The midweek European ties split the weekend programme and ensure that we’re restricted to just a quartet of three o’clock kick-offs.

However, there are plenty of headline Fantasy acts on show.

Not least at the Etihad, where Pep Guardiola’s hugely impressive Manchester City side look to maintain their 100% record against AFC Bournemouth.

The last two encounters between these two teams have ended 9-1 in City’s favour and, off the back of a win at Old Trafford and the midweek thrashing of Borussia Mönchengladbach, we have to imagine that Pep’s men will be confident.

Arsenal’s midweek experience was very different; they were fortunate to escape from their trip to Paris St Germain without defeat. They arrive at the KCOM Stadium to take on Hull City, aware that Mike Phelan’s men kept Manchester United at bay until the death in their last home encounter.

Elsewhere, champions Leicester City host Burnley at the King Power, with Riyad Mahrez and Jamie Vardy seeking to maintain the form shown in their Champions League tie against Club Brugge.

Finally, West Brom host a West Ham side still licking their wounds from a 4-2 reverse at the hands of Watford last time out.
