Burnley and Norwich are propping up the Premier League table and still searching for a first win of the campaign ahead of this basement clash. The Clarets have only collected two points and visitors City are rooted to bottom spot following six straight losses.
Leeds are one of five teams still waiting for a first Premier League win and are under pressure to get up and running when they host Watford. The Whites have only managed three draws and three defeats from their opening six games and start in the relegation zone.
Even at this early stage of the season, Watford’s clash with Newcastle has the makings of a relegation ‘six-pointer’. With both of these sides earmarked as candidates for the drop, Steve Bruce may struggle to keep quiet the murmurs of discontent in the north east.
We were right to oppose Leicester last weekend but we’re much more hopeful for them when they host Burnley on Saturday. The Foxes slipped to a 2-1 defeat at Brighton to give us three winning predictions at odds of 7/4, 5/1 and 19/2!
Everton’s impressive start under Rafael Benitez came to an abrupt halt last weekend but they can get back on track straight away at the expense of bottom side Norwich. The Canaries are again struggling to make the step up to the Premier League.
Arsenal last tasted success at Turf Moor in May 2019 and are also without a win in three against Sean Dyche’s Burnley. However, the Gunners released some of the pressure on gaffer Mikel Arteta when securing their first points of the season last week and will fancy their chances of doubling their tally against their fellow strugglers.
Vital Premier League points are on the line in the first top-flight clash between these two sides. Wolves are chalked up as favourites following their first win of the season last weekend and they will be hoping to double their points tally at Molineux.
History is not on Norwich’s side as they attempt to claim their first Premier League victory of the season when Watford visit Carrow Road. The Canaries have won just one of their previous six meetings with the Hornets – their 4-2 home success in 2016 ultimately proving in vain as they were relegated the same night.
There has been little to shout about for both of these teams this season, with Watford’s win over Aston Villa now looking a long time ago. Wolves’ first campaign without Nuno Espirito Santo in the dugout has got off to the worst possible start, losing all three games.
No manager was under more scrutiny during the international break than Mikel Arteta and Arsenal must beat Norwich to help silence his critics. Both of these teams have yet to pick up a Premier League point this season but all the pressure is on the Gunners.
Everton have quietly made a fine start to the new Premier League season and will be confident of seeing off Burnley at Goodison Park. The Clarets took four points off the Toffees last term but have been slower to find top gear after another summer of transfer inactivity.
With deadline day fast approaching, we’re tracking the latest Premier League transfer news to see whether any big late deals will take place. Bwin is offering odds on several players linked with a move this summer finally switching clubs before the window shuts.
Burnley and Leeds both line up at Turf Moor in search of a first Premier League victory following a testing start to the season. United at least have the luxury of a point on the board and Marcelo Bielsa’s side are rated the most likely winners.
Tottenham received a huge boost when Harry Kane revealed he will be staying put and they can celebrate by seeing off Watford. Nuno Espirito Santo has started out with a couple of hard-fought 1-0 Premier League wins but may see this as a chance to open up more.
