EPL Round #5 Fearless Predictions

David Beckham is working at Target, Asamoah Gyan went on loan to the UAE and TFC got pummeled in Mexico in the CONCACAF Champions League. Furthermore, AEK Athens were also humbled away from home to Anderlecht in the Europa League. Football is back and let's not waste any time with our Round #5 fearless predictions.

Blackburn - Arsenal (1-1)
Two of the biggest disappointments thus far in the EPL take center stage in the early game on Saturday morning. Both teams will cancel each other out and a draw will be the fairest result.

Aston Villa - Newcastle (0-0)
Both teams are having trouble scoring goals while Newcastle have established themselves as draw experts, so without a doubt it is better to go with a dull and bore nil-nil.

Everton - Wigan (1-0)
Everton should grab three points against Wigan. However, who scores goals for Everton? Currently their best formation is a 4-6-0 playing without a natural striker. It will be a struggle for Everton but they will grab the only goal in this match.

Bolton - Norwich City (2-0)
Finally Bolton have a manageable game against promoted Norwich after their early run of games against City, United and Liverpool. Three points in the bag, baby!

Wolverhampton - QPR (2-1)
Even though QPR has added Premier League talent to their arsenal in during the transfer window I can't see them yet forming a cohesive unit that will derail the train that is Wolverhampton Wolves.

Swansea City - West Brom (1-0)
Simply put the first goal for Swansea in the EPL will lead to the club's first victory and three points. Let's go with Scott Sinclair to score the winning goal.

Tottenham - Liverpool (2-2)
Spurs rested all of their key players in the midweek Europa League match against PAOK, so we should expect a fully rested Spurs in this match-up against Liverpool. The Reds are on the upward trajectory and will do well to grab a point at White Hart Lane.

Sunderland - Stoke City (2-1)
Peter Crouch will trouble Sunderland's back four and probably will nick a goal for the Potters, but Sunderland will get goals from Bendtner and Larrson as they get their first victory of the season.

Fulham - Manchester City (0-2)
The second best team in Manchester and England will go to London and grab three points due to goals from Aguero and Dzeko. The attacking prowess that City is possess is absolutely frighting.

Manchester United - Chelsea (2-1)
The key match-up of the weekend is the final game of the weekend. Furthermore, in the United States and Canada the match will be on FOX, albeit on delay, but still the fact that the EPL is on basic North American television is a fantastic achievement. As for the match, De Gea will make an error and Rooney will grab a brace as United are tested but rarely troubled in this victory against Chelsea.

Fearless Predictions
19-20
