Arsenal v Leeds is on TNT Sports. Sky Sports has Manchester United v Tottenham, all three Sunday matches and Coventry v Newcastle on Monday. The four Saturday 3pm fixtures are not listed for live UK TV in the league's broadcast announcement. These are UK selections; coverage elsewhere may differ.
These early notes use the last league matches before the international break. Form checked on 27 September 2026; match-specific team news will follow nearer kick-off. Liverpool v Manchester City has a fuller preview below.
Arsenal return after their first league defeat of the season, 3–0 at Brighton on 19 September. Leeds offer no obvious soft landing: their goalless draw with Crystal Palace kept them unbeaten through five league games. The interest here is in Arsenal's response to a game in which they struggled to create, against opponents who have made a resilient start.
Both sides won their last league match, but in different ways. Villa beat Tottenham 3–2 after building a three-goal lead and conceding twice late on. Brentford's 3–0 win over Chelsea came through three second-half goals. Villa's ability to see out a lead is worth watching against a side that kept producing chances late in its previous game.
Chelsea conceded all three goals after half-time in their defeat at Brentford. Bournemouth also lost, but their 1–0 reverse against Liverpool was a closer contest, settled by Alexander Isak. For this meeting, a useful distinction is between the score and the performance: Chelsea need a much stronger second half, while Bournemouth need to turn their openings into goals.
Ipswich's 1–0 defeat at Everton was decided by a deflected effort from Thierno Barry. Fulham took a point from their 1–1 draw with Manchester United. Neither result suggests this should be dismissed as a routine win for either side. The early preview will need a fresh assessment of attacking options after the international break, rather than a prediction based on club reputation.
Brian Brobbey scored a hat-trick in Sunderland's 5–3 defeat at Manchester City; the attacking threat was clear, but so was the cost of conceding five. Brighton come from the opposite kind of result, beating Arsenal 3–0. Whether Sunderland can keep that scoring threat while giving away fewer openings is the central question in this match.
United drew 1–1 at Fulham before the break. Tottenham's 3–2 defeat by Villa needs more context than the score alone: Spurs were three down before their two late goals, which were their first league goals of the season. Their ability to turn earlier chances into goals is a more useful starting point than treating that late rally as proof of a recovery.
Palace's 0–0 draw at Leeds followed 11 goals conceded in their first four league matches. Forest, meanwhile, lost 1–0 to Coventry despite creating chances and having a late equaliser disallowed. This pairs a defence that has just steadied itself with an attack that left its last game frustrated; one clean sheet is a starting point for Palace, not proof that their earlier problems have gone.
Hull's unbeaten league start ended in a 2–1 loss at Newcastle, where they conceded twice inside seven minutes before pulling a goal back. Everton remained unbeaten after beating Ipswich 1–0. Hull's opening spell is therefore worth particular attention: their last match left them chasing the game almost immediately, while Everton arrive with a result built on keeping their opponent out.
Coventry earned their first league win of the campaign by beating Forest 1–0, with Jay Dasilva scoring and Bobby Thomas making a crucial clearance off the line. Newcastle's 2–1 win over Hull was built on two early goals. For Coventry, the next test is whether they can reproduce that defensive resistance at home without allowing Newcastle another fast start.
Liverpool face Manchester City at Anfield on Sunday 11 October, kicking off at 4:30pm BST. Liverpool's fixture announcement confirms the match will be shown on Sky Sports in the UK.
Liverpool's latest league win was 1–0 at Bournemouth on 20 September. Isak finished the decisive move after Cody Gakpo's work down the right, but Bournemouth had chances of their own. The clean sheet matters; it should not be mistaken for a match in which Liverpool allowed nothing.
City's 5–3 win over Sunderland made it five league victories from five. Antoine Semenyo scored twice and Erling Haaland was also on target, yet Brian Brobbey's hat-trick showed that City's defence could be reached. Their perfect record and the three goals conceded are both relevant to this preview.
Our early focus is on how Liverpool use the wide areas and how City protect the space behind their midfield. Those are questions raised by the previous games, not a forecast of the same pattern at Anfield. Two results are not enough to justify a confident score prediction, especially before the international players return.
The European schedule also matters. After meeting on Sunday, both clubs play again on Wednesday 14 October: Liverpool travel to LASK, while City host Paris Saint-Germain. Those fixtures appear on the Liverpool and Manchester City club schedules.
That gives each side three calendar days between matches, with an away European trip for Liverpool. It makes player availability and minutes played on international duty relevant to the build-up. It does not, by itself, tell us either manager will rotate or that one side will be tired.
Player availability after international duty is still to be confirmed for this match. We will update this preview as the clubs release team news; predicted line-ups should not be treated as confirmed selections.
