Predicted Lineups for ALL 20 Premier League teams: Gameweek 8
Averaging 89% accuracy so far! ✅
💎🟢🟡🟠🔴 = Likelihood of a start
(%) = Accuracy on previous predictions
🆕 = New players in the lineup
⚠️ = Concerns
ARSENAL: (90%)
🆕 Madueke
⚠️ Hincapie, Saliba, Saka, Tzolis
With Saka’s injury looking bad, Madueke takes up the spot on the right with Eze on the left.
Timber started midweek, White likelier for this one.
99% - Rice, Gabriel, Calafiori, Raya
85% - Odegaard, Madueke, Konsa
70% - Havertz, Eze, White
50% - Bruno G
ASTON VILLA: (88%)
🆕 Maatsen, McGinn, Mbaye
⚠️ Wan-Bissaka, Ruggeri, Manzambi, Onana
Maatsen has returned to training, and I'd be surprised if Aston Villa play a back 5 against Manchester City.
Keep an eye out for Manzambi news, Emery will absolutely want him to start.
Pretty sure one of Mbaye or Alysson starts in his absence, McGinn absolutely needed for off the ball work.
99% - Jackson, Suzuki
85% - Lindelof, McGinn, Kamara, Joao Gomes
70% - Pau, Buendia
50% - Cash, Maatsen, Mbaye
BOURNEMOUTH: (94%)
🆕 Kluivert
⚠️ Milosavljevic, Scott, Kroupi
Confident enough to say quite a few of these players are nailed now, given they are all starting twice a week, Kluivert the only one I’d be iffy on.
Hill at right back was interesting midweek, I wonder if that could happen in the league.
99% - Evanilson, Tavernier, Rayan, Adams, Silva, Truffert, Hill
85% - Christie, Petrovic
70% - Kluivert, Smith
BRENTFORD: (88%)
🆕 Sangare, Schade, Damsgaard
⚠️ Schuster, Janelt, Yarmoliuk
With double suspensions in midfield, Sangare almost certainly has to start here.
Schade back to fitness.
Collins was on the bench, keep an eye on the press conference because he could be fit enough to start and I’m currently not sure who it’d be for right now.
Still don’t know if £40m Diouf will even be a starter.
99% - Thiago, Kelleher
85% - Schade, Jensen, Sangare, Kayode
70% - Damsgaard, Anthony, Ajer, Van Den Berg
50% - Lewis-Potter
BRIGHTON: (91%)
⚠️ Wieffer, Struijk, Mitoma, Minteh, Azeez
Unchanged.
Don’t see anything other than the strongest XI against Liverpool.
Hinshelwood might start, but I think Hurzeler will want Andres with Groß to bolster the midfield.
I am almost certain De Cuyper and Gomez were just fully rested midweek.
99% - De Cuyper, Groß, Vuskovic, Verbruggen
85% - Kostoulas, Gomez, Ayari, Kadioglu, Boscagli
70% - Andres, Dunk
CHELSEA: (82%)
🆕 Penders
⚠️ Martinez, Chavarria, Gusto, James, Gittens
Aside from the obvious change in goal, no other changes expected.
Alonso has shown he will alternate between back 3 and back 4.
Another to watch for info about Chavarria.
99% - Joao Pedro, Rogers, Palmer, Penders
85% - Caicedo, Neto, Colwill, Lacroix
70% - Hato, Henderson, Acheampong
COVENTRY: (90%)
⚠️ Amenda, Wright
Unchanged.
Lots of nailed, but some maybes.
Cherif vs Awoniyi up top, will Mason-Clark come back in, and can Onyeka displace Yirenkyi.
99% - Rudoni, Grimes, Dasilva, Pinnock, Thomas, Van Ewijk, Rushworth
85% - Thomas-Asante
70% - Cherif, Yirenkyi
50% - Sakamoto
CRYSTAL PALACE: (84%)
🆕 Mateta, Sarr, Disasi
⚠️ Henderson, Tomiyasu, Chadi Riad, Timber, Strand Larsen
Disasi comes straight back in from suspension.
Mateta to start up top, he looked far better midweek and Strand Larsen went off injured.
Timber a doubt, makes it easier to slot Sarr in as one of the #10’s with Kamada alongside Wharton.
99% - Khalaili, Richards, Benitez
85% - Mateta, Kamada, Wharton, Mitchell, Disasi
70% - Cannot
50% - Yeremy, Sarr
EVERTON: (86%)
🆕 Johnson
No injuries!
Armstrong, Hackney and now Norgaard all competing for that spot in midfield.
Chance Garner plays right back to allow one of the other midfielders to start, but I think a natural right back is still more likely.
I give up with that right winger spot, Röhl starting was the last straw.
99% - Barry, Dewsbury-Hall, Garner, Branthwaite, Tarkowski, Pickford
85% - Grealish, Mykolenko
70% - Maitland-Niles
50% - Armstrong
<50% - Johnson
FULHAM: (95%)
