🔗 Share this article Premier League: ten key points to keep an eye on this weekend Garnacho versus Walker set for another battle A Manchester reunion may be in the offing when the Clarets' Kyle Walker confronts Chelsea's Alejandro Garnacho at Turf Moor. The attacker is finding his feet at Stamford Bridge following his off-season signing from the Red Devils and displayed his talents in the Wolves match prior to the fixture pause. His key pass for Pedro Neto combined blistering pace and a flawless grounded ball. His creation for Malo Gusto required moving onto his right prior to dinking a ball to the back post. His goal reaction with Neto, echoing his previous embrace with Kobbie Mainoo and Rasmus Højlund, acted as a testament of how quickly circumstances change. The last time Garnacho faced Walker? When the Argentine found the net for United in their Wembley triumph against Manchester City. Burnley vs Chelsea, Saturday afternoon 12:30 PM (all times GMT) Antoine Semenyo key to ending Bournemouth's decline Antoine Semenyo is getting the entire gossip column focus amid a reported £65m release clause for a prospective mid-season move, the media setting him up for graduation out of the Premier League's mid-table ranks. This is understandable from a winger who has a half-dozen strikes and three helpers and is pleasurable to watch. Still, his side find themselves in an tricky position, experiencing a form flip: now it's the struggling side West Ham who arrive with consecutive triumphs, while Bournemouth are down 7-1 on aggregate over their previous two fixtures following an promising opening to the campaign. Semenyo was denied from the penalty spot by Emi Martínez during the heavy loss by Aston Villa yet taking on a defence without a shutout in the league since the start of the season might be the best tonic. Bournemouth vs West Ham, Saturday afternoon 3:00 PM Danny Welbeck a left-field option for the national team It was notable to hear Thomas Tuchel name-drop Danny Welbeck on more than one occasion during the national team window even though the Brighton striker reaches 35 in the coming days. “Without even being familiar with him, I am aware what he can give me,” stated the England manager. “He could serve as a stand-in for Harry [Kane] as a quite orthodox centre-forward position.” Having won the final 42 international appearances in 2018, it's quite plausible that Welbeck might be in the squad to the World Cup if he manages to continue his goalscoring performances. The former Manchester United and Arsenal striker has additional strikes compared to any English footballer in the top flight this season on six and remains eager to increase that tally when Brighton entertain Brentford this weekend. Brighton versus Brentford, Saturday 3:00 PM The full-back needed as creator and goalscorer The narrative around Ryan Sessegnon has provided a degree of warmth to Fulham's inconsistent opening. The 25-year-old, who returned to his youth team last year following five challenging years with Spurs, has emerged as a regular starter, pushing forward on the left flank due to the injury of the sidelined Antonee Robinson. The worry? With two goals, he's also their top goalscorer in the league alongside Harry Wilson. Their main striker, their top scorer in the last term, has netted once while Rodrigo Muniz is out for the long term due to a surgical procedure. Additionally, Sessegnon needing to deliver as a creator instead of Robinson, who registered ten helpers last season. Fulham's upcoming four matches take in three of the top five as well as Crystal Palace, who have allowed just nine goals in the league to date. Danger looms for the club that have earned a reputation for mid-table stability. Fulham against Sunderland, Saturday afternoon 3:00 PM The moment for The striker to deliver for the Merseyside club The debate regarding Virgil van Dijk's ruled-out strike versus Manchester City could not hide Liverpool's deficiencies in that game as they lost to a seventh defeat in ten matches. Arne Slot's team need a consistent improvement to enter the league contest from here, along with a significant boost in performance, and opportunity emerges as seven out of their following ten top-flight fixtures facing clubs presently in the bottom half in the standings. The danger is evident posed by Nottingham Forest, the only team to inflict a loss at Anfield to Liverpool in the last term, but it is not only Liverpool's performance versus direct play and counterattacks that will be under scrutiny. It is time for Alexander Isak to show up for Liverpool. The expensive signing has been absent in domestic action in a month after picking up a muscle issue during his second consecutive start in quick succession in continental competition triumph abroad. The striker came back as a substitute in the Swedish defeat to Switzerland but missed the midweek inconsequential game versus Slovenia to secure his readiness for the World Cup knockout rounds. A caution on Tuesday might have made him ineligible. Isak may be short of|lacking|deficient
