What will the 28th round of the PL offer? Clash of the struggling giants, Czechs at Liverpool and Manchester derby

The 28th round of the Premier League takes place this weekend. The highlight will be the Manchester derby, from the point of view of a Czech fan, the trip of the Czech national team at West Ham to Anfield. What else to look forward to?

Manchester derby

A month ago, the Manchester City derby with Manchester United would have seemed like a sure thing and a sure thing, currently the situation is a bit different. The Citizens’ lead at the top of the Premier League table has shrunk from ten to three points (that is, if Liverpool can manage their game to win).

On the other hand, the Red Devils are not in the best form either, more precisely, the whole of 2022 has been a big disappointment so far. Ronaldo is not doing well, the only positives are the performances of Jadon Sancho and Anthony Elanga. The favorite is clear, but a derby is a derby!

A battle of toothless rookies

After the first third of the season, few would have expected Brentford to travel to Norwich’s ground in March with a must win attitude. But the Bees failed to handle the winter part of the season and gradually dropped just three points above the relegation zone.

It is Norwich, apart from one bright period, that has been languishing all season and its relegation is being counted on by most of the public in the Isles. The squad the worst in the league, the form too, if Brentford are to be caught anywhere, it’s here. And if Norwich don’t pick up a point, the Canaries’ hopes of salvation will be slim indeed.

Battle of the Extinct Marks

Tottenham’s match with Everton as a battle of seventh against seventeenth. Yes, you read that right The two clubs have lost nine of their last thirteen games together, and the visitors are only a point from the relegation zone.

Everton, meanwhile, have a balanced squad with experienced players like Seamus Coleman and outstanding individuals (Richarlison, Dominic Calvert-Lewin), yet they are drowning near the bottom. Tottenham were knocked out of the cup again in the week and must win their home game if they want to stay in contention for the Champions League.
