The story so far
We countdown to the latest round of Premier League matches with the top and bottom halves of the table gradually shaping up. This weekend, Manchester United will be eager to bounce back from the 5-0 humiliation they suffered against Liverpool when they travel to a struggling Tottenham Hotspur side that beat Burnley 1-0 in their last outing. Relatively, Arsenal will be poised to keep their six-game unbeaten run in the league going when they come up against Leicester City at the King Power Stadium.
League-leaders Chelsea will travel to Newcastle as they try extend their winning run to four in four outings while Manchester City also look to extend their unbeaten streak to nine against Crystal Palace. Jurgen Klopp and his Liverpool brigade will take on Brighton & Hove Albion at home in a bid to keep their unbeaten run in the league going.

Leicester vs Arsenal: Things are looking up for both Leicester City and Arsenal, who prepare for battle in Saturday's early Premier League kickoff at the King Power Stadium. The Foxes overcame a resilient Brentford 2-1 in their last top-flight encounter, while Mikel Arteta's side brushed aside Aston Villa by three goals to one. Both clubs are currently on respective unbeaten runs, with the host having managed a four-game winning streak while the North Londors are yet to pick up a defeat in six outings.
Liverpool vs Brighton: Following their historic thrashing of Manchester United at Old Trafford, Liverpool return to Premier League action against Brighton & Hove Albion on Saturday. While Jurgen Klopp's team was scoring for joy at the Theatre of Dreams, the Seagulls were suffering a 4-1 thumping at the hands of the other Manchester club. Needless to say, the upcoming encounter presents a great opportunity for Jurgen Klopp's men to finally avenge the shock 1-0 defeat they suffered against the visitors when the pair met at Anfield last season.
Tottenham Hotspur vs Manchester United: Manchester United will look to rebound from their embarrassing home defeat to Liverpool when they head to North London to face Tottenham Hotspur in Saturday's late kickoff. Last Sunday, the Red Devils were trounced 5-0 at home by their bitter Premier League rivals, while Spurs were also defeated on the same afternoon, losing 1-0 at the home of West Ham United.
