Chelsea vs Arsenal, Man Utd & Liverpool: Shearer predicts crunch weekend in EPL

Former England and Newcastle United legend Alan Shearer has offered his verdict on some of the weekend’s most high-profile fixtures in the Premier League (EPL), tipping clashes involving Chelsea F.C., Arsenal F.C., Manchester United F.C. and Liverpool F.C. for dramatic outcomes. According to Dailypost

Shearer singled out the London derby between Chelsea and Arsenal as the headline act this weekend. On that fixture, he predicts a narrow win for Chelsea  a prediction that could shake up the league standings.

According to him, Chelsea’s home advantage and desire to close the gap give them an edge over the league-leading Arsenal.

Beyond the London derby, Shearer also spoke on the games involving Manchester United and Liverpool. He tipped Liverpool to come out on top in their match, citing their consistency and attacking firepower.

For Manchester United, still under pressure to deliver results, Shearer believes the weekend offers a chance to bounce back  although he did not specify the exact outcome for them this time.

While Shearer’s predictions give Chelsea and Liverpool the edge this weekend, not everyone agrees. Some pundits and fans doubt a Chelsea win over Arsenal is likely  arguing the London derby often ends in a draw because of its intensity and defensive caution.

Others point out that in a league as unpredictable as the EPL, form and momentum on the day could easily defy predictions.

Still, the sharpness of Shearer’s call adds drama to what many expect to be a defining weekend for title hopefuls and contenders alike.

With Arsenal currently leading the table, a loss to Chelsea would tighten the title race once again, offering chasing clubs renewed hope. A Liverpool win would strengthen their push for top-four qualification, while a United win would ease mounting pressure on them.

Fans across Nigeria and beyond should be glued to their screens this weekend.

As Shearer himself put it: “This weekend’s games could set the tone for the rest of the season.” Indeed, whether his predictions hold true or not  one thing is certain: it promises to be a weekend every EPL fan will remember.
