Chelsea v. West Ham

Chelsea will be looking to bounce back from last weekend’s loss at Manchester City when they return home to face West Ham, who haven’t won since September. Of note, Chelsea are unbeaten in their last 13 Premier League home meetings with West Ham, last losing to their London rivals at Stamford Bridge in September 2002.

Southampton v. Watford

St. Mary’s Stadium hosts a relegation 6-pointer, as 19th-place Southampton take on 20th-place Watford. Quite incredibly, Southampton haven’t won a home game since April. Will that continue on Saturday against the Premier League’s last-place team?

Norwich City v. Arsenal

The pressure continues to mount on Unai Emery and Arsenal. The Gunners are winless in their last 5 Premier League matches and enter the weekend 8 points outside the top-4. Meanwhile, Norwich are coming off a win at Everton, and have already beaten Manchester City at Carrow Road this season. Do they have another surprise in-store on Sunday?

Manchester United v. Aston Villa

Manchester United last weekend yet again dropped points, drawing at Sheffield United. The Red Devils enter the weekend closer to the bottom-3 than they are to the top-4. They’ll look to finally kick-start their campaign against an Aston Villa team who are coming off a win over Newcastle.

Leicester City v. Everton

What a season it’s been for Leicester City. Brendan Rodgers’ men enter the weekend in 2nd, are off to their best-ever top-flight start and have won 5 straight Premier League games. Meanwhile, it’s been a completely different story for Everton, who sit just 4 points above the relegation zone. Marco Silva seems to be clinging on to his job – can he ease some of the pressure off his shoulders with a win at the K.P.?
