🔗 Share this article Premier League: ten key points to look out for this round of fixtures Garnacho versus Walker poised for a fresh clash A Mancunian rematch could be on the cards as the Clarets' Kyle Walker lines up against the Blues' Alejandro Garnacho in Lancashire. The attacker has started to settle at Stamford Bridge following his summer move from Old Trafford and displayed his talents against Wolves prior to the international break. His assist for Pedro Neto mixed rapid acceleration with a perfect along-the-deck delivery. His build-up for Malo Gusto entailed moving onto his right before lofting a cross across the goalmouth. His goal reaction with Neto, mirroring his earlier embrace with Kobbie Mainoo and Rasmus Højlund, served as a indication of the pace with which circumstances change. The last time Garnacho took on Walker? During the youngster netted for United in their cup final win against Manchester City. Burnley versus Chelsea, Saturday 12.30pm (kick-offs GMT) The winger key to halting Cherries' slide Antoine Semenyo is getting the full transfer speculation attention amid a alleged £65m buyout clause for a prospective mid-season move, the gossip columns preparing him for promotion from the Premier League's average tier. That is predictable from a winger with six goals and three helpers and remains delightful to watch. However, Bournemouth are in an tricky situation, having undergone a form flip: it is the bottom-half team West Ham who arrive with back-to-back victories, whereas Bournemouth are down 7-1 on aggregate over their previous two matches after an strong opening to the campaign. Semenyo saw his attempt stopped from the penalty spot by Emi Martínez in the heavy loss by Aston Villa but confronting a backline lacking a clean sheet since August could be the ideal tonic. Bournemouth against West Ham, Saturday three o'clock 3. Welbeck an outside shout for the Three Lions It was intriguing to listen to Thomas Tuchel reference Danny Welbeck on more than one occasion throughout the fixture pause despite the fact that the Brighton forward reaches 35 next week. “Even without being familiar with him, I know what he can provide,” stated the England manager. “He might act as a stand-in for Harry [Kane] playing a very orthodox No 9 position.” Having won the most recent of his 42 caps back in 2018, it's quite plausible that Welbeck may be on the plane to the World Cup if he manages to continue his goalscoring exploits. The former Manchester United and Arsenal forward has more goals over every other English footballer in the top flight this term on six and will be anxious to increase that tally as Brighton welcome Brentford this weekend. Brighton vs Brentford, Saturday 3:00 PM The full-back crucial as playmaker and scorer Sessegnon's story has brought a degree of warmth to Fulham's inconsistent beginning. The left-sided player, who rejoined his former side recently after five tough years at Tottenham, is now a regular starter, pushing forward on the left side in the absence of the sidelined Antonee Robinson. The issue? On two goals, he remains their top goalscorer in the Premier League together with Harry Wilson. Raúl Jiménez, their top scorer last season, has bagged once while Rodrigo Muniz is injured for the long term due to a surgical procedure. Additionally, Sessegnon having to step up in a creative role in place of Robinson, who supplied 10 assists last season. The Cottagers' next four fixtures take in three among the best five and Crystal Palace, who have conceded merely nine strikes in the Premier League to date. Trouble awaits for a side that have built a reputation for consistency in the middle. Fulham versus Sunderland, Saturday afternoon three o'clock The moment for Isak to produce for the Merseyside club The debate surrounding Virgil van Dijk's ruled-out strike against Manchester City did not camouflage Liverpool's shortcomings on the day as they succumbed to a seventh defeat in ten matches. The manager's side require a prolonged upturn to muscle into the championship chase from this position, along with a significant improvement in form, and the possibility emerges as seven from their next 10 league games facing teams currently in the bottom half in the standings. The risk is clear posed by Nottingham Forest, the only team to hand a defeat on their own turf to the title holders last season, however it's not just Liverpool's showing against long balls and fast breaks that is in focus. The moment has come for Alexander Isak to show up wearing red. The £125m striker has not featured in domestic action over four weeks following a muscle issue during his second appearance in the lineup over a short period in continental competition win in Germany. He reappeared as a substitute in Sweden's reverse by Switzerland but was rested the midweek meaningless match against Slovenia to guarantee his availability for the upcoming World Cup playoffs. A booking on Tuesday could have ruled him out. Isak may be short of|lacking|deficient
