🔗 Share this article Premier League: ten highlights to keep an eye on this round of fixtures Walker faces Garnacho ready for a fresh clash Another northwest showdown could be in the offing when the Clarets' Kyle Walker confronts the Blues' Alejandro Garnacho in Lancashire. The winger is finding his feet with Chelsea after his off-season signing from the Red Devils and showcased his abilities against Wolves before the national team interval. His key pass for Pedro Neto combined electric speed with a flawless grounded ball. His creation for Malo Gusto entailed shifting infield prior to chipping a cross toward the far post. His celebration with Neto, echoing his prior embrace with Kobbie Mainoo and Rasmus Højlund, was a reminder of the pace with which situations evolve. The previous occasion Garnacho encountered Walker? During the former found the net for United in the cup final win against Manchester City. Burnley versus Chelsea, Saturday half past twelve (start times GMT) Antoine Semenyo vital to halting Cherries' slump Antoine Semenyo is getting the entire transfer speculation focus amid a reported £65m escape clause for his potential mid-season move, the media positioning him for graduation out of the Premier League's average tier. That is to be expected for a attacker who has six finishes and three helpers and remains pleasurable to watch. Still, his team are in an difficult situation, having undergone a form flip: it is the relegation battlers West Ham who come in on back-to-back victories, whereas Bournemouth have lost seven-one over two games in their last two matches after an impressive opening to the season. Semenyo saw his attempt stopped from the penalty spot by Emi Martínez in the heavy loss to Aston Villa but taking on a defence that hasn't kept a clean sheet for months could be the perfect solution. Bournemouth vs West Ham, Saturday three o'clock Danny Welbeck a surprise shout for the national team It proved intriguing to hear Thomas Tuchel mention Danny Welbeck on more than one occasion throughout the international break even though the Brighton striker celebrates 35 soon. “Even without knowing him, I am aware what he is able to provide,” commented the England boss. “He might act as a stand-in for Harry [Kane] playing a quite orthodox No 9 role.” Earning the last of his 42 England games in 2018, it's entirely possible that Welbeck could be on the plane to the World Cup assuming he is able to continue his goal-getting performances. The ex- Manchester United and Arsenal forward boasts additional strikes than any other English performer in the Premier League this campaign on six and remains anxious to increase that total when Brighton entertain Brentford on Saturday. Brighton versus Brentford, Saturday 3pm 4. Sessegnon required as playmaker and goalscorer The Ryan Sessegnon tale has offered a measure of positivity to Fulham's inconsistent opening. The former Tottenham man, who returned to his boyhood club recently after five difficult years in north London, has emerged as a regular starter, pushing forward on the left due to the injury of the sidelined Antonee Robinson. The issue? On two goals, he's also their leading marksman in the Premier League as well as Harry Wilson. Raúl Jiménez, their primary attacker the previous campaign, has scored one goal whereas Rodrigo Muniz is out for an extended period because of hamstring surgery. Sessegnon is also having to step up as an assist provider in place of Robinson, who registered 10 assists last season. Fulham's following four matches feature three among the top five and Crystal Palace, who have allowed just nine strikes in the Premier League to date. A threat emerges for a team that have earned a reputation for mid-table stability. Fulham vs Sunderland, Saturday 3:00 PM The occasion for Alexander Isak to perform for Liverpool The controversy surrounding Virgil van Dijk's disallowed goal against Manchester City could not hide Liverpool's shortcomings in that game as they fell to their seventh loss over ten fixtures. The manager's team must have a consistent improvement to force their way into the championship chase from here, along with a significant upturn in results, and the possibility presents itself with seven from their next 10 Premier League matches against teams presently in the bottom half of the table. The danger is obvious from Nottingham Forest, the sole side to deliver a defeat on their own turf on the champions in the last term, however it's not just Liverpool's showing versus aerial passes and quick transitions that is under the spotlight. Now is the occasion that Alexander Isak to deliver for Liverpool. The expensive signing has not played in domestic action over four weeks having sustained a groin injury when making his second appearance in the lineup over a short period in Europe win at Eintracht Frankfurt. The striker came back from the bench in Sweden's loss by Switzerland but was rested Tuesday's meaningless match against Slovenia to ensure his readiness for the upcoming World Cup playoffs. A booking in that match might have made him ineligible. He might be short of|lacking|deficient
