Premier League preview: Arsenal host West Ham as Liverpool travel to Manchester City

A tasty weekend of Premier League action will be headlined by a blockbuster clash between Manchester City and Liverpool.

Man City will host Liverpool at the Etihad Stadium on the evening of Sunday 23 February, in a match which will be something of a ‘changing of the guard’, as the Reds look to claim a victory over the outgoing champions. Symbolically, this would confer the status of ‘champions elect’ to Arne Slot’s Liverpool – though the Dutchman remains well aware that the championship is far from confirmed.

“What I want from [my players] and what they want from each other is that they fight in every single game from the first until the last second to get the maximum result and that's what the fans expect from them playing for this club,” said Slot. “That's what we try to do in every single game and it's also necessary if you want to have any chance of a result in this league.”

Earlier on Sunday, Newcastle United and Nottingham Forest will meet in a crunch match at St James Park – a six-pointer as fas as the scrap to finish in the top four or five of the standings, and thereby secure qualification to next season’s UEFA Champions League.

“They are a difficult team to play against because they don't concede many chances and you're left fearing the worse when you go behind,” said Magpies manager Eddie Howe of the threat offered by Forest.

The round gets underway on Friday night with a clash between Leicester City and Brentford at the King Power Stadium, while Saturday’s early kick-off at Goodison Park sees Everton host Manchester United – with Toffees manager David Moyes hoping to put one over his former club.

Saturday’s late afternoon kick-offs are headlined by a London derby between Arsenal and West Ham United at the Emirates Stadium, while the early evening match pits Aston Villa against Chelsea – with the Birmingham side hoping new signing Marcus Rashford can make a big impact against the Blues.
