  • Why Man United have NO CHANCE against Liverpool

    Edge of the Box returns to preview the weekend's action as Dan Bardell, George Elek and Jonathan Wilson look ahead to gameweek 16.


    Liverpool's welcome of Manchester United is the game of the weekend as Erik ten Hag seeks to avoid a repeat of last season's 7-0 mauling at Anfield.


    However, he'll have to do so without the services of the suspended Bruno Fernandes, while United have their fair share of injury issues to contend with. Surely another 7-0 isn't on the cards... right!?


    Trent Alexander-Arnold is the Premier League's form player as the panel assess his recent impact for the Reds, while they draw comparisons between Darwin Nunez and Rasmus Hojlund with the latter struggling in his debut season in England. Virgil van Dijk has had more shots than Hojlund this campaign after all...


    Attention then turns to the Sean Dyche Derby as Burnley welcome Everton to Turf Moor. The Toffees have quickly moved out of the relegation zone following their 10-point deduction and would be 10th(!) had they not been penalised.


    Finally, Chelsea are the team in focus as the Blues struggle for consistency under Mauricio Pochettino. Is there a sustainable plan in place at Stamford Bridge?


    All that and more are covered in Edge of the Box!

  • Arsenal in line for another Unai Emery Masterclass at Villa?

    Dan Bardell is joined this week by George Elek and Sam Tighe to preview the weekend's Premier League action.


    Aston Villa's welcome of Arsenal is the headline fixture this weekend. Villa's 14-game winning run at Villa Park started after their loss to the Arsenal in this fixture last season. Will they extend that streak on Saturday?


    Manchester City's trip to Luton is also on the cards after the Hatters came close to earning a result against the Gunners in midweek. Will Rob Edwards oversee a return to winning ways at City's expense?


    Finally, Nottingham Forest are the team in focus after their 5-0 loss at Fulham piled the pressure on Steve Cooper. Forest lose a number of players to AFCON in the New Year in what could be a testing period for the side.

  • Why Tottenham risk a BATTERING at Man City

    Edge of the Box returns with Dan Bardell, George Elek and Jonathan Wilson here to preview all of the weekend's Premier League action.


    First up is Tottenham's trip to Manchester City. Ange Postecoglou's side have lost three on the bounce after a lightning start to the Premier League season. Can they get a result at the Etihad?


    Manchester United head north to face Newcastle at St James' Park after both sides were held to draws in Europe midweek. Which side will come out on top?


    All that and more is covered on Edge of the Box ahead of gameweek 14.

  • Will Manchester United EVER be good again?!

    Edge of the Box is back once again with Dan Bardell, George Elek and Sam Tighe here to preview all of the weekend's Premier League action.


    First up is Liverpool's trip to Manchester City. Jurgen Klopp's side haven't been victorious at the Etihad in the league since 2015 but after conceding four against Chelsea, is this the best time to play the reigning Champions?


    Everton welcome Manchester United to Goodison on Sunday for their first fixture since the announcement of their ten-point deduction. They will need to start getting points on the board, and quickly, if they are to secure safety, will they pick up three here?


    All that and more is covered on Edge of the Box ahead of gameweek 13.

  • Where does Eddie Howe rank amongst Premier League managers?

    Edge of the Box is here to grace your screens once more as Dan Bardell, George Elek and Jonathan Wilson preview the weekend's Premier League action.


    First up is Newcastle's trip to Bournemouth. Eddie Howe returns to his old stomping ground in the midst of an injury crisis and the main question on the panel's minds is: Where does Howe rank among the Premier League's best managers?


    Chelsea welcome Manchester City to Stamford Bridge for the final Premier League game ahead of the international break. Can they build upon their crazy 4-1 win at Tottenham? Or is the welcome of this City side a bridge too far for Mauricio Pochettino's men?


    All that and more is covered on Edge of the Box ahead of gameweek 12.

  • Aston Villa can reinforce their Champions League credentials this weekend

    Edge of the Box is back once again to preview the weekend's Premier League action as Sam Tighe and the returning George Elek join Dan Bardell in looking ahead to another exciting round of Premier League fixtures.


    Tottenham's welcome of Chelsea is first up this week as the panel address the elephant in the room - Pochettino's return to north London. Will Poch spoil the Postecoglou party at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium? One of the guys thinks so...


    Arsenal make the trip to Newcastle on Saturday evening as they look to quickly move on from their Carabao Cup exit on Wednesday night. Not the game they'd want as they seek to maintain their unbeaten start.


    Aston Villa are the team in focus this week as they look to - dare we say it - reinforce their Champions League credentials at Nottingham Forest's expense on Sunday. They are one of the form sides in the division after all!

  • MAGUIRE VS HAALAND | United to stop City’s attack?

    There is a feast of football in the Premier League this weekend and Edge of the Box is on hand to preview the action. Dan Bardell is joined by Jonathan Wilson and Ali Maxwell to take a closer look at gameweek 10.


    The main attraction this weekend is the Manchester derby, with Erik ten Hag's side hosting their cross-city rivals at Old Trafford on Sunday. Harry Maguire's resurgence has emerged as a major talking point, but the England man will now be tasked with keeping the ever-prolific Erling Haaland quiet. Who will prevail?


    Wolves' welcome of Newcastle also falls under the microscope this weekend, while questions are asked of Bournemouth's start to the season and their decision to replace Gary O'Neil with Andoni Iraola in the summer.


    All of that and more is discussed ahead of gameweek 10 in the Premier League.

  • Liverpool vs Everton | Emulating Bellingham, Trent's role and stopping Salah

    After a LONG international break, Edge of the Box returns to preview the weekend's Premier League action!


    Dan Bardell is joined by Sam Tighe and late stand-in Ali Maxwell to take a look at gameweek 9.


    The Merseyside Derby is the focus of the panel's attention this week, with Trent Alexander-Arnold's role called into question. The Liverpool right-back hasn't made a great start to the campaign and this may be exploited by Everton at Anfield.


    Chelsea's welcome of Arsenal is also touched upon as the Blues look to earn a third successive league win at the Gunners' expense. Cole Palmer has started Chelsea's last two victories, with the summer signing's impact discussed, as is Raheem Sterling's form and Arsenal's win over Manchester City WITHOUT Bukayo Saka.


    Finally, Tottenham are the team in focus this week. Ange Postecoglou's side top the Premier League as we return to domestic duties - Could they go all the way!?


    All that and more is discussed on this week's episode.

  • Arsenal vs Man City: The BEST TACTICAL battle of the season so far

    There is a feast of football in the Premier League this weekend and Edge of the Box is on hand to preview the action. Dan Bardell is joined by George Elek and Sam Tighe to take a closer look at gameweek 8.


    The main attraction this weekend is Manchester City's trip to Arsenal. City have lost their last two games without the suspended Rodri, but the Gunners also have key absences with Bukayo Saka and Gabriel Martinelli potentially out. Nevertheless, we should witness a tactical showdown for the history books when Mikel Arteta and Pep Guardiola lock horns once more.


    West Ham's welcome of Newcastle also falls under the microscope this week, while Wolves are the team in focus as they finally look well-equipped to put the ball in the back of the net.


    All of that and more is discussed ahead of gameweek 8.

  • Maddison vs Salah: Premier League's BEST players face off as Spurs host Liverpool

    Welcome to the latest episode of Edge of the Box as Dan Bardell is joined by George Elek and Jonathan Wilson to preview the weekend's Premier League action.


    Tottenham's welcome of Liverpool is first on the agenda as the panel take a closer look at Spurs' defence, the importance of Curtis Jones for the Reds and whether Darwin Nunez is set for his breakthrough season for Jurgen Klopp's side.


    Brighton's trip to Aston Villa also falls under the microscope as Dan takes the lead on Villa's season so far. Has their been a stylistic change under Unai Emery? They do look very open! On the contrary, Brighton have made a fine start under Roberto De Zerbi, who isn't afraid to rotate.


    Finally, Fulham are the team in focus this week, with Joao Palhinha arguably now their most important player following Aleksandar Mitrovic's summer exit.


    All that and more is discussed ahead of gameweek 7.
