🔗 Share this article Premier division: ten key points to watch for this matchday 1. Garnacho and Walker set for another clash A Manchester reunion may be in the offing when the Clarets' Kyle Walker lines up against Chelsea's Alejandro Garnacho on Burnley's turf. The attacker is adapting well in west London following his close-season transfer from Manchester United and showcased his abilities versus Wolverhampton before the international break. His assist for Pedro Neto mixed blistering pace and a flawless grounded ball. His creation for Malo Gusto involved cutting inside before dinking a delivery across the goalmouth. His celebration with Neto, echoing his prior embrace with Kobbie Mainoo and Rasmus Højlund, acted as a indication of how quickly circumstances change. The previous occasion Garnacho encountered Walker? When the Argentine scored for United in their cup final win over Manchester City. Burnley versus Chelsea, Saturday afternoon half past twelve (start times GMT) Antoine Semenyo key to halting Bournemouth's slump Antoine Semenyo is receiving the entire rumour-mill treatment due to a reported £65m release clause for his potential mid-season move, the tabloids setting him up for advancement from the Premier League's average tier. That is to be expected from a attacker with a half-dozen strikes and three helpers who is joyous to watch. Still, his team find themselves in an difficult position, having engaged in a form flip: now it's the bottom-half team West Ham who enter on consecutive triumphs, whereas Bournemouth have lost seven-one combined in their last two matches after an promising opening to the campaign. Semenyo saw his attempt stopped from the penalty spot by Emi Martínez during the four-nil loss to Aston Villa however taking on a defensive unit that hasn't kept a clean sheet since August may prove the ideal remedy. Bournemouth vs West Ham, Saturday afternoon 3pm Danny Welbeck a surprise shout for the Three Lions It seemed interesting to listen to Thomas Tuchel mention Danny Welbeck repeatedly during the fixture pause despite the fact that the Brighton attacker celebrates 35 next week. “Even without knowing him, I am aware what he can offer me,” commented the England coach. “He can be a reserve for Harry [Kane] in a quite orthodox centre-forward role.” Gaining the most recent of his 42 caps several years ago, it's quite plausible that Welbeck may be on the plane for the World Cup if he can continue his goal-getting feats. The former Manchester United and Arsenal striker has more goals compared to any English player in the Premier League this campaign having six and is keen to boost that tally when Brighton host Brentford on Saturday. Brighton vs Brentford, Saturday afternoon 3pm Ryan Sessegnon crucial as playmaker and goalscorer Sessegnon's story has brought a degree of comfort to Fulham's uneven opening. The 25-year-old, who returned to his former side last year after five difficult years in north London, has emerged as a regular starter, driving down the left side with the injured Antonee Robinson. The issue? With two goals, he is their top goalscorer in the league together with Harry Wilson. The Mexican striker, their top scorer in the last term, has netted a single goal while Rodrigo Muniz is out for an extended period owing to a surgical procedure. Sessegnon is also needing to deliver as a creator replacing Robinson, who provided ten helpers in the previous campaign. Fulham's following four matches feature three among the best five plus Crystal Palace, who have conceded merely nine strikes this season this season. Danger looms for a side that have developed a name for mid-table stability. Fulham vs Sunderland, Saturday 3:00 PM The occasion for The striker to perform for Liverpool The controversy surrounding Virgil van Dijk's chalked-off effort against Manchester City could not hide Liverpool's inferiority in that game as they succumbed to loss number seven in 10 games. The coach's side require a sustained recovery to force their way into the title race from this position, as well as a major improvement in form, and the possibility presents itself as seven of their following ten Premier League matches versus sides presently in the bottom half in the standings. The threat is obvious from Nottingham Forest, the single club to inflict a home league defeat on the champions the previous campaign, however it's not just Liverpool's display against aerial passes and quick transitions that is under scrutiny. Now is the occasion for Alexander Isak to show up for Liverpool. The expensive signing has been absent at club level over four weeks after picking up a groin injury when making his second consecutive start in quick succession in continental competition victory in Germany. The striker came back off the bench in the Swedish loss against Switzerland but was rested the midweek inconsequential game with Slovenia to ensure his availability for next year's World Cup qualifiers. A caution during the game would have ruled him out. Isak may be short of|lacking|deficient
