Beat The Flying Penguin - Premiership Scores Week 3


And so we move on to week 3 of the Premiership Season and the Penguin has been wandering the frozen wastelands of the South Pole looking for inspiration.

But first we take a look to see how the Penguin did in week 2l
 

Swansea City v West Ham United 2-0  Result 3-0
A correct home result here for the Penguin, who was mightily impressed with the Swans. 

Aston Villa v Everton 1-1 Result 1-3
Everton blew Villa away and with it the Penguins prediction, never bet against your own team!

Manchester United v Fulham 3-0 Result 3-2
A correct home win but the Penguin was unimpressed with Sir Alex’s boys, Fulham looked good for a point and they are playing well.

Norwich City v Queens Park Rangers 0-0 Result 1-1
A correct result, the only thing that surprised the penguin was that both teams managed to score.

Southampton v Wigan Athletic 3-1 Result 0-2
The penguin hangs his head in shame, Wigan looked really good and Southampton could not find the edge they needed.

Tottenham Hotspur v West Bromwich Albion 3-0 Result 1-1
The penguin was genuinely surprised by this one, first how inept Spurs were and secondly, how well WBA are playing.

Chelsea v Newcastle United 1-0 Result 2-0
A correct result and much as the penguin expected

Stoke City v Arsenal 2-1 Result 0-0
The penguin fell asleep during this one and woke up half way through Eastenders,

Liverpool v Manchester City 0-2  Result 2-2
Liverpool was the better team and on another day would have got all three points. But Skirtel’s abysmal back pass gave the penguin a year’s entertainment.

So there it is, the Flying Penguin week 2
Exact Score – Nil
Correct scores – 4
Wrong scores – 6

So not a good start for the season, but the penguin is hopeful that week 3 he can turn it around.

 

Saturday

West Ham United v Fulham 1-2
This is a difficult one, but Fulham have been very impressive and so should edge it.

Swansea City v Sunderland  1- 0
This will be tight but Swansea are flying at the moment and should edge this.

Tottenham Hotspur v Norwich City 2-0
Tottenham will come good and Norwich will find this very difficult

West Bromwich Albion v Everton 0-1
Never bet against your own team

Wigan Athletic v Stoke City 1-1
This has score draw written all over it

Manchester City v Queens Park Rangers 4-0
Enough said!

Sunday

Liverpool v Arsenal 2-0
Liverpool should hit this run running and get the result

Newcastle United v Aston Villa 2-0
This should be a home win for Newcastle as Villa will struggle to get this started

Southampton v Manchester United 0-1
United should have too much but this could easily be a draw
 

So there you are, the Flying Penguin has spoken from his advantage spot on a lonely ice covered hill.

But will he be right and will he do better than his 4 correct results last week?

Beat the Flying Penguin - Premiership Scores Week 2



All Right it is time to get the Premiership show on the road and see if you can beat the Flying Penguin!
It shouldn’t be too difficult
It is a Flying Penguin after all !!
Let us start with, the early start

Saturday
Swansea City v West Ham United 2-0
Going for a home win, Swansea should have too much in the tank for the Hammers. But Big Sam does have the ability to pull the rabbit out of the hat, but home advantage and attacking flair should be enough.

Aston Villa v Everton 1-1
Score draw, Paul Lamberts side need to win, but my team are playing well and look good defensively.

Manchester United v Fulham 3-0
Sir Alex will want to get the season going and Fulham will feel the full force of United.

Norwich City v Queens Park Rangers 0-0
Neither side will want to lose

Southampton v Wigan Athletic 3-1
A few goals but Southampton have the edge are looking threatening

Sunderland v Reading 1-0
Martin O’Neil’s team should be able to see off the new boys.

Tottenham Hotspur v West Bromwich Albion 3-0
AVB will want to have a good home start and his team will be up for this game

Chelsea v Newcastle United 1-0
This will be a tight game, but Chelsea should have the class to edge it.

Sunday

Stoke City v Arsenal 2-1
Tony Pulis’s side is a real handful and Arsenal will be lucky to get anything from this


Liverpool v Manchester City 0-2
Manchester City look good and Liverpool look at sea, so unless the new manager can get them playing in ‘his’ style I think the Reds will struggle

So there it is, the Flying Penguin has spoken

But is he right?

Can you do any better?
