Barcelona would be looking to get over their early struggles so far this season and earn their second win in 4 attempts here. They welcome a Valencia side that beat them in the Copa Del Rey final just a few months ago and their fans would be hoping they can avenge that loss.

Without the like of Lionel Messi and Luis Suarez, Barcelona has struggled this season despite having Antoine Griezmann leading their attack.

They are currently 8th on the league table after picking up just one win and 4 points from their opening 3 league games.

Valencia would also be looking to put their early struggles this season behind them when they visit the Nou Camp. They come here on the back of a 2-0 home win over Mallorca and would be looking to inflict more problems on the Catalans.

Both of these teams would be in Champions League action in midweek and it would be interesting to see if their managers decide to make changes to their starting line up here.

Manchester City will have to continue chasing Liverpool after VAR forced them to drop points against Tottenham. The Cityzens have faired well after that game and come here after a 4-0 win over Brighton at the Etihad.

Aguero and Kevin De Bruyne seem to be on an excellent run of form individually and that would be key for Guardiola in this title race.

City have been scoring for fun as they have scored at least 3 times in 3 of their four league games this season and it would be tough for Norwich who doesn’t exactly have the best defence to stop them here.

Norwich emphatically won the Championship last season, but they have found life back at the top flight a bit tougher.

  They have been a good team going forward, but they seem too light in defence and this has caused them to concede all sorts of goals.

Daniel Farke’s side has secured just one win and lost four games in all competitions this season.

They have conceded at least twice in all but one of their games this season, and that has to change if they want to survive.

Teemu Pukki has shown that he can bag the goals even in the top flight, but he would struggle to get even a sniff at goal in this game.

Brendan Rodgers would be taking his impressive Leicester City side to Old Trafford looking to cause an upset for the Red Devils.

Manchester United have continued to flatter to deceive this season and they may struggle to get even a draw from this game against the Foxes.

The Red Devils emphatically started their season as they beat Chelsea 4-0 at Old Trafford, however, another win has yet to come by and they lost their last home game 2-1 against Crystal Palace.

They have also dropped points against Wolves and Southampton despite the latter playing the final minutes of that game with just 10 men.

Leicester City is a team on the rise and they come here 3rd on the league table after winning 2 and picking up 2 draws in their opening 4 league games this season.

They have won their last two league games and would be keen to get a 3rd consecutive victory here.

Liverpool would be looking to maintain their 100 percent start to the league season when they take on Newcastle in this game.

The Reds have followed up finishing just a point behind Manchester City last season to lead the league by two points after four rounds of matches.

They begin their Champions League campaign on Tuesday at Napoli and Jurgen Klopp may be exploring the possibility of resting some of his star men for this clash.

With Allison the only high profile Liverpool player still out injured, the Reds would be feeling confident of securing another tough but big win in this game.

Newcastle United have had a mixed start to the new season.

Steve Bruce side lost their first two league games of the season but secured a shock 1-0 win over Tottenham at the 3rd time of asking. They have gone on to draw back-to-back games against Leicester City and Watford and their fans would feel they would need all the luck they can get just to stop Liverpool from embarrassing them.

Liverpool beat Newcastle in both fixtures last season and the form of Jurgen Klopp’s men would suggest that the same can happen here.
