🔗 Share this article Premier division: ten key points to watch for this matchday Garnacho versus Walker set for a fresh battle A Manchester reunion might be in store as the Clarets' Kyle Walker faces the Blues' Alejandro Garnacho at Turf Moor. The winger is finding his feet at Stamford Bridge following his summer move from the Red Devils and displayed his abilities against Wolves before the fixture pause. His key pass for Pedro Neto blended blistering pace with a perfect low cross. His contribution for Malo Gusto required moving onto his right prior to dinking a delivery toward the far post. His goal reaction with Neto, echoing his previous celebration with Kobbie Mainoo and Rasmus Højlund, was a indication of the speed at which circumstances change. The most recent instance Garnacho encountered Walker? During the Argentine found the net for United in their FA Cup final victory over Manchester City. Burnley against Chelsea, Saturday 12.30pm (kick-offs GMT) Antoine Semenyo vital to ending Bournemouth's decline Antoine Semenyo is attracting the complete gossip column focus following a reported £65m escape clause for a potential winter exit, the media preparing him for graduation from the Premier League's average tier. That is predictable for a attacker who has six finishes plus three setups and remains pleasurable to watch. Still, his team occupy an tricky situation, having undergone a role reversal: it is the bottom-half team West Ham who enter with consecutive triumphs, while Bournemouth have been beaten seven to one combined in their previous two games following an promising start to the campaign. Semenyo saw his attempt stopped on the penalty by Emi Martínez in their four-nil loss to Aston Villa but facing a defence lacking a shutout for months may prove the best tonic. Bournemouth against West Ham, Saturday afternoon 3pm The striker an outside shout for the national team It was notable to listen to Thomas Tuchel mention Danny Welbeck repeatedly during the international break although the Brighton striker reaches 35 next week. “Despite not being familiar with him, I am aware what he could offer me,” said the England coach. “He might act as a back-up for Harry [Kane] as a quite conventional No 9 position.” Having won the final 42 international appearances in 2018, it's entirely possible that Welbeck could be on the plane for the World Cup provided he is able to sustain his goal-getting feats. The former Manchester United and Arsenal attacker boasts additional strikes compared to any English performer in the top flight this season with six and will be keen to boost that total as Brighton entertain Brentford this weekend. Brighton vs Brentford, Saturday afternoon 3pm The full-back required as playmaker and goalscorer Sessegnon's story has offered a measure of comfort to Fulham's bumpy start. The former Tottenham man, who came back to his youth team last year after five challenging years at Tottenham, has emerged as a first-team fixture, driving down the left side due to the injury of the unavailable Antonee Robinson. The worry? Having scored twice, he remains their leading marksman in the Premier League as well as Harry Wilson. Raúl Jiménez, their top scorer in the last term, has scored one goal whereas Rodrigo Muniz is out until 2026 due to hamstring surgery. Sessegnon is also being required to contribute as an assist provider instead of Robinson, who registered ten setups in the previous campaign. The Cottagers' upcoming four games feature three among the leading five plus Crystal Palace, who have allowed just nine strikes in the league this season. Trouble awaits for the club that have developed a name for solidity in the central positions. Fulham against Sunderland, Saturday afternoon 3pm The occasion for Alexander Isak to perform for Liverpool The dispute regarding Virgil van Dijk's chalked-off effort versus Manchester City did not camouflage Liverpool's inferiority in that game as they lost to a seventh defeat over ten fixtures. The manager's team need a sustained recovery to muscle into the league contest from here, along with a significant improvement in form, and the possibility presents itself with seven out of their upcoming ten league games against sides currently in the bottom ten in the standings. The danger is obvious posed by Nottingham Forest, the single club to deliver a loss at Anfield to Liverpool the previous campaign, but it is not only Liverpool's showing when facing aerial passes and fast breaks that is under scrutiny. The moment has come for Alexander Isak to show up in a Liverpool shirt. The £125m striker has not played at club level in a month after picking up a groin problem when making his second consecutive start over a short period in the Champions League victory in Germany. Isak returned as a substitute in Sweden's loss by Switzerland but was rested Tuesday's dead rubber versus Slovenia to ensure his readiness for next year's World Cup knockout rounds. A yellow card during the game would have ruled him out. He might be short of|lacking|deficient
