ARSENAL FC - MANCHESTER UNITED
An all English derby to start the day. The Gunners arrive at their third match in fourth place with 9 points in their pocket, thanks two wins by Roksa and another from INDOMINATOR. Ostrybuch have yet to score and have not even scored a goal, so it is expected that he will do so in the next matchday. Just below them and tied on points, a Red Devils on an upward trajectory will make things difficult for them. They are coming from two wins against AC Milan and want to reach the podium places to secure a place in the knockout phase. With this scenario, the English derby is hotter than ever!
It has not been a good start to the season for the reigning champions, who currently rest in penultimate place, after just 1 win and 2 draws in 6 games. For their part, the Rossoneri surprised everyone with their triple win in the first matchday that lifted them to the top spot, but they suffered a setback last matchday against Manchester United, taking just one point out of a possible 9. Both teams want to stay in the top half of the table and this match could decide which of the two will be able to do so.
The Giallorossi remain solidly in third place on 10 points and tied with second-placed AC Milan. After a win and a draw against AS Monaco, AS Roma will be looking to finish the third matchday at the top of the table or at least overtake their Italian rivals. For their part, FC Bayern started the first matchday with a strong start and moved into second place after two wins and a draw, but they suffered a major upset last matchday against FC Barcelona, losing two of their matches by the narrowest of margins.
FC Inter are anchored to the bottom with only 3 points scored by ArdaGolaaazooo last matchday against Arsenal's Ostrybuch. The Italians need to score strongly this matchday to avoid falling behind and to strengthen themselves they have decided to make a change to their squad, 7 times German champion EL_Matador replaces Christopher_M_M_M for the rest of the season in order to start picking up points for the Nerazurri. They will not have it easy, as they will face the current competition leaders, FC Barcelona who are strong this season, with a solid Ettorito97, an Alex Alguacil improving with every game and a The Palma who although lacking in scoring, do not lose games.
