West Ham United v Manchester City. 7.30pm: City will be reeling more from their abject performance against Liverpool last weekend perhaps more than they will the result, a 3-1 defeat. With Raheem Sterling, Fernandinho and Oleksandr Zinchenko gone, it will be interesting to see how City look to supply their superstar signing Erling Haaland. Prediction: West Ham 1, City 2.

FRIDAY: Crystal Palace v Arsenal, 11pm: Arsenal have signaled their intent to challenge for a top-four berth this season with some signature signings, not least Brazil striker Gabriel Jesus and Portugal midfielder Fabio Vieira. Selhurst Park is never an easy place to visit and the Gunners will have to show plenty of grit to come away with a positive result. Prediction: Palace 1, Arsenal 1. Getty Images
SATURDAY: Fulham v Liverpool, 3.30pm. Darwin Nunez has already endeared himself to Liverpool fans with a fine cameo off the bench in the 3-1 Community Shield victory over Manchester City. The Uruguayan will be hoping for a starting role against Fulham, who have traditionally found the going tough against the Premier League's biggest guns. Prediction: Fulham 0, Liverpool 4. AP Photo
Bournemouth v Aston Villa, 6pm: Bournemouth bounced straight back after their relegation from the Premier League in 2021. Scott Parker has added no new signings to his squad that finished runners-up in last season's Championship while Aston Villa counterpart Steven Gerrard can count on the services of Brazilian pair Diego Carlos and Philippe Coutinho. Prediction: Bournemouth 1, Villa 1. Getty Images
Leeds United v Wolves, 6pm: Leeds stayed up by the skin of their teeth on the final day of last season, but with star forward Raphinha having departed for Barcelona, it remains to be seen how Jesse Marsch compensates for the brilliant Brazilian. Wolves' form tailed off towards the back end of 2021/22 as they failed to win any of their final five games to finish 10th. Prediction: Leeds 0, Wolves 2. PA
Newcastle United v Nottingham Forest, 6pm: Two clubs who have been plenty busy in the transfer market over the summer. Dutch defender Sven Botman will form part of a defence that on paper looks as good as many in the top tier. Nottingham Forest stormed to promotion via the play-offs after being rooted to the foot of the table when manager Steve Cooper was appointed in September 2021. Prediction: Newcastle 2, Forest 0. Getty Images
Tottenham Hotspur v Southampton, 6pm: Tottenham look best placed to challenge Manchester City and Liverpool at the top of the table, especially with Richarlison added to a star-studded front line already boasting Harry Kane and Son Heung-min. Ralph Hasenhuttl has been four years at the Southampton helm but there has been little sign of progress. Could this be the year the Saints step up? Prediction: Tottenham 3, Southampton 0. Getty Images
Everton v Chelsea, 8.30pm: After a period of uncertainty following a protracted takeover, Chelsea moved fast to replace the departing Antonio Rudiger and Andreas Christensen with Kalidou Koulibaly while four-time Premier League winner Raheem Sterling should provide the goals Romelu Lukaku couldn't. Everton can not endure another season like last where they only ensured survival with a game to spare. Everton 0, Chelsea 2. AP Photo
SUNDAY: Leicester City v Brentford, 5pm: Brentford showed they were more than a match for most teams in the league in an excellent debut campaign while Leicester's largely fizzled out before it even ignited. With Newcastle testing Leicester's resolve to keep James Maddison, the Foxes could be in for another season of struggle. Leicester 1, Brentford 1. Getty Images
Manchester United v Brighton, 5pm: Fitting that Cristiano Ronaldo - who reportedly has told Manchester United he wants to quit the club - should mark his return to action against the team he last faced in the Premier League in May. That day was one to forget for all concerned at the club as Brighton ran out 4-0 winners. But United have a new man in charge in Erik ten Hag. Fans will hope for a rapid uptick in form and performances under the Dutchman. Prediction: United 2, Brighton 2. AFP
