Sunday sees three heavyweights in action, with two facing one another. At 2:00 pm, Liverpool face Burnley away from home, looking to build on their narrow but impressive triumph over Arsenal. Arne Slot’s men have begun to show their steel, and another win would consolidate their place among the frontrunners.
The weekend culminates in the Manchester derby at 4:30 pm, as City and United clash at the Etihad. City, champions two seasons ago, are reeling after two league defeats and cannot afford more dropped points. United, by contrast, edged a five-goal thriller against Burnley and will relish the opportunity to deepen the troubles of their noisy neighbours.
