After two matchdays, Manchester City, Arsenal, Liverpool, and Brighton remain undefeated in the Premier League. Liverpool’s new manager, Arne Slot, has made an impressive start with two wins and no goals conceded.
Slot’s first major test comes this weekend as Liverpool travels to Old Trafford to face Manchester United. United has had a mixed start to the season, winning their opener against Fulham but losing to Brighton last weekend. Erik ten Hag, United’s manager, is under pressure to deliver results after the club’s disappointing eighth-place finish last season.
Another intriguing matchup this weekend is between Newcastle and Tottenham. Newcastle has four points from two games but has struggled to strengthen its squad in the transfer market. Tottenham has also had a mixed start, cruising past Everton but drawing with Leicester.
Brighton, one of the league’s biggest spenders this summer, will face a tough test against Arsenal at the Emirates. Brighton has won its first two games, but manager Fabian Hurzeler acknowledges the challenge of facing Arsenal, one of the world’s top teams.
