See below one key stat for the Premier League fixtures for week five with all 20 sides back in action after the international break – matches this week will be spread over Saturday, Sunday and Monday.
Premier League Fixtures For Week Five
After the international break the Premier League fixtures return this weekend for the fifth round of matches.
No Friday night game, so the action gets going on Saturday with the popular lunchtime fixture that is between Wolves and Liverpool.
A stack of Saturday 3pm matchups that include Villa hosting Palace – in a clash that’s seen 4 red cards in the last 8 meetings – while Brighton travel up to Manchester United and having taken 6 points off the Red Devils last season, the Seagulls won’t be a pushover.
The Saturday 5:30pm match this week sees Newcastle, who have not had a great start to the season, entertaining Brentford, but with the Magpies having won 7 of their last 8 vs the Bees they will fancy their chances here.
Onto Sunday, and there’s two more Premier League fixtures as Chelsea make the trip south to Bournemouth, plus Everton host Arsenal in the 4:30pm offering – did you the Toffeemen are unbeaten in their last 5 home league games vs the Gunners?
We end on Monday with the final Premier League fixture from week five as Forest welcome Burnley, who are still hunting their first points of the new season – the Clarets are unbeaten in their last 7 vs Forest, so can they get off the mark here?
We give you some key stats to take into each ‘week five’ Premier League match.
