The English Premier League returns this weekend after the international break, with several fixtures expected to test the form of the teams involved.
Among the standout matches are Arsenal’s clash with Leeds United, Chelsea’s meeting with Bournemouth and Manchester United’s encounter with Tottenham Hotspur.
Here are three fixtures that could produce surprise results.
1. Arsenal vs Leeds United
Arsenal will host Leeds United at the Emirates Stadium on Saturday as they look to return to winning ways following their 3-0 defeat to Brighton in their previous league match.
Leeds, meanwhile, will aim to build on their goalless draw against Crystal Palace.
With Leeds showing signs of resilience, Daniel Farke’s side could pose a challenge to Mikel Arteta’s men and potentially leave north London with a positive result.
2. Chelsea vs Bournemouth
Chelsea will welcome Bournemouth to Stamford Bridge on Saturday in a fixture that could prove difficult for the hosts.
The Blues suffered a 3-0 defeat to Brentford in their previous outing, while Bournemouth lost 1-0 to Liverpool.
Both sides will be looking to bounce back, but Bournemouth could take advantage of any defensive lapses from Chelsea to secure a positive result away from home.
3. Manchester United vs Tottenham Hotspur
Manchester United will face Tottenham Hotspur at Old Trafford on Saturday, with both teams seeking to improve their league form.
Tottenham suffered a 3-2 defeat to Aston Villa in their last outing, while Manchester United were held to a 1-1 draw by Fulham.
Despite Tottenham’s struggles, the visitors will hope to capitalise on Manchester United’s inconsistent performances and secure a result on the road.
