🔗 Share this article Premier League: ten highlights to watch for this round of fixtures 1. Garnacho and Walker set for a new battle A Manchester reunion might be in store when the Clarets' Kyle Walker faces the Blues' Alejandro Garnacho in Lancashire. The attacker has started to settle at Stamford Bridge after his off-season signing from the Red Devils and displayed his skills versus Wolverhampton before the fixture pause. His assist for Pedro Neto combined blistering pace with a ideal grounded ball. His contribution for Malo Gusto entailed moving onto his right prior to dinking a cross across the goalmouth. His joyous moment with Neto, mirroring his earlier celebration with Kobbie Mainoo and Rasmus Højlund, was a reminder of how quickly situations evolve. The most recent instance Garnacho faced Walker? During the Argentine found the net for United in their Wembley triumph over Manchester City. Burnley vs Chelsea, Saturday afternoon 12:30 PM (all times GMT) 2. Semenyo vital to halting Bournemouth's slump Antoine Semenyo is getting the full transfer speculation focus due to a alleged £65m release clause for his possible mid-season move, the media setting him up for advancement out of the Premier League's average tier. That is predictable from a wide player with a half-dozen strikes plus three assists and is pleasurable to watch. Nonetheless, his side are in an difficult situation, having engaged in a role reversal: it is the relegation battlers West Ham who enter with consecutive triumphs, whereas Bournemouth have lost seven to one over two games over their previous two games following an strong opening to the season. Semenyo had his effort saved on the penalty by Emi Martínez in their four-nil loss by Aston Villa however confronting a defensive unit lacking a goalless game for months might be the best tonic. Bournemouth vs West Ham, Saturday 3:00 PM The striker a left-field choice for England It seemed notable to listen to Thomas Tuchel name-drop Danny Welbeck repeatedly during the international break despite the fact that the Brighton striker reaches 35 next week. “Without even knowing him, I know what he can offer me,” stated the England coach. “He might act as a stand-in for Harry [Kane] as a quite conventional centre-forward role.” Gaining the last of his 42 caps in 2018, it's quite plausible that Welbeck could be in the squad to the World Cup if he is able to continue his goal-getting feats. The ex- Manchester United and Arsenal striker boasts additional strikes over every other English footballer in England's top division this campaign with six and is anxious to boost that total as Brighton host Brentford this weekend. Brighton vs Brentford, Saturday 3:00 PM The full-back crucial as assist provider and goalscorer Sessegnon's story has brought a degree of positivity to Fulham's uneven start. The former Tottenham man, who came back to his former side last year after five challenging years in north London, is now a regular starter, operating on the left side with the sidelined Antonee Robinson. The issue? With two goals, he's also their joint-top scorer in the Premier League together with Harry Wilson. Raúl Jiménez, their primary attacker last season, has bagged one goal whereas Rodrigo Muniz is injured for an extended period owing to a surgical procedure. Sessegnon is also being required to contribute in a creative role in place of Robinson, who registered ten setups last time round. Fulham's next four fixtures feature three of the best five and Crystal Palace, who have conceded just nine strikes in the Premier League so far. Trouble awaits for a team that have built a name for consistency in the middle. Fulham vs Sunderland, Saturday 3pm The moment for Isak to deliver for the Reds The controversy about Virgil van Dijk's disallowed goal against Manchester City could not hide Liverpool's deficiencies on the day as they succumbed to loss number seven in 10 games. Arne Slot's team need a prolonged upturn to enter the title race from this position, along with a dramatic boost in performance, and opportunity emerges as seven of their upcoming ten Premier League matches facing clubs currently in the lower half in the league. The threat is clear posed by Nottingham Forest, the single club to deliver a home league defeat on the champions the previous campaign, however it's not just Liverpool's showing when facing aerial passes and quick transitions that is under the spotlight. Now is the occasion for Alexander Isak to show up in a Liverpool shirt. The expensive signing has not played at club level over four weeks after picking up a groin injury while his second start in four days in continental competition win abroad. He reappeared as a substitute in Sweden's loss by Switzerland but sat out the midweek dead rubber versus Slovenia to guarantee his fitness for next year's World Cup knockout rounds. A booking in that match would have suspended him. The striker could be short of|lacking|deficient
