17 August 2025 Disciplinary issues could affect Nottingham Forest's performance through Elliot Anderson, who has received four yellow cards in his last five league matches. However, the English midfielder remains an important part of the team thanks to his average of three tackles and 1.9 fouls won per 90 minutes, demonstrating his fighting spirit and ability to disrupt opposition play. Between the posts, Forest will rely on Matz Sels, who dominated Premier League defensive statistics. The Belgian goalkeeper not only recorded the joint-most clean sheets among all league goalkeepers (13), but also averaged 3.2 saves per 90 minutes. He proved his consistency by making at least three saves in six of his last nine league appearances. Brentford will depend on the creativity of Mikkel Damsgaard, who was among the most productive assist providers in the Premier League last season. Only three players recorded more assists than the Danish midfielder (10), while his 63 chances created wa...

16 August 2025 Wolverhampton will rely on the defensive strength of João Gomes, who was among the most active tackling players in the Premier League last season. The Brazilian midfielder was one of only nine players to achieve an average of at least 3.5 tackles per 90 minutes (minimum 900 minutes played). He confirmed his reliability by making at least three tackles in five of his last six starts. Manchester City arrive with Erling Haaland, who has an excellent record against Wolves. The Norwegian striker has scored eight Premier League goals against Wolverhampton - he only has more against West Ham United (9). Haaland demonstrated his shooting activity against this opponent by attempting 2+ shots in three of his five matches against them. The most interesting addition for the Citizens is Rayan Cherki, who dominated France's Ligue 1 in creative statistics. No player with a minimum of 900 minutes played achieved a higher average of chances created per 90 minutes (3.3) or assists...

16 August 2025 Morgan Rogers ended last season's Premier League campaign in exceptional form, contributing to seven goals in his final nine matches (1 goal, 6 assists). The Aston Villa midfielder also demonstrated his defensive capabilities, recording 2+ tackles in three of his previous five appearances, showcasing his all-around contribution to the team. Discipline could be a factor for Villa's Boubacar Kamara, who has conceded exactly two fouls in five of his last six Premier League outings, including in the previous encounter against Newcastle United in April. This consistency in fouling patterns suggests an area of concern for the French midfielder. Newcastle United boast two of the Premier League's most fouled players from last season. Bruno Guimarães topped the charts with 108 fouls won, while Anthony Gordon claimed third place with 71. The Brazilian midfielder proved particularly effective at drawing fouls, winning and earning at least two fouls each in 15 differ...

On the visitors' side, Florian Wirtz stands out, having recorded 12 assists in last season's Bundesliga - the second-highest tally after Michael Olise. The German midfielder creates an average of 2.2 chances per match. Antoine Semenyo represents Bournemouth's offensive threat with an average of 3.5 shots per game last season. In his last three league encounters with Liverpool, he has registered at least three attempts on goal in each match. Thanks to Stats Perform for the data More information: 24live.com

The match offers a clash between two teams with different ambitions at the end of the season. SK Sigma Olomouc have won just one of the last eight Chance Liga matches – a 3-0 home victory against České Budějovice on matchday 30. Since matchday 26, only Slovácko and Bohemians have as few wins as Sigma (1; D3 L4), with only České Budějovice recording no win in this timeframe. The home team is thus experiencing a significant results slump. FC Viktoria Plzeň have exactly as many points (68) as they had at this stage of the previous Chance Liga season.
