Another exciting weekend of Premier League football awaits, with Newcastle United taking on Liverpool in the headline fixture on Sunday.
Former Leicester City, Blackburn Rovers and Derby County midfielder Robbie Savage runs through the fixtures and provides a tip in each match.
Chelsea vs Luton
"Chelsea take on Luton on Friday night Luton in the Premier League. Remarkable story, what a job Rob Edwards has done and he's coming up against the Chelsea side who have only won five of their last 31 Premier League games.
"This will be six from 32 I've got no doubt that Chelsea with good recruitment will start winning games.
"I think this game will be to nil. I'm gonna go Chelsea four, Luton Town nil."
Tip: Chelsea to win
Bournemouth vs Tottenham
"Bournemouth took on Spurs back in April and it finished 3-2 to Bournemouth.
"I think Spurs under Ange Postecoglou, Ange-ball, the way they played against Manchester United, Spurs fans are really happy with the style of play.
"Listen, they might not win a trophy, but they've got a style of football now that they're going to appreciate.
"I'm going Spurs to win this game and I'm gonna go Spurs to keep a clean sheet and win 2-0."
Tip: Tottenham to win
Arsenal vs Fulham
"Arsenal take on Fulham on Saturday. Arsenal got a great record against Fulham. They're unbeaten in their last 10 Premier League games. This will be 11, no doubt about it.
"I'm gonna go Arsenal - with the attacking powers they have - to win this game and I think they'll get goals.
"I'm going Arsenal three, Fulham nil."
Tip: Arsenal to win
Brentford vs Crystal Place
"Brentford take on Crystal Palace. Will there be a winner in this one? If you look at the stats, the last four meetings have ended in a draw.
"Crystal Palace on the back of a defeat against Arsenal on Monday night come into this one. Will they get anything at Brentford? I don't think they will.
"Both seem to score, Brentford 2-1."
Tip: Brentford to win
Everton vs Wolves
"The bottom two take on each other at Goodison Park, Everton take on Wolves.
"Everton, they can't score goals. No goals in the Premier League this season, conceding five.
"Wolves also conceding five in their opening two games so defences not on top at all, attackers not on top.
"Calvert Lewin out for Everton. Where are the goals going to come from for Sean Dyche and his side?
"On the evidence of Wolves' last away performance at Old Trafford, I thought they were very very good.
"I'm gonna go with a narrow Wolves 1-0 win at Goodison."
Tip: Wolves to win
Manchester United vs Nottingham Forest
"Manchester United take on a Nottingham Forest. Well on the evidence of the stats, this should be an easy win for Manchester United.
"In all competitions in the last 10 meetings between these two sides, Manchester United have won 10.
"They're not playing well. They got three points against Wolves. They didn't get any against Spurs.
"Nottingham Forest scored at the Emirates. I said that score and I think they'll score in this one as well. But I just think Manchester United, who aren't playing well, will nick this one 2-1."
Brighton vs West Ham
"Brighton against West Ham. Brighton, eight goals in the Premier League, top scorers in the Premier League take on a West Ham side who are winless in their last 12 matches against Brighton.
"The last time West Ham beat Brighton, this was a Championship game. Since then West Ham have won a European trophy, Brighton have got into Europe, both teams doing really really well.
"But, De Zerbi, what a job he's doing. I'm gonna go with a Brighton win to make it three from three. I'm going Brighton two, West Ham nil."
Tip: Brighton to win
Burnley vs Aston Villa
"Burnley take on Aston Villa. You expect goals in this one, there's been goals in every game Aston Villa has played this season.
"They conceded five up in Newcastle, scored four against Everton, scored five in the Europa Conference League qualifier against Hibs. There will be goals.
"Burnley at Turf Moor, at the start of the season these at the games which Vincent Kompany will have looked at. A home game against Aston Villa, can we take anything out of the game?
"I don't think they will. Unai Emery has got a fantastic team playing great football, dynamic football scoring goals. I'm going with a Villa away win, 3-1."
Tip: Aston Villa to win
Sheffield United vs Manchester City
"Sheffield United take on Manchester City.
"Man City won five straight games against Sheffield United, make this six. Listen, the atmosphere at Bramall Lane or be pumping, but Manchester City will be going there looking to score goals.
"I think they'll keep a clean sheet and we're gonna go Man City to win 3-0."
Newcastle vs Liverpool
"Newcastle take on Liverpool and they'll be looking to break that record of not winning against Liverpool in their last 13 games, but this is a different Newcastle.
"Newcastle's last win came back in 2015. But you've got to expect goals, with Liverpool in transition on the counter.
"So you've got to be looking at Salah to get a goal away from home. But, I'm gonna go with Newcastle to score two. Newcastle two, Liverpool one."
Tip: Newcastle to win
