Premier League Matchday 10: Three Key Battles To Keep An Eye On

Loading player...
​Matchday 10 features three contrasting key battles across the English Premier League weekend.

​Nottingham Forest vs. Manchester United on Saturday is a test of consistency. Sean Dyche's men will hope their European win against Porto at the City ground will spark a revival and much needed domestic points. United, despite a three-game winning streak, must overcome persistent defensive lapses away from Old Trafford to secure a much-needed win on the road.

​The London derby between Tottenham Hotspur and Chelsea promises chaos on Saturday night. The Lilywhites need to find rhythm at the Tottenham Hotspur stadium, whilst Chelsea arrive with newfound defensive stability. Furthermore, the Blues have a significant psychological edge - Chelsea have not lost a league fixture to their North London rivals in years, making them the favorites.

​Finally, Liverpool vs. Aston Villa pits form against history at Anfield. Liverpool desperately need a positive result in this one to halt a disastrous loosing string. They face a formidable Aston Villa, who are the definition of a form team, securing four wins from their previous four league outings.
