Premier division: 10 things to look out for this matchday


Garnacho versus Walker ready for another encounter

A Mancunian rematch could be in store when Burnley's Kyle Walker faces the Blues' Alejandro Garnacho on Burnley's turf. The winger has started to settle with Chelsea after his close-season transfer from Old Trafford and displayed his talents in the Wolves match before the national team interval. His setup for Pedro Neto combined electric speed with a ideal along-the-deck delivery. His creation for Malo Gusto entailed moving onto his right before dinking a delivery across the goalmouth. His goal reaction with Neto, mirroring his earlier celebration with Kobbie Mainoo and Rasmus Højlund, acted as a indication of the pace with which circumstances change. The previous occasion Garnacho took on Walker? When the former found the net for United during their FA Cup final victory against Manchester City.

Antoine Semenyo vital to stopping Cherries' slide

Antoine Semenyo is getting the complete transfer speculation focus following a claimed £65m release clause for his possible mid-season move, the tabloids setting him up for promotion out of the Premier League's average tier. That is understandable from a attacker who has a half-dozen strikes plus three setups who is pleasurable to watch. Nonetheless, his team find themselves in an difficult spot, experiencing a role reversal: now it's the bottom-half team West Ham who enter with back-to-back victories, while Bournemouth are down seven-one combined over their last two games following an impressive beginning to the campaign. Semenyo saw his attempt stopped on the penalty by Emi Martínez in their heavy loss to Aston Villa but facing a defensive unit that hasn't kept a shutout for months could be the perfect solution.

The striker a left-field shout for England

It proved notable to hear Thomas Tuchel reference Danny Welbeck repeatedly during the international break even though the Brighton attacker celebrates 35 next week. “Despite not knowing him, I understand what he can give me,” commented the England boss. “He can be a reserve for Harry [Kane] in a very conventional No 9 position.” Gaining the final 42 caps several years ago, it's quite plausible that Welbeck may be on the plane to the World Cup assuming he is able to maintain his goalscoring performances. The ex- Manchester United and Arsenal attacker can claim a greater tally over every other English player in the Premier League this season having six and is keen to increase that total as Brighton welcome Brentford in Saturday's match.

4. Sessegnon required as playmaker and scorer

The Ryan Sessegnon tale has provided a measure of positivity to Fulham's bumpy start. The former Tottenham man, who rejoined his youth team recently following five tough years at Tottenham, has become a regular starter, operating on the left due to the injury of the unavailable Antonee Robinson. The concern? Having scored twice, he is their top goalscorer in the Premier League together with Harry Wilson. Raúl Jiménez, their primary attacker last season, has bagged a single goal whereas Rodrigo Muniz is unavailable until 2026 owing to a surgical procedure. Additionally, Sessegnon having to step up in a creative role in place of Robinson, who registered ten setups last season. The Cottagers' next four matches feature three from the top five and Crystal Palace, who have let in merely nine goals in the Premier League this season. Trouble awaits for the club that have built a reputation for solidity in the central positions.

The occasion for Alexander Isak to deliver for the Merseyside club

The dispute about Virgil van Dijk's disallowed goal in the match with Manchester City did not camouflage Liverpool's deficiencies on the day as they lost to loss number seven over ten fixtures. The coach's side must have a sustained recovery to enter the championship chase from here, plus a dramatic improvement in form, and the possibility arises with seven of their upcoming ten league games against clubs at the moment in the bottom ten in the standings. The danger is obvious from Nottingham Forest, the only team to deliver a loss at Anfield on the champions in the last term, but it is not only Liverpool's showing against aerial passes and counterattacks that is in focus. It is time for Alexander Isak to perform in a Liverpool shirt. The big-money forward has not played in domestic action in a month following a groin injury when making his second consecutive start in quick succession in the Champions League triumph in Germany. He reappeared as a substitute in the Swedish defeat by Switzerland but was rested the midweek inconsequential game against Slovenia to ensure his readiness for the World Cup playoffs. A caution during the game could have suspended him. He might be short of|lacking|deficient
