Hi, my name is Chumsy and I’ll be giving Premier League predictions this season.
My gameweek 17 guest is Lion.
LION has been an Arsenal fan for 22 years +. He says, “I cannot remember the exact moment I started supporting Arsenal. I think it was after France 98. I loved the French team and since Arsenal had some French Players, It was just natural to move with them. Also, I enjoyed listening to Arsene Wenger. The philosophy and the style of football Arsenal played was just in sync with my love for the game.”
His best Arsenal moments are so many… The Unbeaten Season remains Unbeatable for him. The UEFA Champions League final loss remains his worst ever moment as an Arsenal fan.

CHUMSY (AND GUESTS) PREMIER LEAGUE PREDICTION for GAMEWEEK 17
A correct result (picking a win, draw, or defeat) is worth 10 points. The exact score earns 30 points.
CHUMSY’S FORECAST
Too many fixtures during the festive period have made Premier league games unpredictable.
I’ve picked home wins for Everton, ManUtd, Tottenham, Palace, Burnley, and Chelsea, although the latter may end in a draw.
I picked draws for the Bur-Ful and Wba-Ars games. The young lads at Arsenal seem to have the desire to win games but the game against Big Sam won’t be easy.
I expect Leicester and Liverpool to win away from home.

Everton vs West Ham United

Manchester United vs Aston Villa
