The Premier League resumes after the international break with several decisive fixtures across the league, all matches will be live on SuperSport Premier League (DStv Ch. 203, GOtv Ch. 65).

Today’s action begins at 1:30 p.m. with Burnley against Chelsea. The Blues will view this as a crucial opportunity to close the gap on Man City and Arsenal.

At 4:00 p.m., Liverpool host Nottingham Forest. Liverpool enter the fixture under pressure following a 3-0 defeat to Man City, part of a difficult run that has seen them lose five of their last six league matches. Nottingham Forest, meanwhile, earned their first win in ten games with a 3-1 victory over Leeds and will hope to capitalise on Liverpool’s dip in form.

The day concludes with Newcastle against Manchester City at 6:30 p.m. Manchester City, sitting second, come into the weekend buoyed by their convincing win over Liverpool and will aim to maintain pressure on Arsenal. Newcastle, who have suffered consecutive defeats, including a 3-1 loss to Brentford, will need a significant improvement.

Sunday opens with Leeds hosting Aston Villa at 3:00 p.m.

The weekend’s headline fixture sees Arsenal host Tottenham at 5:30 p.m. Arsenal’s long winning and clean-sheet streak came to an end in a 2-2 draw at Sunderland, but they remain top of the table and will look to reassert control in the title race. Tottenham, under Thomas Frank, have struggled for consistency in recent weeks, taking only two wins from their last five matches.

Spurs will need a disciplined performance to halt Arsenal’s momentum in a contest that carries major implications for both clubs. All matches across the weekend will be live on SuperSport Premier League on DStv and GOtv.
