🔗 Share this article English top flight: ten highlights to look out for this weekend Walker faces Garnacho poised for a new clash A Manchester reunion may be on the cards when Burnley's Kyle Walker faces the Blues' Alejandro Garnacho on Burnley's turf. The attacker has started to settle in west London after his summer move from Manchester United and showcased his skills in the Wolves match prior to the international break. His setup for Pedro Neto combined blistering pace with a perfect grounded ball. His creation for Malo Gusto involved shifting infield prior to chipping a cross to the back post. His goal reaction with Neto, replicating his prior celebration with Kobbie Mainoo and Rasmus Højlund, acted as a indication of the pace with which situations evolve. The previous occasion Garnacho faced Walker? During the former scored for United in their cup final win over Manchester City. Burnley against Chelsea, Saturday afternoon half past twelve (start times GMT) Antoine Semenyo vital to ending Cherries' slump Antoine Semenyo is getting the full rumour-mill focus following a claimed £65m buyout clause for his potential winter exit, the gossip columns preparing him for graduation out of the Premier League's average tier. This is understandable for a winger with six finishes and three setups and remains joyous to watch. However, his side are in an tricky situation, having engaged in a role reversal: now it's the bottom-half team West Ham who enter with back-to-back victories, while Bournemouth are down 7-1 over two games over their past two matches after an strong opening to the season. Semenyo was denied on the penalty by Emi Martínez during the 4-0 defeat by Aston Villa however taking on a defence that hasn't kept a shutout since August could be the best tonic. Bournemouth against West Ham, Saturday afternoon 3:00 PM The striker a left-field choice for the Three Lions It was notable to listen to Thomas Tuchel reference Danny Welbeck repeatedly during the fixture pause although the Brighton forward turns 35 next week. “Even without knowing him, I am aware what he can give me,” said the England manager. “He might act as a back-up for Harry [Kane] in a very traditional No 9 role.” Gaining the most recent of his 42 caps in 2018, it's entirely possible that Welbeck could be on the plane for the World Cup assuming he manages to maintain his goalscoring exploits. The ex- Manchester United and Arsenal forward boasts more goals over every other English player in the Premier League this term with six and is anxious to increase that tally as Brighton welcome Brentford this weekend. Brighton vs Brentford, Saturday three o'clock Ryan Sessegnon needed as creator and goalscorer The Ryan Sessegnon tale has brought a measure of comfort to Fulham's inconsistent beginning. The left-sided player, who returned to his boyhood club recently after five tough years at Tottenham, has become a regular starter, pushing forward on the left flank due to the injury of the unavailable Antonee Robinson. The concern? With two goals, he's also their joint-top scorer in the league as well as Harry Wilson. Their main striker, their leading man in the last term, has bagged one goal while Rodrigo Muniz is injured until 2026 owing to hamstring surgery. Sessegnon is also being required to contribute as a creator in place of Robinson, who supplied 10 assists last season. The Cottagers' upcoming four games take in three from the top five and Crystal Palace, who have let in merely nine scores this season so far. Trouble awaits for a team that have earned a name for consistency in the middle. Fulham vs Sunderland, Saturday 3:00 PM 5. Time for The striker to deliver for the Reds The debate regarding Virgil van Dijk's chalked-off effort against Manchester City failed to mask Liverpool's inferiority during the match as they succumbed to a seventh defeat over ten fixtures. Arne Slot's side need a sustained recovery to force their way into the league contest from their current spot, as well as a dramatic boost in performance, and the possibility presents itself as seven from their following ten league games against clubs at the moment in the bottom ten of the table. The danger is clear from Nottingham Forest, the only team to inflict a home league defeat to the title holders last season, but it is not only Liverpool's performance versus long balls and counterattacks that remains under the spotlight. Now is the occasion that Alexander Isak to perform in a Liverpool shirt. The big-money forward has not featured for his club in a month having sustained a muscle issue when making his second appearance in the lineup over a short period in the Champions League triumph at Eintracht Frankfurt. The striker came back as a substitute during Sweden's loss against Switzerland but sat out the subsequent inconsequential game against Slovenia to ensure his fitness for next year's World Cup knockout rounds. A booking during the game might have made him ineligible. Isak may be short of|lacking|deficient
