🔗 Share this article Premier League: ten highlights to watch for this weekend Walker faces Garnacho poised for another battle A Mancunian rematch may be in the offing as the Clarets' Kyle Walker confronts Chelsea's Alejandro Garnacho in Lancashire. The wide man is finding his feet with Chelsea following his summer move from Old Trafford and displayed his abilities against Wolves prior to the national team interval. His setup for Pedro Neto combined blistering pace with a ideal along-the-deck delivery. His build-up for Malo Gusto involved cutting inside before dinking a ball toward the far post. His celebration with Neto, mirroring his prior embrace with Kobbie Mainoo and Rasmus Højlund, was a indication of how quickly circumstances change. The previous occasion Garnacho took on Walker? During the former netted for United in the FA Cup final victory against Manchester City. Burnley vs Chelsea, Saturday afternoon half past twelve (all times GMT) 2. Semenyo vital to ending Bournemouth's slide Antoine Semenyo is getting the entire gossip column focus amid a alleged £65m escape clause for a potential mid-season move, the media positioning him for advancement from the Premier League's average tier. This is understandable from a winger who has six goals and three setups and is joyous to watch. Still, Bournemouth occupy an difficult position, experiencing a body swap: now it's the bottom-half team West Ham who arrive on successive wins, while Bournemouth have lost 7-1 over two games in their previous two games following an promising start to the campaign. Semenyo had his effort saved on the penalty by Emi Martínez in the heavy loss to Aston Villa but facing a backline without a clean sheet since August might be the perfect solution. Bournemouth vs West Ham, Saturday 3:00 PM Danny Welbeck a left-field shout for the Three Lions It seemed interesting to hear Thomas Tuchel reference Danny Welbeck repeatedly throughout the international break even though the Brighton forward turns 35 in the coming days. “Even without being familiar with him, I understand what he could offer me,” stated the England coach. “He can be a reserve for Harry [Kane] playing a quite orthodox No 9 position.” Having won the most recent of his 42 international appearances several years ago, it's quite plausible that Welbeck could be selected for the World Cup assuming he manages to continue his goalscoring performances. The ex- Manchester United and Arsenal striker has additional strikes compared to any English footballer in the top flight this season having six and will be anxious to add to that count when Brighton welcome Brentford in Saturday's match. Brighton against Brentford, Saturday afternoon 3pm The full-back needed as assist provider and scorer Sessegnon's story has brought a degree of warmth to Fulham's bumpy start. The left-sided player, who returned to his youth team recently after five difficult years at Tottenham, is now a regular starter, driving down the left side with the unavailable Antonee Robinson. The issue? Having scored twice, he remains their leading marksman in the Premier League as well as Harry Wilson. Raúl Jiménez, their primary attacker the previous campaign, has scored one goal while Rodrigo Muniz is injured until 2026 due to a hamstring operation. Additionally, Sessegnon having to step up in a creative role replacing Robinson, who provided ten helpers last time round. The Cottagers' following four fixtures include three of the leading five and Crystal Palace, who have conceded merely nine strikes in the Premier League so far. Danger looms for a side that have built a standing for solidity in the central positions. Fulham vs Sunderland, Saturday afternoon three o'clock The moment for Isak to perform for the Reds The controversy surrounding Virgil van Dijk's ruled-out strike in the match with Manchester City failed to mask Liverpool's inferiority in that game as they lost to a seventh defeat in ten matches. The coach's team must have a prolonged upturn to force their way into the title race from their current spot, as well as a major upturn in results, and opportunity presents itself as seven of their following ten league games facing sides at the moment in the bottom half in the standings. The risk is obvious from Nottingham Forest, the only team to deliver a defeat on their own turf on the champions the previous campaign, yet it isn't solely Liverpool's display versus long balls and fast breaks that will be under scrutiny. The moment has come that Alexander Isak to perform in a Liverpool shirt. The big-money forward has been absent at club level over four weeks after picking up a groin problem while his second start in quick succession in continental competition triumph at Eintracht Frankfurt. He reappeared as a substitute in Sweden's loss to Switzerland but was rested the subsequent dead rubber with Slovenia to guarantee his fitness for the World Cup knockout rounds. A booking in that match might have suspended him. He might be short of|lacking|deficient
