🔗 Share this article Premier division: ten key points to watch for this round of fixtures 1. Garnacho and Walker poised for a fresh clash A Mancunian rematch might be in store when the Clarets' Kyle Walker faces Chelsea's Alejandro Garnacho on Burnley's turf. The wide man is finding his feet with Chelsea after his close-season transfer from Manchester United and demonstrated his abilities versus Wolverhampton before the international break. His key pass for Pedro Neto combined blistering pace with a perfect grounded ball. His creation for Malo Gusto involved shifting infield prior to chipping a cross toward the far post. His joyous moment with Neto, replicating his prior hug with Kobbie Mainoo and Rasmus Højlund, was a reminder of the pace with which situations evolve. The last time Garnacho faced Walker? Back when the Argentine found the net for United in their Wembley triumph over Manchester City. Burnley against Chelsea, Saturday afternoon 12:30 PM (start times GMT) 2. Semenyo vital to halting Cherries' slide Antoine Semenyo is getting the full gossip column attention following a reported £65m release clause for a potential January departure, the gossip columns setting him up for advancement from the Premier League's average tier. This is predictable for a winger with six finishes plus three setups and remains joyous to watch. Still, Bournemouth find themselves in an difficult situation, having undergone a body swap: now it's the bottom-half team West Ham who arrive on consecutive triumphs, whereas Bournemouth have been beaten seven to one over two games over their past two games following an strong beginning to the campaign. Semenyo was denied from the spot by Emi Martínez in the 4-0 defeat to Aston Villa but facing a defensive unit lacking a shutout since August could be the best tonic. Bournemouth against West Ham, Saturday afternoon 3pm The striker a surprise choice for England It seemed intriguing to listen to Thomas Tuchel mention Danny Welbeck on more than one occasion during the national team window despite the fact that the Brighton attacker reaches 35 next week. “Without even having met him, I am aware what he could give me,” commented the England coach. “He could serve as a back-up for Harry [Kane] as a quite conventional centre-forward role.” Having won the most recent of his 42 international appearances several years ago, it's entirely possible that Welbeck may be on the plane to the World Cup provided he can maintain his goalscoring feats. The former Manchester United and Arsenal forward boasts additional strikes over every other English performer in England's top division this season having six and is keen to add to that tally when Brighton host Brentford this weekend. Brighton against Brentford, Saturday afternoon 3pm 4. Sessegnon required as creator and finisher The narrative around Ryan Sessegnon has offered a degree of warmth to Fulham's inconsistent beginning. The 25-year-old, who rejoined his boyhood club last year after five challenging years at Tottenham, has emerged as a first-team fixture, driving down the left in the absence of the injured Antonee Robinson. The issue? Having scored twice, he is their top goalscorer in the league together with Harry Wilson. The Mexican striker, their top scorer last season, has scored once while Rodrigo Muniz is out for an extended period because of a surgical procedure. Additionally, Sessegnon being required to contribute as a creator instead of Robinson, who provided ten helpers in the previous campaign. The Cottagers' upcoming four matches include three of the leading five and Crystal Palace, who have conceded just nine strikes in the league to date. A threat emerges for a side that have built a reputation for solidity in the central positions. Fulham against Sunderland, Saturday three o'clock 5. Time for Isak to produce for the Merseyside club The dispute about Virgil van Dijk's ruled-out strike against Manchester City could not hide Liverpool's shortcomings on the day as they fell to their seventh loss in 10 games. Arne Slot's team require a consistent improvement to enter the league contest from here, along with a significant improvement in form, and a chance arises with seven of their following ten top-flight fixtures against sides presently in the lower half of the table. The threat is clear posed by Nottingham Forest, the sole side to deliver a defeat on their own turf on the champions in the last term, but it is not only Liverpool's showing versus aerial passes and fast breaks that remains in focus. The moment has come that Alexander Isak to perform for Liverpool. The £125m striker has been absent for his club over four weeks after picking up a muscle issue while his second appearance in the lineup over a short period in continental competition triumph at Eintracht Frankfurt. Isak returned from the bench in Sweden's reverse against Switzerland but sat out the subsequent inconsequential game versus Slovenia to secure his fitness for next year's World Cup qualifiers. A yellow card during the game might have suspended him. Isak may be short of|lacking|deficient
