Premier League commentators on NBC: Sep. 21 and 22

After a monumental win in the North London Derby last weekend, Arsenal is once again at the forefront of the Premier League. The Gunners, currently second in the Premier League with three wins and a draw, play their third game on the road in succession. Midweek, that was a trip to Italy to play Atalanta in the Champions League. Now, Arsenal goes north to Manchester to face Pep Guardiola’s City. City is the only team with a perfect record remaining in the Premier League, and this game already has the feeling of a title clash, even if it is the fifth game of the season for both.

All eyes will be on that game, which is the finale of the weekend. However, other games are certainly worth a watch. The opener for the weekend is a London rivalry between West Ham and Chelsea. It has not been the smoothest of starts for either team that had high expectations. That means it is as good a time as ever to put forth some momentum on the young season.

Saturday’s action concludes when Crystal Palace hosts Manchester United. Selhurst Park has not been kind to Erik ten Hag during his time in England. Palace derailed United’s brief title charge in the Dutchman’s first season in England. Then, last year, Palace knocked off Manchester United early in the season to add to the side’s growing woes. Erik ten Hag looks to pick up a first win at Selhurst Park this weekend to build form for United.
