It's a doozy of a weekend in terms of Premier League fixtures. We are live on Sunday from Arsenal against Manchester United. That's a half past four kick-off. and the other game that we're doing on Sunday live on the radio is Crystal Palace against Chelsea also on Sunday it's Brentford and Forest and UCAS United and Villa they're the other two o'clock kick-offs and it's a reasonable state of the game tomorrow as well West Ham and Sunderland get your weekend off to a nice gentle one that you can largely ignore unless you're Ben Burnley and Spurs at three o'clock Fulham and Brighton at three Man City take on Wolves a resurgent Wolves at three o'clock to see who they're going to sign in the summer and then Bournemouth against Liverpool is a half past five kick-off and are Liverpool back or not
Bournemouth slight resurgent slight green shoots in terms of their form just recently Ben and David are with us in studio and Lee Phelps is with us on the line Lee good morning to you how are you yeah really good thank you yeah it's a cracking weekend isn't it and there's a lot of those games that you just listed that I think
It's not that easy to predict. I mean, like, you know, everyone will be hating me for saying this, but we've had a good start to the year because it's been a weird start. There's been some really strange results. And you look at Liverpool, how confident are you back at them? How confident are we back in Man City at 2-9 against Wolves? We should be, shouldn't we? We should be. But like... You're not, though.
Well... At the moment, you're just not back in City. I mean, they will win that game 2-0, right? Yeah, they will.
They'll win the game, won't they? But 2-9, it's not like, yes, definitely put it on Urraca without even contemplating it, isn't it? It's not that, because the performance against Manchester United, the performance against Bodo Glimt, I mean, would Wolves beat Bodo Glimt?
Well, I don't know. I think Bodo Glimt in the Arctic Circle have been tricky for everybody.
What Premier League fixtures are highlighted for the weekend?
Juve had a late winner there. Spurs, who are obviously no good, also managed to draw there. Spurs in Europe aren't bad, right? They're, for whatever reason, a slightly different team. I think it's because of Europe.
I think that's what it is. It's because of Europe, isn't it? The Premier League, whatever you say about it, I know people always say it's the best league in the world and all that. Well, it must be pretty good because teams who are out of form in the Premier League just go places and win fairly comfortably, don't they?
You said it's been a good year for the bookmakers so far. Is that because the draw has made a comeback out of nowhere? There were no draws for a couple of seasons and now suddenly we're getting loads of them.
Yeah. I mean, some of the results have been absolutely, I mean, we kind of like, obviously you're looking at it through the, through the prism of, you know, commercial results, obviously, but obviously this season for us, we're also looking at it through the prism of final one standing. And when you look at like some of the, obviously those first two, leagues and especially the 500,000 euro one they went so long didn't they we got to all the way to round 19 for that and you couldn't get rid of players there was players getting through every week but then suddenly you look at some of the results over the past couple of weeks like you know for the newer leagues you know draws galore that week where Man City drew there were only about three wins I think all weekend Arsenal drew of course City drew and suddenly you're like yeah so there's we're getting winners every week we had
