The latest installment of the world-famous Manchester Derby is arguably the highlight of matchday 28, but there are other big fixtures you won't want to miss. One is Liverpool-West Ham, with the Reds hoping to still chase down league leaders Manchester City while the Hammers look to get themselves back in the top four. Another will be Chelsea's match against Burnley.
While the Blues are expected to win that game against the struggling side, it's been a crazy past few days for the London giants, whose owner, Roman Abramovich has now been forced to sell the club due to the ongoing issues between Russia and Ukraine. And finally, Tottenham will hope to turn a corner when they host Everton, with Spurs struggling for consistency this season.
Here's all you need to know ahead of matchday 28.
