🔗 Share this article Premier division: ten highlights to watch for this matchday Walker faces Garnacho poised for a fresh battle A Manchester reunion could be in store as the Clarets' Kyle Walker confronts Chelsea's Alejandro Garnacho on Burnley's turf. The winger has started to settle at Stamford Bridge after his summer move from Old Trafford and displayed his talents in the Wolves match before the fixture pause. His key pass for Pedro Neto combined rapid acceleration and a perfect grounded ball. His build-up for Malo Gusto required moving onto his right before lofting a ball toward the far post. His goal reaction with Neto, echoing his prior celebration with Kobbie Mainoo and Rasmus Højlund, served as a testament of the speed at which things transform. The previous occasion Garnacho encountered Walker? When the former netted for United in their FA Cup final victory against Manchester City. Burnley vs Chelsea, Saturday half past twelve (start times GMT) 2. Semenyo key to halting Cherries' slide Antoine Semenyo is receiving the complete gossip column treatment due to a reported £65m escape clause for a possible winter exit, the tabloids preparing him for graduation out of the Premier League's mid-table ranks. This is understandable from a wide player with six finishes and three assists and remains joyous to watch. Still, his team occupy an tricky position, having undergone a form flip: it is the struggling side West Ham who come in on consecutive triumphs, while Bournemouth have been beaten seven-one on aggregate in their past two fixtures following an strong start to the season. Semenyo saw his attempt stopped on the penalty by Emi Martínez in their four-nil loss by Aston Villa but facing a defensive unit without a shutout in the league since the start of the season could be the best remedy. Bournemouth vs West Ham, Saturday afternoon 3:00 PM Danny Welbeck a surprise option for England It proved interesting to listen to Thomas Tuchel mention Danny Welbeck on more than one occasion throughout the international break even though the Brighton forward celebrates 35 soon. “Without even being familiar with him, I am aware what he can give me,” stated the England boss. “He could serve as a back-up for Harry [Kane] in a very conventional No 9 role.” Gaining the most recent of his 42 international appearances several years ago, it's quite plausible that Welbeck could be on the plane for the World Cup assuming he is able to continue his goal-getting exploits. The ex- Manchester United and Arsenal attacker can claim additional strikes than any other English performer in England's top division this term having six and will be keen to boost that total when Brighton entertain Brentford this weekend. Brighton against Brentford, Saturday 3pm 4. Sessegnon required as assist provider and finisher The narrative around Ryan Sessegnon has provided a measure of comfort to Fulham's inconsistent start. The left-sided player, who rejoined his former side recently following five difficult years in north London, is now a consistent pick, operating on the left flank in the absence of the injured Antonee Robinson. The concern? Having scored twice, he is their top goalscorer this season together with Harry Wilson. Raúl Jiménez, their top scorer last season, has bagged once whereas Rodrigo Muniz is unavailable until 2026 owing to hamstring surgery. Sessegnon must also having to step up as a creator in place of Robinson, who registered ten helpers last time round. The Cottagers' following four games feature three of the leading five as well as Crystal Palace, who have allowed merely nine scores this season this season. Trouble awaits for the club that have earned a name for solidity in the central positions. Fulham vs Sunderland, Saturday afternoon three o'clock The moment for Alexander Isak to perform for Liverpool The controversy regarding Virgil van Dijk's disallowed goal against Manchester City failed to mask Liverpool's deficiencies on the day as they fell to their seventh loss in 10 games. The coach's team must have a consistent improvement to muscle into the title race from this position, as well as a significant improvement in form, and a chance emerges as seven out of their upcoming ten Premier League matches facing clubs at the moment in the bottom half of the table. The danger is evident posed by Nottingham Forest, the single club to inflict a home league defeat to the title holders in the last term, yet it isn't solely Liverpool's showing versus direct play and quick transitions that remains in focus. It is time for Alexander Isak to perform for Liverpool. The £125m striker has not featured in domestic action over four weeks having sustained a groin injury while his second start in four days in Europe win in Germany. The striker came back from the bench in Sweden's defeat to Switzerland but sat out Tuesday's inconsequential game against Slovenia to secure his readiness for the upcoming World Cup playoffs. A caution during the game could have suspended him. He might be short of|lacking|deficient
