Premier League Fixtures For Week 8 (7th-8th Oct 2023)

The Premier League fixtures race into ‘week 8’ this weekend with 10 matches spread over Saturday and Sunday.

We get going with the popular Saturday lunchtime 12:20pm match that sees Premier League new boys Luton Town hosting Tottenham – it will be the first time they’ve played since 1992.

Then, there are four 3pm Saturday games that include Chelsea on the road to Burnley and struggling Manchester United hosting Brentford – you feel if the Red Devils lose a third game in-a-row in front of their home fans then the pressure on boss Erik Ten Hag will intensify.

This week’s Saturday 5:30pm Premier League offering is between Crystal Palace and Nottm Forest at Selhurst Park – with 3 of the last 4 head-to-heads ending all-square, is the draw the way to play this one?

Onto Sunday and four more games that include three 2pm fixtures.

Brighton and Liverpool both suffered defeats last weekend and meet at the American Express Stadium, while Wolves, who grabbed a shock win over Man City last weekend, will be hoping to carry that form into their home Midlands Derby with Aston Villa.

However, the big Premier League ‘week 8’ highlight has been saved for last as the champions Man City head to North London to face Arsenal in the Sunday 4:30pm match.

The Gunners have several injury worries, including Bukayo Saka, while the Blue Moon fans will know that they’ve won their last 12 league clashes against Arsenal and will be hoping for more of the same. It’s a huge game that will have a big bearing on the title race – so, where is your money going?

Let’s take a look at some key stats for each of ‘week 8’ Premier League games.
