Saturday's early kick off sees Arsenal host Burnley and both these sides made winning starts last weekend. The Gunners came away from their visit to Newcastle with a 1-0 win thanks to Aubameyang 's second half strike whilst Ashley Barnes was on target twice as Burnley came through with a 3-0 home win over Southampton.Last season Arsenal won both meetings with Burnley by a 3-1 scoreline and they have won 9 and drawn 1 of the last 10 Premier League head to heads against this opposition. That record looks hard to get away from although I fancy Burnley can be competitive and Arsenal to edge it by a single goal margin is my pick.

In the afternoon kick offs Aston Villa's first home game back in the top flight comes against a Bournemouth side who will have been disappointed with last week's 1-1 draw at home to another newly promoted side Sheffield United. Villa threatened a surprise at Spurs last week, taking an early lead only to concede 3 goals in the last 17 minutes but this is a more realistic opportunity to open their account. I was burned by Bournemouth last week and will go with Villa here although it's something of a speculative call.

Brighton's home game against West Ham and Newcastle's visit to Norwich look like tough games to call whilst big spending Everton, who had to settle for a point away at Palace last week, host Watford who crashed to a 3-0 home defeat to Brighton first time out.

That bring's us on to Liverpool who made short work of Norwich with a 4-1 win at Anfield last week. A trip to Southampton should hold no fears although involvement in the Uefa Super Cup in midweek doesn't help. Liverpool have beaten Southampton by margins of at least 2 goals in each of the last 4 meetings and I can see Klopp's side winning a game of 3 goals or more in total.

We finish with the headline clash between Manchester City and Spurs. City won both league meetings by a 1-0 scoreline last season but Spurs came through a thrilling Uefa Champions League semi final on away goals (4-4 aggregate) which included an epic 7 goal thriller in Manchester.City coasted to a 5-0 win away to West Ham in their opening game whilst Spurs struck late to get the better of Villa (3-1). City won 18 and lost 1 of their 19 home games on their way to the title last season with Palace the only side to deny them a foot perfect record in front of their own supporters.In the current title race betting Sportingbet make City a 9/20 chance with Liverpool trading at 26/10 and Spurs are third favourites at 18/1. Sportingbet are also betting “without City” and Spurs are a 5/1 shot.

I'll go with a match result bet and given there was only 1 goal in it in 4 meetings between the teams last season the draw could be worth a speculative play even though City rarely finish all square.

Saturday's bets:

Arsenal to win by a margin of 1 goal exactly at 28/10

Aston Villa to win at 27/20

Liverpool to win and over 2.5 total match goals at 19/20

Man City and Spurs to draw at 9/2
