So far in the English Premier League three teams have been perfect across their first two games, with Brighton and Hove Albion, Manchester City and Arsenal all maintaining a 100% record.
The standout fixture this weekend is undoubtedly Liverpool’s visit to St. James’ Park where they take on Newcastle United, but there is a lot more to look forward to up and down the league.
Here’s what to look out for on matchday three with some exclusive booking codes to use.
Burnley to spring a surprise against Aston Villa?
Aston Villa’s season has been a rollercoaster so far, despite it only being three games old. They lost their opening fixture 5-1 to Newcastle United, before thrashing Everton 4-0 last weekend and then beating Hibernian 5-0 in their European qualifier yesterday.
Burnley lost their opening fixture 3-0 to champions Manchester City despite giving a good account of themselves, and didn’t play last weekend due to their match with Luton Town being postponed.
It will be interesting to see if Burnley’s 15 day rest between matches compared to the 3 days that Aston Villa have will give them an advantage – Villa have conceded goals this season and will have to rotate their team from midweek.

Isak to continue his form against Liverpool?
Swedish sensation Alexander Isak started the season in magnificent form against Aston Villa, scoring twice and proving why so many people have been talking about him.
Despite Liverpool’s new midfield signing Wataru Endo performing well on debut against Bournemouth, Newcastle’s all-action approach will surely create holes in The Red’s defence and give Isak the opportunity to net again.

Shaky Manchester United face tough test against Forest
Nottingham Forest have started the season in fine form, pushing Arsenal right until the final whistle at the Emirates Stadium before beating Sheffield United 2-1 at the City Ground.
Manchester United have looked fragile in both their opening fixtures, lucky to not concede against Wolverhampton Wanderers before being overpowered by Tottenham Hotspur.
Taiwo Awoniyi has scored in his opening two matches and will fancy himself to net again this weekend.

Brighton and Hove Albion – The Seagulls are flying
Brighton have started the season in superb form, scoring eight goals across their first two matches. The likes of Kaoru Mitoma and Solly March have caused serious problems for their opposition so far and will look at West Ham United as an opportunity to get on the scoresheet once again.
West Ham United shocked Chelsea to win last week, but a journey down to the coast to play Roberto De Zerbi’s side is a tough task. Brighton will certainly expect to come out on top in this fixture, with plenty of goals involved.
