Matchday 2: 5 top things at stake
Just as matchday one had plenty of interesting pre-match stats and facts, matchday two is no exception. Here are some of those ahead of the upcoming matches:
And here's an interesting bonus fact:
Burnley's blanks against Liverpool
To date, Burnley have never scored a solitary Premier League goal versus the Reds. And to make things worse, the Clarets have lost every single one of their past four meetings. Will that hoodoo end this Saturday?
Matchday 2: Social media buzz
Arguably one main thing that has people buzzing is the possibility of seeing Paul Pogba in action after he missed the first game due to suspension. The French star, who left Manchester United back in 2012 virtually for free, recently returned to Old Trafford after Juventus sold him for an unprecedented €105 million.
