Premier League Weekend - Early Tests For Top London Club

Looking Into The Premier League Matchday 2 Top Fixtures.

It’s week two of the Premier League season already. Did the past 6 days seem longer than the off season to you? you’re not alone. Anyways, the season still feels new, but the calculative business has already started for teams hoping to do better than what they achieved last year. Week two fixtures look exciting and we cannot wait to dive into the action once again.

Week two kicks off at Villa park for a meaty tie between Frank Lampard’s Everton and Steven Gerrard’s Aston Villa. Following last week‘s results, this match up is the perfect way to start the weekend. Villa and Everton both lost their first game of the season. However, Gerrard’s men were more disappointing, as they lost to newly promoted Bournemouth.

Everton gave a good account of themselves against Chelsea, even after suffering set-backs, before and during the game. This match will open a weekend that could see some London clubs make early statements in the league.

First up is Arsenal. The Gunners earned an impressive win against Crystal Palace on the opening day of the season, but the face a foxier opponent this week in Leicester City. It is an opportunity for Arsenal to make a statement especially in front of their fans at the Emirates Stadium.

Manchester United will face Brentford later on Saturday, as they hope to get their first points of the season.

After losing 2-1 against Brighton, Manchester United will need to be at their best to overpower Brentford away from home.

Then, the big one on Sunday. Chelsea and Tottenham will vie to lay down markers early on in the new season.

Spurs already impressed last week with a convincing 4-1 win over Southampton at home, but they face a different beast in Chelsea. Since 2018, Spurs have only scored one goal against Chelsea in the Premier League.

Manchester City and Erling Haaland face Bournemouth at the Etihad, while Liverpool will wait till Monday evening before their first home game of the season against Crystal Palace.
