If you thought Saturday was a good day, Sunday promises to be even better!

West Brom, the third and last team playing for a perfect three matches before the break, play a revived Stoke City. Will Jese be the hero again in this one, or will West Brom remain a stubborn side and allow nothing in their net.

Last weekend Spurs swept the ball out their own net twice, when Chelsea beat them at home. Tottenham must make Wembley their HOME and stop teams from relishing the occasion to play there and Burnley is just the side to kick-start against.

Then again, Burnley is not a side here on good looks and hope. They can cause an upset when on the trot. Ask Klopp and Conte, they suffered miserably against the Dyche.

Super Sunday Fixtures:

Sunday 27 Aug

West Brom

Vs

Stoke City Chelsea

Vs

Everton Tottenham

Vs

Burnley Liverpool

Vs

Arsenal

Both Merseyside clubs look to get ahead of each other, with the Reds the leader over the Blues, two games in. The Red of Liverpool takes on the Red of London, Arsenal. Whereas, the Blue of Liverpool takes on the Blue of London, champions Chelsea.

Klopp and Wenger put on a show in their opener last season, a seven-goal thriller to be exact. Much like the Gunner’s opening clash against Leicester City this term. Based purely on defensive shortcomings shown by both teams, I foresee, goals, goals and, more goals to come from this meeting. I’ve literally seen smaller leaks in a dam!

Everton has it tougher than Liverpool playing an away fixture against Chelsea at the Bridge. Koeman almost stole the show when Rooney scored his 200th goal in the Premier League at the Etihad, but then managed not to manage his subs properly.

Champions Chelsea, are far from their best and are still without their star player, Hazard. Chelsea do go in favourites and should be taking all three points after their last away win against Spurs.

God has been good to us with some intense fixtures early in the season. This weekend has the perfect amount of first class clashes to send us off to international play.
