In the modern era every single Premier League game is an exciting one, contrary to what some fans may lead you to believe. When it comes to this game, in particular, there s a lot of intrigue surrounding these two sides after poor respective starts to their league campaigns.

Erik ten Hag defended his decision to substitute Cristiano Ronaldo during Manchester United s 0-0 draw with Newcastle United on Sunday, insisting he wants to keep the striker fresh for a packed fixture schedule.
Ronaldo, starting a Premier League for the first time since August 13, managed just a single shot before he was hauled off in the 72nd minute for Marcus Rashford.
The Portuguese superstar looked visibly annoyed as he walked off the pitch, and continued to shake his head in the dugout as United struggled to break down Eddie Howe s side.
United face Premier League matches against Tottenham and Chelsea over the next week, and Ten Hag said Ronaldo was brought off with a view to preserving him for those games.
We have to recover as we have four games …
