After taking a week to allow players to join their international teams for World Cup tune-ups, the Premier League returns to action on Saturday with a full schedule of games. Although Manchester City has all but clinched the League Championship, there’s still likely to be a dogfight to land in the top four and assure a Champions League berth for next year. The weekly EPL Swarm took a good look at these games and came back with this set of predictions.
Although the most-anticipated match on this week’s schedule will be Chelsea hosting Tottenham at Stamford Bridge, the swarm clearly wanted no part in predicting that match. The contest they had their highest confidence in for the weekend is the one between United and Swansea City at Old Trafford. United are formidable at home, something the swarm seems keenly aware of.
Though the Swans have been playing better soccer under colorful new manager Carlos Carvalhal, the swarm’s prediction here shows a conviction that the Red Devils are likely to simply be too much for them. The replay above shows a rapid consensus that forms on a 2-goals-plus win; that confidence was buttressed when the group eventually picked this game over Man. City’s match at Everton as their pick of the week.
