🔗 Share this article English top flight: 10 things to look out for this round of fixtures Walker faces Garnacho set for a fresh clash A Manchester reunion may be in store when Burnley's Kyle Walker lines up against Chelsea's Alejandro Garnacho in Lancashire. The attacker has started to settle with Chelsea following his off-season signing from Manchester United and showcased his talents in the Wolves match before the fixture pause. His assist for Pedro Neto mixed blistering pace with a flawless along-the-deck delivery. His contribution for Malo Gusto involved shifting infield prior to chipping a delivery to the back post. His joyous moment with Neto, mirroring his earlier celebration with Kobbie Mainoo and Rasmus Højlund, served as a testament of how quickly things transform. The last time Garnacho took on Walker? When the former scored for United in the FA Cup final victory against Manchester City. Burnley versus Chelsea, Saturday afternoon 12:30 PM (kick-offs GMT) The winger crucial to ending Cherries' slump Antoine Semenyo is attracting the complete gossip column attention following a reported £65m escape clause for his possible mid-season move, the media preparing him for graduation from the Premier League's mid-table ranks. This is understandable from a attacker who has six goals plus three setups and is joyous to watch. Nonetheless, Bournemouth occupy an tricky position, having undergone a form flip: it is the struggling side West Ham who come in with consecutive triumphs, whereas Bournemouth are down seven-one over two games in their past two matches following an strong start to the campaign. Semenyo saw his attempt stopped from the spot by Emi Martínez in their heavy loss to Aston Villa but facing a defence that hasn't kept a goalless game for months could be the best solution. Bournemouth against West Ham, Saturday 3pm 3. Welbeck a surprise choice for England It seemed intriguing to hear Thomas Tuchel mention Danny Welbeck repeatedly during the international break even though the Brighton forward turns 35 in the coming days. “Despite not having met him, I know what he can give me,” said the England boss. “He could serve as a back-up for Harry [Kane] playing a quite conventional No 9 position.” Having won the final 42 caps several years ago, there is every chance that Welbeck may be selected for the World Cup provided he is able to maintain his goal-getting performances. The former Manchester United and Arsenal striker boasts additional strikes over every other English footballer in the top flight this season on six and will be anxious to add to that tally when Brighton entertain Brentford on Saturday. Brighton against Brentford, Saturday afternoon 3pm 4. Sessegnon required as assist provider and scorer The Ryan Sessegnon tale has provided a degree of warmth to Fulham's uneven start. The left-sided player, who came back to his boyhood club last year after five difficult years with Spurs, has emerged as a first-team fixture, pushing forward on the left flank due to the injury of the sidelined Antonee Robinson. The issue? On two goals, he is their top goalscorer in the Premier League together with Harry Wilson. The Mexican striker, their top scorer in the last term, has scored a single goal while Rodrigo Muniz is injured for the long term due to hamstring surgery. Additionally, Sessegnon having to step up as a creator instead of Robinson, who provided ten helpers in the previous campaign. The Cottagers' next four games take in three among the best five plus Crystal Palace, who have allowed only nine strikes in the Premier League to date. A threat emerges for a team that have earned a reputation for mid-table stability. Fulham vs Sunderland, Saturday 3:00 PM The moment for The striker to deliver for Liverpool The controversy surrounding Virgil van Dijk's ruled-out strike against Manchester City did not camouflage Liverpool's shortcomings on the day as they fell to their seventh loss in 10 games. The coach's team must have a sustained recovery to force their way into the title race from here, plus a major improvement in form, and a chance emerges as seven out of their following ten league games facing sides at the moment in the bottom half in the standings. The danger is obvious posed by Nottingham Forest, the only team to inflict a home league defeat on the champions in the last term, but it is not only Liverpool's display when facing direct play and fast breaks that remains under the spotlight. It is time that Alexander Isak to perform in a Liverpool shirt. The expensive signing has not featured for his club for a month having sustained a muscle issue when making his second appearance in the lineup in quick succession in Europe victory at Eintracht Frankfurt. He reappeared off the bench during Sweden's loss by Switzerland but missed Tuesday's meaningless match against Slovenia to secure his fitness for next year's World Cup knockout rounds.
