The Premier League returns this weekend following a three-week break, with five rounds of fixtures set to take place before the next international break in November.

Liverpool face a crucial few weeks as they prepare to host Manchester City and Arsenal at Anfield. Andoni Iraola’s side remain unbeaten and will be hoping those games can strengthen their title credentials.

Arsenal will look to bounce back from their 3-0 defeat to Brighton, with a run of more favourable fixtures offering Mikel Arteta’s side a chance to get back on track.

Chelsea are also looking to improve after conceding 12 goals in their opening five matches, while Tottenham Hotspur face a challenging run of away fixtures as they look to turn around a difficult start to the season.

At the other end of the table, Fulham have an opportunity to secure their first league win under Alvaro Arbeloa, with their next three matches coming against promoted sides Ipswich Town, Hull City and Coventry City.

The next five rounds could have a major impact on the league table before the November international break.
