Premier League Fixtures: Live Stream, TV Schedule and Week 10 EPL Predictions

James DudkoOct 28, 2016

Premier League leaders Manchester City will look to snap a six-match run without a win when they travel to the Hawthorns to meet West Bromwich Albion on Saturday. City could even be second by the time they get underway, provided Arsenal don't lose in the weekend's early game at Sunderland.

Saturday will conclude with third-placed Liverpool, currently level on points with the Gunners and City, facing a tricky trip to Crystal Palace. However, it's Chelsea who face the more daunting away duty when they meet an accomplished Southampton squad on Sunday.

Here are viewing details for each of the league fixtures, along with predictions:

Sanchez to Get Back Among the Goals

Last week's 0-0 draw at home to Middlesbrough was only the second time this season the Gunners have failed to score in the league. The performances of Alexis Sanchez as a central striker have been a big factor in Arsenal's free-scoring form.

Yet qualities other than goals are beginning to define the Chilean as a centre-forward. Specifically, his runs off the ball and the penchant to drift wide have created space through the middle for others to exploit.

Theo Walcott and Mesut Ozil have been the chief beneficiaries of Sanchez's fondness for returning to the flanks or dropping off the front during matches. Ultimately, though, Arsenal's No. 7 will be judged by goals as a central striker.

Sadly, Sanchez hasn't scored in his last three league games. It's why BT Sport's Michael Owen recently questioned whether the former Barcelona man really is Arsenal's long-term answer through the middle: "Of course he’s very good at centre forward, but if Arsenal want to go and win the league or the Champions League, I think he would be better suited playing on the left."

Yet, despite Owen's reservations, Sanchez is a good bet to get back among the goals this week. For one thing, he'll be facing a Sunderland side breached 16 times already, per the league's official site.

Sanchez could also have more onus to get into scoring positions, with Walcott a doubt to play. Manager Arsene Wenger confirmed the England winger's status is uncertain for the weekend, according to Press Association Sport reporter Mark Mann-Bryans:

Expect Sanchez to ultimately prove the difference on what's likely to be a testing afternoon for the Gunners.

Liverpool's Shaky Defence Likely to Falter

Liverpool are legitimate title contenders under manager Jurgen Klopp. But the Reds' bid will live and die on the ability of a shaky defence to support the most free-flowing attack in England's top flight.

Klopp has constructed a stylish and devastating forward line, but it's been a different story at the back, per WhoScored.com:

Liverpool's back four is sure to be tested this week by a Palace side with some useful players up front, including a familiar face. Christian Benteke flopped at Anfield as a big-money buy from Aston Villa, but the beefy Belgian is still a menace in the air.

When he's motivated, Benteke is a handful. He's sure to be keen to prove a point to Klopp, the manager who jettisoned him from Merseyside.

Klopp has already expressed his concern about what Benteke might do, per James Carroll of Liverpool's official site: "In all moments in the last year, he always showed his quality. In the area he is really strong. He is not only good at heading, but he is especially good at heading, and has good technical skills."

Defending Benteke won't be about matching him in the air, though. Instead, the Reds must stem the supply from wide areas where wingers Andros Townsend and Wilfried Zaha are both major threats. Either player can torment midfielder-turned-left-back James Milner.

Liverpool have multiple goals in them every game, but this is one fixture where frailty at the back looks likely to cost Klopp's title-chasers vital points.

City, Arsenal and Tottenham Hotspur will look to put pressure on Liverpool before Saturday's late game, while Chelsea will hope to avoid slipping behind the main contenders on Sunday.
