Team news/injuries

Tottenham’s injury worries have let up for the most part. While Spurs are still without Sessegnon and Lo Celso, everyone else is available for Pochettino. As for Man City, they will be without John Stones for a month due to a muscle injury while Foden is a doubt due to illness. Laporte and Sane are two long-term absentees for Guardiola.

Man United, meanwhile, are in the midst of a crisis. They are without Pogba, Martial, and Shaw while Daniel James is a doubt for their clash with Man United. Arsenal also have some concerns ahead of their clash with Aston Villa. Tierney, Bellerin, and Mavropanos are not available, as is Lacazette after being ruled out until October. On top of that, Kolasinac is a doubt due to a muscle injury.

Chelsea have several concerns. Kante and Emerson have returned to full training but will not play unless passing the fitness test. Question marks linger over Mount, Hudson-Odoi, and Rudiger as well. Similarly, Keita has returned to training for Liverpool but will face a test. Alisson, on the other hand, remains on the sidelines.

Key stats

Pellegrini could become the West Ham manager with the highest win percentage should he guide the Hammers to victory over Man Utd.
Liverpool have won only one of their last 12 away league games against their top six rivals, drawing six and losing five. They conceded 22 and scored only 12 along the way.
Should the Reds beat Chelsea on Sunday, they will tie the second longest winning run in English top division history with 15 consecutive triumphs, moving level with Man City’s run from February to August 2019.
Since the start of last season, Arsenal have become the team with the most number of penalties conceded, most errors leading to shots, and most errors leading to goals.

What is social media saying ahead of Matchday 6?

Will Man United end their away woes?

After going three straight games without a win, Man United have now won back-to-back games – one in the league and the other in the Europa League. However, Solskjaer’s men have another hoodoo to tackle when they take on West Ham.

The Red Devils are without an away win in all competitions since March, with the victory at PSG being their last taste of triumph. Their latest injury crisis will make things difficult but the Premier League giants will look to Rashford to guide them to three points.

3-1 vs PSG
2-0 vs Arsenal
2-1 vs Wolves
2-1 vs Wolves
3-0 vs Barcelona
4-0 vs Everton
