West Ham vs Arsenal

Time: 6:30 PM

A London derby with everything on the line. Arsenal visits the London Stadium in pursuit of maintaining their lead at the top of the table.

Fresh off a commanding 5-1 victory over Sporting CP, the Gunners are riding high, but West Ham, reeling from a narrow loss to Brighton, will aim to bounce back.

Declan Rice, now a Gunner, returns to face his former club, adding emotional depth to the contest. Arsenal’s dominant record against West Ham, 15 wins at the London Stadium, could spell trouble for the Hammers.

Liverpool vs Manchester City

This matchup is a clash of titans that has shaped the Premier League’s modern era. Liverpool, in stellar form, faces Manchester City, whose three-match losing streak puts them in desperate need of points to keep their title defense hopes alive.

Pep Guardiola’s City needs to overcome the daunting Anfield atmosphere to remain in contention for a fifth consecutive title. Meanwhile, Liverpool aims to extend their lead at the top in what promises to be a thrilling encounter.

Liverpool, however, is brimming with confidence. After a resounding 2-0 win against Real Madrid in their last outing, Arne Slot’s men seem unstoppable at home. The match will air by 5:00 pm tomorrow

Manchester City have beaten Liverpool twice across 26 Premier League trips to Anfield.

Chelsea vs Aston Villa

Chelsea’s impressive form under Enzo Maresca faces a tough test as they host Aston Villa.

With Cole Palmer and Nicolas Jackson finding form, the Blues look sharper in attack, but Villa’s defensive duo of Ezri Konsa, who is expected to make a comeback after being out of play due to injury, and Tyrone Mings might prove impenetrable for Chelsea’s attackers.

The match will air by 2:30 pm tomorrow.

Chelsea and Aston Villa have played 60 games since 1995. Among them, Chelsea won 31 games, while Aston Villa won 14 with 15 games ending in a draw.

Crystal Palace v Newcastle Utd

Newcastle, after a 2-0 home game defeat to West Ham United, will take on Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park.

Struggling in the relegation zone with only eight points this season, Oliver Glasner’s men need to turn things around, and a win against Newcastle can help boost the team’s morale.

The match will air by 4:00 PM (WAT).

Palace have lost 3 games at home this season and won only 1.

Tottenham Hotspur vs. Fulham

Spurs, chasing a top-four finish, face a Fulham side looking to shake off inconsistency.

Fresh out of a 4-0 win against title holders, Spurs’ attacking philosophy under Ange Postecoglou continues to excite fans, and tomorrow’s clash with Fulham offers another opportunity for Son Heung-min and James Maddison to shine.

The match will air by 2:30 pm.

Son Heung-Min has scored only 3 goals against Fulham in the Premier League in his career.
