We got the fourth games coming up this weekend. Before that, we move some big names around in the latest power rankings.
Last Results: L 1-3 at. Arsenal – W 3-1 at. AFC Wimbledon
Next Week: SAT vs. Wolverhampton Wanderers
It’s tough to not be last when you are the only team without any points. The Hammers have struggled in the Premier League but will finally play some clubs they can get points against. With losses to Liverpool, Bournemouth, and Arsenal, West Ham haven’t had a chance to play an opponent playing around their level. It’s a good thing they beat Wimbledon on Tuesday.

Last Results: D 0-0 vs. Cardiff City – L 0-2 at. Stoke City
Next Week: SAT at. Everton
The Terriers got their first point last weekend. That’s something at least. They still are struggling to score goals and seem destined for relegation. To add to that, they are out of the Carabao Cup after losing to Stoke. Berahino broke his goal drought and Bacuna launched one of the worst own goals you will see.

“We have to be honest. Our attitude and effort is there, but we’ve lacked quality in the final third. The Stoke goalkeeper only had to use his hands once.

Last Results: L 2-4 at. Fulham – D 1-1 vs. Olympiacos
Next Week: SUN vs. Manchester United
After not conceding for three matches straight, Burnley has let in 11 goals in the last four matches. Joe Hart’s Birmingham form has given way to his West Ham form. They also are out of the Europa League with a 4-2 loss on aggregate to Olympiacos. This ends the European dream but might be essential to better league results for the Clarets.

Last Result: D 0-0 at. Huddersfield Town – L 1-3 vs. Norwich City
Next Week: SUN vs. Arsenal
Another clean sheet for Neil Etheridge and another scoreless draw for Cardiff, but they still have yet to score a goal in the Premier League. The Bluebirds will have their first match against a top-six side when they host Arsenal on Sunday. If Etheridge can keep it up, he might be on pace to be one of the best keepers in the league.
A good point away from home, on another day I think we take all 3. Nice to keep another clean sheet. We move onto next weekend! Great to see and catch up with an old friend @schwarzer_mark ⚽️Thank you to all the travelling supporters. 🔵⚪️ #cardiffcityfc #bluebirds #football pic.twitter.com/odgWoVYueq

Last Result: L 0-3 vs. Tottenham Hotspur
Next Week: SUN at. Burnley
It’s code red for the Red Devils. Two straight losses with six goals conceded and a lot of stress around the club. Jose Mourinho stormed out of his press conference on Monday after the disastrous 3-0 loss to Tottenham. The squad needs a win badly to save chances of finishing in the top six and from having one of the worst starts in EPL history for Manchester United.
