Liverpool and Manchester City are among the 10 Premier League teams in action at the traditional Saturday afternoon kick-off time.

Both are on home soil, with the Reds taking on Bournemouth and City entertaining Crystal Palace.

Brentford v Everton, Brighton & Hove Albion v Leeds United and Chelsea v Leicester City are the other matches getting underway at 3pm BST.

Injuries and suspensions have reduced the number of options available to Jurgen Klopp and Pep Guardiola but both have made minor alterations to their sides.

Fabinho comes in for James Milner in Klopp’s one change, while the injured Nathan Ake and the benched Ilkay Gundogan make way for Ruben Dias and Riyad Mahrez in Guardiola’s two tweaks.

Bournemouth make three changes for their trip to Anfield as Ryan Christie, Lewis Cook and Jaidon Anthony replace Lloyd Kelly, Ben Pearson and Philip Billing. Kelly isn’t in the squad at all, while Dominic Solanke is only a substitute.

Media reports ruling Wilfried Zaha out of the match at the Etihad were accurate, with the Ivory Coast international’s place in Patrick Vieira’s side taken by Nathaniel Clyne. That will presumably see the Eagles move to a five-at-the-back set-up.

Chelsea boss Thomas Tuchel recalls Trevoh Chalobah rather than Ben Chilwell in place of the suspended Kalidou Koulibaly in his one and only line-up change.

Wilfred Ndidi, Ayoze Perez and the injured James Maddison are replaced by Youri Tielemans, Dennis Praet and Boubakary Soumare in Leicester manager Brendan Rodgers’ three alterations.

Graham Potter makes his first starting XI change of the season as defender Pervis Estupinan replaces the absent Adam Lallana for Brighton, which may mean that Leandro Trossard is pushed further forward after his recent stint at wing-back.

Jesse Marsch predictably sticks with the same Leeds team that defeated Chelsea last weekend.

Thomas Frank’s one change from Brentford’s defeat at Fulham is enforced as Mathias ‘Zanka’ Jorgensen comes in for Pontus Jansson, who does not make the squad.

Tom Davies and Dwight McNeil replace Amadou Onana and Salomon Rondon for Everton, who can’t yet call upon new signing Neal Maupay after his move from Brighton.

  4. Sun Jihai
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years

    Ward penalty save would be epic!

    1. Mr. O'Connell
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      Sterling was stepping up to take it. There was an actual chance of Ward points.

      1. Sun Jihai
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        3 years, 8 months ago

        😀

  9. TomSaints

    Such a shame as ward would have saved that

    1. Sun Jihai
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      Would have needed to sub Iversen after his midweek heroics!

      1. TomSaints
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 8 months ago

        I’ve started Iverson

  10. FOO FIGHTER
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 8 months ago

    Haaland is going to be a flop because he wants a big and heavy striker to play like Aguero.

    What a comical error.

    1. chocolove
      • 15 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      Okay, einstein

    2. Zimo
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      Seriously u should start a patreon

    3. Bartowski
      • 15 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      He's deceptively fast.

      1. AC/DC AFC
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        3 years, 8 months ago

        he can play into the box and in the box.

        generally whatever FF says the opposite is the case.

      2. FOO FIGHTER
        • 6 Years
        3 years, 8 months ago

        All of you commenting, Haaland is a World class striker and should be used as one.

    4. 15men1cup
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      🙂 nice try

  11. Rainer
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 8 months ago

    Ward starters denied a pen save.

    1. chocolove
      • 15 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      Shame

    2. Scapegoat Salah
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      Cleanie at this rate will do!

  12. DandyDon
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 8 months ago

    man thought commentator was going to say Jorginho has passed the ball to Havertz. Damn the fraud Sterling stepping up. Ah no pen anyway...

  13. Bartowski
    • 15 Years
    3 years, 8 months ago

    Arsenal are going to win the league because of the players City sold them aren't they.

    1. DRIZ ✅
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      Schedule will hit Arsenal youngsters

        • 15 Years

    5. AC/DC AFC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 8 months ago

      Manchester City fairly weak on the bench too.

      1. Bartowski
        • 15 Years
        3 years, 8 months ago

        Owners ran out of things around the ground they could sponsor for 50 million I guess.

  14. Scapegoat Salah
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 8 months ago

    This could get ugly fast

  15. AC/DC AFC
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 8 months ago

    it's no pen and no goal at Chelsea...

  16. Casualspotted
    • 3 Years
