Two midweek make up games. We get the most important game in English soccer or something when third placed Man United travel a bit west to play a team currently sitting 7th. Meanwhile, Man City hosts Newcastle, we get a London derby of overperforming squads, and the battle for relegation will be heating up.

Feels like a make or break game for Potter. He can't survive a loss, and a draw or unconvincing win won't earn him many points.

2 massive opportunities for 6 points from Arsenal.

For Brighton, we seem to play well against West Ham. Would love to see a result to keep the European dream alive.

This is the fourth time LFC have played Wolverhampton in the year 2023, and I could not be less interested

6 points and a result for Newcastle and Liverpool (over the weekend, to be clear) would go a long way for the title chase. 7 or 8 points up with 12 matches left in that case.

Not going to get my hopes up. I don't trust other clubs to get results when it could help Arsenal lol.

Same team as against Leicester. Trossard over Eddie is a nobrainer at this point but if Partey is fit he should start over Xhaka for me.

Martinelli could probably use a rest. He's pressing too much.

When Jesus is back, it wouldn't surprise me to see Trossard start at LW for a bit. Alternatively, perhaps having Jesus around will revitalize Martinelli, as part of his early season success came from their interplay.

Saka has scored one and created one by pressing.

Man we play like f***ing crap all half, Darwin gets the ball for the first time in a dangerous position and puts it straight on Elliott's head for a great chance...and it goes way wide
