🔗 Share this article Premier division: 10 things to watch for this round of fixtures Walker faces Garnacho set for a fresh clash A Manchester reunion could be in store when Burnley's Kyle Walker faces Chelsea's Alejandro Garnacho in Lancashire. The wide man is finding his feet with Chelsea after his close-season transfer from Manchester United and showcased his abilities against Wolves prior to the national team interval. His assist for Pedro Neto mixed blistering pace and a perfect grounded ball. His build-up for Malo Gusto involved shifting infield prior to chipping a cross to the back post. His celebration with Neto, mirroring his earlier hug with Kobbie Mainoo and Rasmus Højlund, acted as a testament of the pace with which things transform. The most recent instance Garnacho faced Walker? Back when the former netted for United during their cup final win over Manchester City. Burnley against Chelsea, Saturday afternoon 12:30 PM (all times GMT) The winger key to halting Bournemouth's slide Antoine Semenyo is getting the entire rumour-mill attention amid a reported £65m escape clause for a potential January departure, the media preparing him for graduation from the Premier League's middle class. This is understandable from a attacker with a half-dozen strikes plus three helpers who is delightful to watch. However, his side occupy an difficult position, having undergone a form flip: it is the relegation battlers West Ham who enter on back-to-back victories, while Bournemouth have lost seven to one on aggregate over their previous two matches after an promising start to the campaign. Semenyo saw his attempt stopped from the spot by Emi Martínez in their heavy loss to Aston Villa however confronting a defence that hasn't kept a goalless game in the league since the start of the season might be the ideal tonic. Bournemouth against West Ham, Saturday afternoon 3pm The striker an outside choice for England It proved interesting to hear Thomas Tuchel mention Danny Welbeck repeatedly during the international break although the Brighton attacker turns 35 next week. “Despite not being familiar with him, I am aware what he is able to give me,” stated the England manager. “He could serve as a back-up for Harry [Kane] in a very traditional centre-forward position.” Having won the most recent of his 42 international appearances back in 2018, there is every chance that Welbeck could be selected for the World Cup if he manages to maintain his goalscoring feats. The former Manchester United and Arsenal striker can claim a greater tally over every other English footballer in England's top division this season having six and remains anxious to increase that total as Brighton host Brentford in Saturday's match. Brighton versus Brentford, Saturday 3:00 PM Ryan Sessegnon required as creator and finisher Sessegnon's story has offered a measure of comfort to Fulham's uneven opening. The former Tottenham man, who returned to his boyhood club recently following five tough years in north London, is now a first-team fixture, pushing forward on the left flank in the absence of the injured Antonee Robinson. The concern? Having scored twice, he remains their top goalscorer this season alongside Harry Wilson. Raúl Jiménez, their leading man in the last term, has netted once whereas Rodrigo Muniz is unavailable for an extended period because of a surgical procedure. Additionally, Sessegnon being required to contribute as a creator replacing Robinson, who provided ten setups in the previous campaign. Fulham's next four fixtures take in three of the leading five and Crystal Palace, who have let in only nine scores this season to date. Trouble awaits for a side that have earned a reputation for consistency in the middle. Fulham against Sunderland, Saturday three o'clock 5. Time for Isak to deliver for the Merseyside club The debate regarding Virgil van Dijk's chalked-off effort against Manchester City could not hide Liverpool's inferiority in that game as they fell to their seventh loss over ten fixtures. The manager's squad need a consistent improvement to force their way into the championship chase from this position, plus a dramatic boost in performance, and opportunity arises as seven out of their upcoming ten top-flight fixtures against clubs at the moment in the bottom half in the league. The danger is obvious posed by Nottingham Forest, the sole side to inflict a loss at Anfield on the champions last season, however it's not just Liverpool's performance against direct play and counterattacks that remains in focus. Now is the occasion that Alexander Isak to perform wearing red. The big-money forward has been absent in domestic action for a month having sustained a muscle issue during his second consecutive start over a short period in Europe win in Germany. The striker came back as a substitute in Sweden's defeat against Switzerland but missed the subsequent dead rubber against Slovenia to secure his readiness for next year's World Cup knockout rounds.
