Paul Merson Predicts Premier League Matchday 10 Fixtures
Arsenal legend, Paul Merson has shared his predictions for the upcoming Premier League match-day 10, set to take place this weekend.
In the early kick-off on Saturday afternoon, Newcastle United will host Arsenal, while Liverpool will face Brighton at Anfield in the evening. Additionally, Manchester City will take on Bournemouth on Saturday, and Manchester United will square off against Chelsea on Sunday evening at Old Trafford.
Below are Paul Merson’s predictions for the Premier League matchday 10 fixtures according to Sportskeeda:
Newcastle United 1-2 Arsenal
Liverpool 3-1 Brighton & Hove Albion
Ipswich Town 2-1 Leicester City
Bournemouth 0-2 Manchester City
Southampton 2-1 Everton
Nottingham Forest 2-1 West Ham United
Wolves 1-0 Crystal Palace
Tottenham Hotspur 2-1 Aston Villa
Manchester United 1-3 Chelsea
Fulham 2-1 Brentford
Meanwhile, former Manchester United midfielder Paul Scholes believes Chelsea captain Reece James does not embody the traditional features of a captain.
Having been with Chelsea since the age of six, James was made captain at the start of the 2023-2024 season, following Cesar Azpilicueta’s departure.
While speaking on The Overlap, Scholes highlighted that while leadership can take different forms, James comes across as somewhat reserved.
He noted, “It’s important to have strong characters in such a large club like Chelsea. I see leadership as a quality that shines both on and off the pitch. Although Reece has the potential to lead, he may not have the presence typically associated with a captain. Similarly, I feel Cole Palmer might also not fit this leadership role.”
