In the big match between Liverpool and Arsenal (10:30 p.m. on August 31), the future of coach Ruben Amorim will be the most concerned factors.

Last chance for coach Ruben Amorim?

Immediately after Man United's disastrous defeat to fourth-tier Grimsby Town in the League Cup, coach Ruben Amorim fell into the group of managers facing the highest risk of being sacked in the Premier League.

And this weekend's match will be one of the last chances for coach Amorim to hold on to his increasingly shaky position. Luckily for the Portuguese strategist, Man United only have to face newly promoted Burnley, in a match taking place at 9pm on August 30.

Burnley are weak, but the problem lies with the "red devils". Once they have lost to Grimsby Town, they can lose to any team in the top flight of England.

Coach Amorim is still struggling with the 3-4-3 formation, a tactic that is considered unsuitable for English football. In terms of personnel, the "Red Devils" also do not have the right person, to the point that coach Amorim had to pull Bruno Fernandes down to play central midfield. And use weak players like Amad Diallo as full-back.

Up front, Man United currently have many stars. But all are having problems. Sesko is playing very badly, Mbeumo and Cunha are better but are psychologically affected after missing 11m kicks in the loss to Grimsby Town.

Deciding the championship race

Taking place a day later is the big match between Liverpool and Arsenal - one of the matches considered to decide the championship race.

Arsenal received bad news when Saka had to miss this match due to injury. Saka and Havertz were forced to sit out, while conductor Odegaard was also uncertain about his ability to play. In the worst case, coach Arteta would have to field the trio of new recruits Zubimendi, Eze and Madueke at the same time.

As for Liverpool, they have the home field advantage as well as the strongest squad in this match. Mac Allister, after missing the previous match, is ready to return. Bradley is also fully fit to fill in for Frimpong - the only mainstay absent due to injury.

Despite having a strong attack, Liverpool's defense has shown many problems in the early stages of the season. Liverpool will certainly face an Arsenal playing defensive counter-attack in this match. And against that style of play, Liverpool's defense often makes mistakes.
