The Premier League fixtures are coming thick and fast now, and with the first round of midweek action out of the way our attentions turn to Sunday’s quartet of top flight action.
It all kicks off with Brighton vs Sheffield United at lunchtime before a potentially pivotal clash further up the table as Spurs take on Leicester.
The intensity really ramps up at 16:30 though as rivalries are renewed at Old Trafford, with old enemies Leeds visiting Manchester United. Finally, you can sit back and end the weekend with a Midlands derby between West Brom and Aston Villa at the Hawthorns.
