The champions of the first and second tiers of the English football pyramid clash. Bielsa’s dogmatic style which has inspired a few great Premier League managers against the pragmatic heavy metal of Jurgen Klopp. This was a game to behold, truly bombastic, with seven goals scored at a breath-taking pace. Over the Bar have tactically analysed the challengers and been hugely impressed. We also discuss game theory for defenders and Sodiq’s predictions for the Premier League 2020/21 Top 3.

Enjoy!
