly notable and unpredictable game. Liverpool cannot afford to lose three matches in a row. They are the reigning champions and strong contenders for this season's title. Conversely, if Chelsea loses three consecutive games, Maresca will face immense pressure. Chelsea won't sack him, but things will become much tougher. This match is crucial for both teams, I expect it to end in a draw.”
On the other big matches, Alan Shearer expresses his views: “Leeds has home advantage and better fitness. On the other hand, Tottenham just played an away Champions League match. This won't be an easy game for either side. Most likely, Tottenham will share the points with Leeds.
Arsenal vs West Ham? The visitors have changed managers, but Nuno Santo needs time. Of course, they will prepare for the London derby. Considering the squad strength, form, and Arsenal's win over Newcastle last week and in the Champions League, I see no chance for West Ham to take points from Arteta's team.
I also believe both Manchester clubs will win. Sunderland had an excellent result last weekend and started the season impressively. Honestly, I’m surprised by their performance so far. I don’t fully trust Manchester United, but they will beat Sunderland. MU has good results against newcomers, and I think they will earn 3 points. As for Man City, they might struggle a bit against Brentford, but the 3 points will still go to this club.”
