Sky Sports has seven of the ten matchweek 8 games: Ipswich Town v Nottingham Forest on Friday night, Chelsea v Tottenham at 5.30pm on Saturday, and the whole Sunday card (Crystal Palace v Newcastle, Hull City v Brentford, Liverpool v Brighton and Manchester United v Bournemouth at 2pm, then Sunderland v Leeds at 4.30pm). TNT Sports has Aston Villa v Manchester City at 12.30pm on Saturday, also streaming on HBO Max. Arsenal v Everton and Coventry City v Fulham kick off at 3pm on Saturday, so they aren’t live on television in the United Kingdom. Picks checked against the league’s broadcast announcement, Sky Sports and TNT Sports. Coverage outside the United Kingdom may differ.
A London derby where, for once, both sets of fans arrive in a decent mood. Chelsea are fourth on 13 points after back-to-back league wins. Tottenham are 16th on six, but they finally got the monkey off their back with a 3–1 win over Coventry City on Monday, their first league win of the season at the seventh attempt. Kick-off at Stamford Bridge is 5.30pm BST on Saturday 24 October, live on Sky Sports.
Chelsea bounced back from a 3–0 hiding at Brentford by thumping Bournemouth 5–1, then won 2–0 at Everton, ending the Toffees’ unbeaten start. They have scored 17 league goals, the third-most in the division behind Brighton and Manchester City, but they’ve also let in 13, which is more than anyone else in the top eight. At Stamford Bridge it’s been entertaining: two wins and a draw, 11 scored and six conceded.
Spurs have six league goals in seven matches, and three of those came on Monday night. Away from home they’re still waiting for a league win: beaten 3–0 at Brentford, then draws at Nottingham Forest (0–0) and Manchester United (1–1), with just one goal across the three trips.
Tottenham played on Monday night, so they get four full days between games. Chelsea last played on Saturday 17 October and get a full week. Neither club has a European fixture this week. Chelsea’s next game after the derby is a cup round-of-16 trip to Liverpool on Wednesday 28 October, which might cross the manager’s mind when he picks the side, but that’s his call, not ours.
Team news for both sides isn’t confirmed yet. We won’t guess at line-ups, and any prices we quote later will be dated.

Ipswich are tenth on nine points and very much a Jekyll-and-Hyde side: win, lose, win, lose. They gave Manchester City a proper fright in a 3–2 defeat at the Etihad last time, and they’ve won two of their three league games at Portman Road. Forest are 19th on five points, have lost three league games on the spin and have scored only five in seven. Friday night lights: kick-off is 8pm BST on Friday 23 October, live on Sky Sports.
City are top and still perfect, seven from seven, although Ipswich nicked two goals off them at the Etihad and Paris Saint-Germain beat them 4–2 in the Champions League on 14 October. Villa have perked up nicely: they’re unbeaten in three league games after a 1–0 win at Newcastle, and they battered Fenerbahçe 6–0 in Europe. Both clubs have Champions League home games first, City against AEK Athens on Tuesday 20 October and Villa against Viking on Wednesday 21 October. Kick-off is 12.30pm BST on Saturday 24 October, live on TNT Sports.
Arsenal are second, three points behind City, and have won their last two league games, including a 1–0 at Nottingham Forest. They’ve conceded only five in seven, joint-best in the league with Brighton. They do have a trip to Bayern München on Wednesday night first. Everton are eighth on ten points and finally lost a league game, 2–0 at home to Chelsea, but they’ve still conceded only seven. Kick-off at the Emirates is 3pm BST on Saturday 24 October.
A proper six-pointer, if that’s not too dramatic for October. Coventry are 17th on six points after losing 3–1 at Spurs, but their last home game was that 4–1 hammering of Newcastle. Fulham are 18th on five and got their first league win of the season, 1–0 against Hull City, although they’re still looking for a first away win. Kick-off is 3pm BST on Saturday 24 October.
Palace come into this one licking their wounds after a 5–0 battering at Brighton, and they have a Europa League trip to Beşiktaş on Thursday night first. They sit 14th on seven points. Newcastle are 11th on eight, have lost their last two league games and have conceded 14 in seven. Kick-off at Selhurst Park is 2pm GMT on Sunday 25 October, live on Sky Sports.
Hull are ninth on nine points and still unbeaten at home in the league, with a win and two draws. They lost 1–0 at Fulham last time out. Brentford are sixth on ten and took their first league defeat of the season, 2–1 at home to Liverpool, but they’re unbeaten on the road with three draws from three. Kick-off is 2pm GMT on Sunday 25 October, live on Sky Sports.
Here’s a stat to enjoy if you’re not a Liverpool fan: they haven’t won a league game at Anfield yet, with two draws and that 3–0 defeat by Manchester City. On the road they’re flying, winning 2–1 at Brentford and 6–3 at LASK. They host Villarreal in the Champions League on Tuesday. Brighton are third on 16 points, have won four on the bounce and have scored 23 league goals, more than anyone. They play at Jablonec in the Conference League on Thursday first. Kick-off is 2pm GMT on Sunday 25 October, live on Sky Sports.
United are 13th on seven points and have drawn their last three league games, most recently 1–1 at Leeds. They’re at Como in the Champions League on Wednesday. Bournemouth are 15th on six and finally got their first league win, 2–0 against Sunderland, before hosting Milan in the Europa League on Thursday night. Kick-off at Old Trafford is 2pm GMT on Sunday 25 October, live on Sky Sports.
Sunderland are bottom on four points and have lost four league games in a row, the latest 2–0 at Bournemouth. They also have a Europa League trip to Lech Poznań on Thursday. Leeds are seventh on ten points, drew 1–1 with Manchester United and have conceded only six in seven. Kick-off at the Stadium of Light is 4.30pm GMT on Sunday 25 October, live on Sky Sports.
