2018-19 Premier League Preview: In this football-language podcast we preview the 2018-19 Premier League season. Can Manchester City retain their title or will their city rivals United challenge them? How will Liverpool fare with their new signings and what about Chelsea and Arsenal with their new managers in charge? Which teams will face a relegation battle and which teams will turn out to be dark horses?

DF: You are listening to languagecaster.com’s football-language podcast. Welcome everyone to the podcast for all those interested in improving their English skills and who love the beautiful game of football. My name is Damian and I am here in a slightly cooler London – the temperatures have finally dropped here – and as many of our regular listeners will know the other half of the languagecaster team is Damon and he’s in Tokyo and although today he cannot be with us ‘live’ – we will, however, be hearing from him later on in the show.
It’s the first weekend of the new Premier League season and already there has been lots of excitement, great goals and of course some controversy and although the pre-season seemed to be very short it’s great to have club football back! Now, on this week’s podcast we will be giving our predictions for this season – hopefully you won’t be laughing too much at them at the end of the season
