The Premier League was back with a bang last week. With 27 goals scored and just 2 goalless draws, there was much action for starved football souls such as myself. There were impressive victories for Manchester City, Liverpool, Burnley and Brighton HA. The most impressive would undoubtedly by the 4 – 0 thumping of Chelsea by Manchester United.

Here are the score lines from Game Week 1 with my predictions in parenthesis.

LIV 4 – 1 NOR (LIV 4 – 0) *

WHU 0 – 5 MCI (WHU 1 – 3) *

BOU 1 – 1 SHU (BOU 3 – 0 SHU)

BUR 3 – 0 (BUR 1 – 2 SOU)

CRY 0 – 0 EVE (CRY 0 – 2 EVE)

WAT 0 – 3 BHA (WAT 2 – 1 BHA)

TOT 3 – 1 AVL (TOT 3 – 1 AVL) ***

LEI 0 – 0 WOL (LEI 2 – 2 WOL) *

NEW 0 – 1 ARS (NEW 1 – 3 ARS) *

MUN 4 – 0 CHE (MUN 2 – 1 CHE) *
