What will happen in this one though? Cast your vote so we know if you think it’ll be all smiles or disappointment come the full time whistle.

A tough start doesn’t get any easier for Bournemouth as Eddie Howe’s side – yet to collect a point – play host to unbeaten Manchester City in Saturday’s early kick off to get the weekend schedule underway.

Crystal Palace will view the visit of Swansea to Selhurst Park as an opportunity to collect a first Premier League point of the Frank De Boer era. Meanwhile, second place Huddersfield look to make it three from three against Southampton, who are also unbeaten in the league.

The unwanted 100% records both Newcastle and West Ham have will end as at least one of the sides will collect a first point, which will also be the aim of Brighton when they head to Watford.

Manchester United have played two and won two so far, winning each fixture 4-0 – can they do that again in the visit of Leicester on Saturday evening?

Sunday has a quartet of games to round things off, including champions Chelsea hosting Everton and a big game at Anfield when Liverpool and Arsenal go head to head.
