Former Liverpool man, Jamie Carragher, has predicted the outcome of the Premier League game between Bournemouth and Manchester United.
He predicted that Bournemouth would defeat Manchester United while Chelsea would overcome Tottenham in Premier League game week eight.
The former Liverpool and England defender said that United’s challenging campaign will continue on Sunday, resulting in a 2-0 defeat to Bournemouth at Old Trafford.
He also feels that Chelsea would triumph over Spurs by 2-0 on Saturday.
The Red Devils’ 4-1 Champions League loss in an away fixture against Como has extended their streak without a victory to seven consecutive matches across all competitions.
Manager Michael Carrick offered an apology to the travelling supporters following the match and characterized the performance as ‘unacceptable’.
Manchester United have just one victory in seven Premier League matches this season and currently occupy 13th position in the standings.
Carragher is convinced that their poor sequence of performances will persist this Sunday.
Beyond predicting Chelsea to secure a 2-0 victory against Spurs, Carragher also made predictions regarding other Premier League encounters including Arsenal vs Everton and Liverpool versus Brighton & Hove Albion.
He said, “What an excellent selection of fixtures we have in the Premier League this weekend. I believe Arsenal will encounter no difficulties in defeating Everton, particularly considering their exceptional performance throughout this season.
“However, Brighton may encounter greater challenges at Anfield as I anticipate Liverpool will end their winning run. In other matches, I foresee Chelsea prevailing against Spurs in a home fixture on Saturday.”
Manchester City maintain a three-point lead over Arsenal in the Premier League table. They are scheduled to play against Aston Villa in Saturday’s early fixture.
