If you’re a fan of the English Premier League, book in for a permanent slot on the sofa this weekend as there’s a barnstorming set of fixtures to tuck into.
There’s significance on every single EPL match between Saturday and Monday, so strap in.
Arsenal and Manchester City headline Sunday’s trio of games with their Emirates Stadium showdown, with the pair clinging on in the title race.
While the Gunners have ticked along largely untroubled in second place, City boss Pep Guardiola has overseen a rollercoaster ride that has seen his reigning champions fall off the proverbial cliff before rediscovering their composure in recent weeks.
They head to north London fourth in the Premier League table, six points behind Mikel Arteta’s hosts despite their travails.
Across the capital there’s a derby that could spell disaster for Tottenham, as they make the short trip to dangerous Brentford.
Spurs boss Ange Postecoglou is firmly in the firing line after a fourth league loss in a row left his side an unimaginable 15th in the standings, as they now go to a Bees side seven points better off.
Manchester United chief Ruben Amorim knows a thing or two about EPL pressure, too, despite his short Old Trafford tenure so far.
The Portuguese has at least managed two victories in the last three with his unconvincing Red Devils, who now host Crystal Palace a week after the Eagles’ own improving form was punctured on home turf by Brentford.
Monday night football keeps the capital city contests coming – and it’s another big one as Chelsea play host to West Ham and their former manager Graham Potter.
He makes his Stamford Bridge return having won just once since taking the London Stadium hotseat, while the Blues were also losers last time out to put a dent in their Uefa Champions League qualification dream.
Saturday also sees everything to play for across six more Premier League fixtures.
Leaders Liverpool face a fascinating task as they travel to the south coast to tackle red hot Bournemouth.
Andoni Iraola’s men have rattled in nine goals in their last two statement wins, hoisting them to seventh in the standings and just a point short of fourth-placed City.
The Reds are on a similar run under Arne Slot, sitting a healthy six points clear of Arsenal at the summit with a game in hand.
It’s a West Midlands affair for the Saturday evening kick off, as Wolves and Aston Villa renew hostilities at Molineux.
Unai Emery’s men are going well in their latest push for a top six Premier League finish and are basking from their Uefa Champions League progress in midweek.
Their Black Country hosts have no such cause for comfort, coming into the derby off the back of four straight defeats that sees them start the weekend inside the drop zone.
Beneath them on goal difference are Ipswich, who have in front of them their best opportunity of the season to collect a vital three points.
Sorry Southampton are the visitors to Portman Road, unable to buy a point never mind a victory, although the Tractor Boys have lost three on the spin themselves.
It’ll be just as tense at the latest installment of Goodison Park’s long farewell, with Everton and Leicester contesting yet another six-pointer.
Both have picked off Tottenham in recent weeks to return to winning ways, while David Moyes’ side also managed a pivotal win on the road last time out to give the Toffees a six-point cushion over Saturday’s visitors to Merseyside.
It was Brighton who were vanquished by Moyes and Co a week ago and they need to recover immediately if they are to rediscover their touch away to third-placed Nottingham Forest.
Nuno Espirito Santo’s men tasted a rare defeat themselves last weekend – a 5-0 thrashing at rampant Bournemouth, but know they will remain on the podium if they can secure at least a point at the City Ground in the Saturday lunchtime fixture.
Newcastle are among the clubs hot on their heels, mind you, as Fulham make the long trip north to St James’ Park.
The Toon Army would topple one or both of Forest and Manchester City if they better their respective results, with the west London club looking to break back into the top half following an inconsistent run of form.
