🔗 Share this article Premier division: ten highlights to keep an eye on this round of fixtures Garnacho versus Walker poised for another encounter Another northwest showdown may be in the offing as Burnley's Kyle Walker confronts the Blues' Alejandro Garnacho in Lancashire. The attacker has started to settle with Chelsea after his close-season transfer from the Red Devils and demonstrated his talents against Wolves before the national team interval. His setup for Pedro Neto blended blistering pace and a flawless along-the-deck delivery. His contribution for Malo Gusto involved shifting infield before lofting a ball toward the far post. His celebration with Neto, replicating his prior celebration with Kobbie Mainoo and Rasmus Højlund, was a reminder of the pace with which circumstances change. The most recent instance Garnacho faced Walker? Back when the Argentine scored for United during their FA Cup final victory against Manchester City. Burnley against Chelsea, Saturday 12:30 PM (all times GMT) Antoine Semenyo key to stopping Bournemouth's slump Antoine Semenyo is attracting the full gossip column treatment amid a claimed £65m escape clause for his prospective winter exit, the media preparing him for graduation from the Premier League's middle class. That is predictable for a winger with six goals and three setups who is pleasurable to watch. Nonetheless, his team find themselves in an difficult spot, having undergone a form flip: now it's the struggling side West Ham who come in with consecutive triumphs, while Bournemouth have been beaten seven-one over two games in their past two matches after an promising beginning to the season. Semenyo saw his attempt stopped from the spot by Emi Martínez in the 4-0 defeat to Aston Villa but confronting a backline without a shutout in the league since the start of the season could be the perfect remedy. Bournemouth versus West Ham, Saturday 3:00 PM The striker an outside shout for England It was notable to listen to Thomas Tuchel name-drop Danny Welbeck on more than one occasion throughout the international break even though the Brighton attacker celebrates 35 next week. “Without even having met him, I know what he could provide,” stated the England coach. “He might act as a back-up for Harry [Kane] playing a very orthodox No 9 position.” Earning the last of his 42 international appearances in 2018, it's entirely possible that Welbeck might be on the plane for the World Cup provided he is able to sustain his scoring exploits. The former Manchester United and Arsenal striker can claim additional strikes over every other English footballer in the Premier League this season on six and is anxious to add to that count when Brighton welcome Brentford on Saturday. Brighton vs Brentford, Saturday afternoon 3:00 PM The full-back crucial as playmaker and scorer The narrative around Ryan Sessegnon has brought a measure of comfort to Fulham's uneven beginning. The left-sided player, who returned to his boyhood club last year following five challenging years at Tottenham, has emerged as a first-team fixture, operating on the left with the unavailable Antonee Robinson. The issue? On two goals, he is their leading marksman this season as well as Harry Wilson. Their main striker, their top scorer last season, has scored one goal while Rodrigo Muniz is unavailable for an extended period owing to a hamstring operation. Additionally, Sessegnon needing to deliver as an assist provider instead of Robinson, who supplied ten setups in the previous campaign. Fulham's following four matches take in three of the leading five and Crystal Palace, who have let in merely nine scores in the Premier League this season. Danger looms for a side that have earned a standing for consistency in the middle. Fulham against Sunderland, Saturday afternoon 3pm The occasion for Alexander Isak to perform for the Reds The debate regarding Virgil van Dijk's chalked-off effort versus Manchester City failed to mask Liverpool's inferiority in that game as they lost to a seventh defeat in ten matches. Arne Slot's squad must have a consistent improvement to force their way into the title race from their current spot, as well as a dramatic boost in performance, and a chance emerges as seven from their next 10 league games versus sides currently in the bottom half in the standings. The threat is clear posed by Nottingham Forest, the single club to inflict a home league defeat on the champions the previous campaign, but it is not only Liverpool's showing when facing direct play and quick transitions that is under scrutiny. Now is the occasion for Alexander Isak to perform for Liverpool. The £125m striker has been absent at club level in a month having sustained a muscle issue when making his second start in four days in continental competition triumph at Eintracht Frankfurt. The striker came back off the bench during Sweden's reverse by Switzerland but was rested Tuesday's inconsequential game against Slovenia to secure his fitness for next year's World Cup qualifiers. A yellow card in that match could have made him ineligible. The striker could be short of|lacking|deficient
