English Premier League: Power Rankings after matchday four
By Orri Benatar
Last Result: L 1-2 vs. Liverpool
Next Match: SAT at. Bournemouth
Leicester City drops to tenth in the Premier League power rankings after a loss to Liverpool. The Foxes did get the first goal against Liverpool and were close to earning a point two weeks ago. They are still in contention for a top ten finish as the season rolls along. The match at Bournemouth could be a goalfest with Puel’s team having scored in every game this season.

Last Result: L 0-2 at. Chelsea
Next Match: SAT vs. Leicester City
Bournemouth’s loss to Chelsea is the one reason they fell. Eddie Howe faced a better opponent and the Cherries were outmatched at the Bridge. Currently, they are the only team with seven points and are in the mix to be an early top ten finisher. The match against Leicester will be a good indication of how serious this side is.

Last Result: W 1-0 at. West Ham United
Next Match: SUN vs. Burnley
Wolves were minutes away from drawing West Ham in what would have been an acceptable result for the newly promoted side. Instead, Adama Traore scored in the 92nd minute and got Wolves their first Premier League win in six years. Nuno Santo and his squad don’t look phased against the EPL opposition and could contend for a top ten finish.
Last Result: D 1-1 vs. Huddersfield Town
Next Match: SUN vs. West Ham United
The Toffees struggled against Huddersfield and lately have looked a little disconnected. They are still undefeated with three draws in the first four matches. The squad is deep for English competition and ready to go against West Ham on Sunday. Richarlison especially is eager to get back on the pitch for Everton after his debut for Brazil.

Last Result: W 3-2 at. Cardiff City
Next Matches: SAT at. Newcastle United & THU vs. Vorskla
The Gunners did have a scare against Cardiff but they did score three goals and are finding their groove. Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and Alexandre Lacazette both scored in the win and can continue to score bags of goals for Arsenal. The next two matches against Newcastle in the league and Vorskla in the Europa League is a chance for Arsenal’s attack to show how good they can be.
