The English Premier League 2023 is off to an electrifying start, showcasing a whirlwind of shocks, upsets, and enthralling matches over just two weeks. As we examine the teams’ performances in the opening two games, we also provide some early predictions for the unfolding season.
Manchester United: An Early Upset?
Manchester United, one of the favorites to win the English Premier League 2023, have to encounter an early blow as Tottenham Hotspur has managed to beat United by playing a comprehensive game on Saturday. United had their chances but failed to make an impact while the Spurs attacked pretty hard and managed to score two goals in the second half to steal the game. Man United’s first game against the Wolves was not up to the mark as well but they still won 1-0.
Liverpool: A Good Start?
Liverpool had a good start with a win and a draw to start their season in the English Premier League 2023. Their first game against Chelsea was a tough one with both teams striving for the win but in the end, the match resulted in a draw of 1-1. But they bounced back in their next game against Bournemouth, dominating the game and winning 3-1. Liverpool certainly has the potential and the team to go further and finish in the top 5.

Manchester City: The Perfect Start?
Currently ranked 2nd on the points table, Manchester City has opened its season with two consecutive wins. The City’s attack managed to break through Burnley’s defence in the first game and win comprehensively by a margin of 3-0. However, they had to face some trouble in their second game against Newcastle but still managed to pull it off by 1-0. They had a perfect start that any team could wish for but things could change pretty quickly and they would need to continue this good form to retain this position at the points table.
Chelsea: Not the Start They Wanted?
Chelsea has had a pretty average season so far with their first game against Liverpool being a draw. They had some positives from that match. Their second match against West Ham United turned out to be a defeat after they missed a couple of chances. It was a tough game with both teams giving their best but the result wasn’t in Chelsea’s favour as they lost 3-1 turning out to be another upset in the season.
In conclusion, the English Premier League 2023 is shaping up nicely with several upsets and thrilling games and we can expect the same with the upcoming games.
