The Premier League is back! What will the first weekend in April offer?

The Premier League returns to O2 TV after two weeks. Although there are no Top 6 matches on the schedule this time, viewers will definitely not be bored. What to look forward to?

Defender at Burnley

Manchester City’s break has come in handy. The performance of Pep Guardiola’s squad was not ideal, which culminated in a 0:0 draw at Crystal Palace. Manchester suddenly have just a one-point lead at the top of the competition over second-placed Liverpool.

The Citizens travel to Turf Moore, where all footballers hate it. Burnley at home will not give anyone anything for free, how will Manchester do under the blanket. Yes, it’s playing first to penultimate, but Arsenal, Chelsea and Manchester United have already lost points to Burnley this season.

London derby

Crystal Palace’s match with Arsenal is nothing specific in itself, but given the form of both teams it could be an excellent punctuation to a weekend of football. The Gunners will not have an easy time at Selhurst Park on Monday.

Crystal Palace are going through the spring part of the season in style, not having lost six games in a row (4 wins, 2 draws – the same record Arsenal have). The Seagulls have conceded five goals in their last ten games, with three of their players making the senior England squad.

The young Arsenal are thinking about the Champions League again after five years, this derby will definitely entertain!

The first of Manchester’s missions

If Manchester United want to rate their season as even a little bit successful, they need to finish in the Top 4 and qualify for the Champions League. But the road will be thorny, the Red Devils are four points behind fourth-placed Arsenal and the London side has a game in hand.

Manchester still have tough games against Liverpool, Arsenal and Chelsea, so Leicester must beat them. And although the Foxes are not in form, games against the speedy Jamie Vardy and the technical James Maddison are never enjoyable.
