The 2024-25 Premier League season kicked off on August 17, with Manchester United beating Fulham 1-0 at Old Trafford in the opening match.
The 20-team English top-flight is one of the most competitive and popular sports leagues in the world. In recent times, Manchester City have dominated the tournament, winning the title six of the last seven times.
Pep Guardiola's side, the four-time defending champions, will once again be looking to stamp their dominance this season. However, they face stiff competition from Mikel Arteta's Arsenal, who will look to finally break through after two narrow misses.
It will also be intriguing to see how the post-Jurgen Klopp era looks like for Liverpool.
The Sporting News looks at the key fixture details this week and how to follow the matches.
