Chale, chale, chale! Welcome back to The Kicking It Crew! If you’re listening to this, you know we are recording on a Friday, and tomorrow, Saturday, September 27th, 2025, is going to be mad for football! I’m your host, Wiz, and with me—as always—is my brother from another mother, the man who knows football better than he knows his own name, Kwame Mensah!

Kwame Mensah

Haha, what up, Kicking It Crew family! It’s your boy Kwame Mensah, ready to dive into these beautiful fixtures! Wiz, my man, tomorrow is not just another Saturday, it’s a football festival o. We get proper derby, top teams, the works… my mind is already at the stadium, you feel me?

wizz

Ei, I dey feel your vibe! Let’s just jump in, no long talk. We’re talking about the biggest matchups Premier League go throw at us tomorrow. First up, Brentford vs. Man United. Kwame, this one fit twist—United dey do anyhow lately.

Kwame Mensah

For real. United dey play like, today hot, tomorrow cold; dey just confuse everybody. Brentford at home too, you know say dem no dey joke. Pressing for days! But United—no matter how strange dem dey play—always get that luck somewhere, somehow. I fit see a last-minute penalty or something sneaky. Small 1-0 win for United, but dem for sweat for am.

wizz

You dey talk true. United their wahala dey tire me sef, but okay, I go allow your prediction. Next: Manchester City vs. Burnley. Chale, dis one be like dem give small pikin free hand for waakye pot—City go clear am finish. Haaland go dance, the whole squad go score.

Kwame Mensah

Hahaha! As you talk am, Wiz. Burnley get good spirit under Kompany, but City for Etihad? Bro, forget. E fit be five, it fit even pass. But I go mellow—City 4-0. Burnley go chop lashing, no mercy at all.

wizz

No contest, City get that one. Now Chelsea vs. Brighton—this one get proper attacking vibe, but both their defenses dey leak like pure water sachet. Stamford Bridge go feel tension small.

Kwame Mensah

Chee, Brighton dey ball well, and Chelsea, dem need points badly. E go be pure wahala this game. Both sides go score, I dey feel a 2-2 draw, real end-to-end stuff. Nobody go get clean sheet, trust me.

wizz

You dey look draw? I go give small home advantage to Chelsea. Dem dey under fire, fans dey on their neck. I say 2-1 Chelsea—proper scrappy win, dem go hustle dis one out.

Kwame Mensah

Fair enough, Wiz. Now onto Serie A for a minute—Juventus vs. Atalanta, always fire. Classic battle lines. But wait—before I forget, I remember that time I dey Accra, we dey watch Juve-Atalanta inside one kiosk. Atalanta nearly come back from 3-0, the whole place just explode! People dey jump, drinks dey fly, you know Accra style. Football get power, man!

wizz

Haha, I dey picture am! Atalanta be wild card. Dem fit score three in five minutes, but Juve—dem get that defensive steel, real catenaccio. Dis one go tight but Juve edge am, you see?

Kwame Mensah

Exactly, I dey with you. Juve for home rarely dey slip. Atalanta go try, but Juve defense be tight pass bank vault. I dey call Juve 1-0, like corner header or something technical.

wizz

I go tweak am small—Juve 2-1. Atalanta no easy to blank totally, but Juve go close the shop for dem last minute.

Kwame Mensah

Last Serie A one: Cagliari vs. Inter Milan. Omo, this one be clear. Inter go flex muscle, Cagliari dey struggle relegation. E go fit be ugly—Inter all the way.

wizz

Simple. Inter too strong. 3-0, they go control am from kickoff. E go be like undertakers against the champions, no contest.

Kwame Mensah

Facts. 3-0, no two ways. Unless Cagliari do juju, but I no dey see am.

wizz

But wait, Kwame, before we comot Europe—Madrid derby dey call us! Big one: Atlético Madrid vs. Real Madrid. This be the main event!

Kwame Mensah

Chale, forget everytin—this be wahala match. Madrid form dey blaze, Bellingham dey shine, but Atlético dey live for this kinda vibe. Simeone go turn am rough, dem stadium go dey shake, proper street fight football. Real go dey think say dem go chill, then Atlético go bite.

wizz

Simeone be master of dark arts. E go frustrate Madrid the whole match. But the thing be, Madrid quality dey. If Bellingham or even one of the new boys find space, Atlético plan fit just scatter.

Kwame Mensah

Atmosphere at Metropolitano? Fire. Fans no dey smile. I dey feel upset o—Atlético 1-0, set piece, bodies everywhere. Cholismo spirit! E go rough.

wizz

I fit see your point, but Real too dey resilient. I no fit bet against dem right now. I dey go Madrid 2-1, Bellingham magic, dem go manage escape. Classic derby, plenty drama, you go see!

Kwame Mensah

Chale! Tomorrow we go witness yawa or joy—no middle ground!

wizz

Omo, September 27th set up like super Saturday! Goals, drama, all the fire.

Kwame Mensah
