THREE derbies & HISTORIC rivals meet 😈👀

Your preview to this weekend’s PL fixtures Everton v Liverpool Saturday 3 September, 07:30 EST If Everton are to claim their first victory of the season in Saturday’s Merseyside derby, they will need a stellar performance from their man in form, Alex Iwobi. It has been a challenging start to the new campaign for Frank Lampard’s side, who remain winless, but the 26-year-old has excelled in a new central-midfield berth. Facing a Liverpool midfield weakened by injuries, the industrious and creative Nigerian has a pivotal role to play at Goodison Park. Did you know? Everton have drawn their last three Premier League fixtures, last drawing four in a row in October/November 2012 which included a 2-2 home draw with Liverpool. Aston Villa v Man City Saturday 3 September, 12:30 EST Aston Villa have issues to solve at both ends of the pitch as they prepare to host Manchester City at Villa Park this weekend. Steven Gerrard's side are struggling to create quality chances, while in defence a lack of stability is hindering their ability to keep clean sheets. A significantly improved display will be required to ensure they are competitive against the defending Premier League champions. Did you know? Aston Villa have never lost five of their opening six matches in a Premier League season, and have only recorded such a run twice in their entire top-flight history. Man Utd v Arsenal Sunday 4 September, 11:30 EST Manchester United’s new signing Antony is a mercurial left-footed wide man that will improve Erik ten Hag’s attacking firepower. The fleet-footed 22-year-old averaged a goal once every 206 minutes for Ajax across the last two campaigns in the Eredivisie, while also producing a total of 12 assists. His stock rose dramatically during last season’s UEFA Champions League. Did you know? Man Utd have won only one of their last eight Premier League encounters with Arsenal (D3 L4), though it was in this exact fixture last season (3-2). The transfer window closed yesterday, but how much can you remember about this summer’s signings? We’ve got 10 questions to test you out, starting with the first one below.
