Today’s Premier League Matches, Gameweek 7
High-flying Villa and Everton feature in today’s first two Premier League matches
Aston Villa have had a surprisingly good start to the season, garnering 12 points from 5 games. They will face an unpredictable Southampton at 5:30 PM IST, where a win will see Villa climb to 2nd spot.
Everton, who have had an even better start under new manager Carlo Ancelotti, travel to St. James’ Park to take on Newcastle at 7:30 PM IST. A win today would take Everton to the top of the Premier League table ahead of city rivals Liverpool on goal difference. Richarlison, Digne, Coleman, James Rodriguez will all miss out for Everton.
Manchester United host Arsenal in the ‘main course’ of today’s Premier League matches
Two giants of English football collide once again as Manchester United face Arsenal in a titanic clash. Both teams have faced an uncertain start to the season as they find themselves in the bottom half the table, but a result today for either would act as the perfect boost if they are to fulfill their target of finishing in the top 4 of the table.
Anthony Martial for Manchester United is the only major name missing from today’s selection while Arsenal travel to Old Trafford without Rob Holding and Sokratis. Ole’s Red Devils are on a 4 match winning run, with their 5-0 mid-week victory in the Champions League vs. Leipzig being the latest. Arsenal, on the other hand, have won both their Europa League matches, but have had a highly uncertain start in the League, losing 3 out of their 6 matches already.
