Watch Premier League 2026/27 live streams
It's a huge weekend at both ends of the Premier League, with Arsenal malfunctioning ahead of their trip to Anfield, leaders – for now at least – Man City set to face free-scoring Brighton for the second time in a week, and 19th-placed Coventry up against 20th-placed Sunderland in an early six-pointer.
Not to mention latest instalment of the Man Utd saga, Michael Carrick and Bruna Fernandes having hastily patched things up ahead of their showdown with Chelsea.
There's a fair bit of needle between the Sky Blues and Black Cats, stemming from their reciprocal fortunes in numerous relegation and promotion battles past. As this is also their first top-flight meeting in over 25 years, we're expecting things to get tasty at the CBS Arena.
After Enzo Maresca's men eliminated them from the 2026/27 Carabao Cup on Wednesday, courtesy of a huge deflection and Geronimo Rulli's shootout heroics, the Seagulls might just fancy their chances at the Etihad. Brighton are unbeaten in four against City in the league, and will feel hard-done after losing two straight games against the run of play.
One of those defeats was inflicted by Liverpool, who are just beginning to gather momentum under Andoni Iraola. He had the measure of childhood friend Mikel Arteta when he was in charge of Bournemouth, the Cherries winning three of their last four meetings with the Gunners, who after a positive start have retreated to Arteta's oft-criticised agricultural approach. Their midweek defeat by League Two's Fleetwood Town has gone down as one of the biggest League Cup upsets of all time.

Premier League Preview
Love them or loathe them, Arsenal's first Premier League title in 22 years has electrified the competition by spurring their rivals into drastic action. Liverpool, Man City and Chelsea each installed new managers over the summer, hot on the heels of Man Utd and Tottenham, who surely can't spend a third consecutive campaign battling the drop.
The impact of Mikel Arteta's generational dark arts isn't likely to stop. Arsenal gamed the system so effectively that referees have had to literally rewrite the rulebook in order to clamp down on play-acting and time-wasting at set-pieces, substitutions and other breaks in play. Will the Gunners alter their approach or set their sights on fresh innovations? The signing of Bruno Guimaraes feels a little like Lord Voldemort getting his hands on the Elder Wand.
Newcastle's clash with Liverpool is the standout fixture of the opening weekend, a new chapter in a storied rivalry, which will see Matthias Jaissle and Andoni Iraola take charge of their new sides for the first time in a competitive game. Both teams are coming off a decidedly patchy preseason.
New boys Coventry, Hull and Ipswich, back in the top flight after 25-, nine- and one-year absences respectively, are hoping to emulate Sunderland, who defied the odds under Regis Le Bris to qualify for Europe for the first time since 1974. Hull, incidentally, were odds-on to be relegated to League One a year ago – Sergej Jakirovic won promotion via the playoffs instead.
Up to nine teams will compete in Europe this season, including debutants Bournemouth and clubs that don't have a huge amount of strength in depth, like Crystal Palace, Brighton and the aforementioned Black Cats. That could result in a huge shift in the middle of the pack, with Everton, Brentford and Fulham amongst those that should be looking to capitalise.
