A full 10-game slate of games graces TV screens this weekend as all 20 Premier League teams are in action. It is the final third of the season, and the title race is razor-thin. Several key matchups this weekend could go a long way in determining the eventual champions of the Premier League, as well as European spots and which three teams go down.
The biggest game of the weekend is the Manchester Derby. United’s inconsistent form may take out some of the intrigue. After all, City has dominated the red side of Manchester in recent years. For example, City won at Old Trafford earlier this season behind an Erling Haaland brace. Manchester United will have to contend with the Norwegian on fine form after he scored five goals in an FA Cup win over Luton midweek.
The other title contenders, Arsenal and Liverpool, have road games against relegation candidates. On Saturday, Liverpool travels to the City Ground to play Nottingham Forest. Then, Arsenal wraps up the weekend’s action on Monday with a game against Sheffield United.
One game that could be notable is Tottenham hosting Crystal Palace. Oliver Glasner’s first game as the boss at Selhurst Park went down without issue as the Eagles won 3-0 over Burnley. Now, he takes Palace to north London to face a Spurs team that is clinging to fifth in the league table. Recent form has not been kind to Ange Postecoglou, but the chances of reaching the Champions League are still high.
