Weekend Premier League Fixtures – What to Expect

Introduction: Premier League Action Returns

The English Premier League returns for the weekend fixtures after the FIFA International break. Here’s what to expect.

Manchester City vs Liverpool

The Etihad will be the venue for one of the biggest games of the weekend as Manchester City face Liverpool on Saturday afternoon. This fixture will be crucial for Pep Guardiola and his men, who are currently eight points behind league leaders Arsenal. City will need to win the game to maintain any hope of catching up with the Gunners. However, they could be without their star striker Erling Haaland, who missed the international break due to a groin injury.

Arsenal vs Leeds

Arsenal will be looking to increase their lead at the top of the table as they face Leeds in what could be an easy match for the Gunners. Arsenal are currently eight points ahead of Manchester City and expected to win comfortably at home. However, they shouldn’t get complacent, as Leeds could cause an upset.

Everton vs Tottenham

After sacking Antonio Conte during the international break, Tottenham travel to Goodison Park to face Everton on Monday evening. The Toffees have been impressive against bigger teams this season, beating Arsenal earlier in the campaign. Spurs are currently sitting in fourth place in the table, but this match will be a test of their resilience and character after their manager’s departure.

Chelsea’s Draw with Everton

Chelsea’s three-game winning run ended with a 2-2 draw against Everton before the international break. Everton are a team fighting relegation, but they have the ability to cause upsets. All eyes will be on Graham Potter’s Aston Villa to see how they respond to that draw going into this weekend’s fixtures.
