The English Premier League, EPL, match-day 9 commenced on Friday night.<\/p>\n

Leicester City lost 3-1 at the King Power Stadium against Nottingham Forest.<\/p>\n

The remaining nine matches will take place today and tomorrow.<\/p>\n

Manchester City will host Southampton on Saturday evening at the Etihad Stadium.<\/p>\n

Chelsea will host Newcastle United at Stamford Bridge on Sunday, West Ham will face Manchester United at the London Stadium, and Crystal Palace will tackle Tottenham Hotspur.<\/p>\n

However, fans and pundits alike are talking about the potential for some shocking results in the Premier League this weekend as there are some fascinating contests to look forward to.<\/p>\n

First up is Man City vs Southampton. Pep Guardiola\u2019s side won their last League game 2-1 against Wolves last weekend.<\/p>\n

Southampton lost 3-2 at home to Leicester City.<\/p>\n

On paper, City are expected to beat Southampton and get their third back-to-back win.<\/p>\n

With Southampton also looking to take all three points against the Cityzens, this could be a closely fought affair as the Saints would hope to avoid a fourth back-to-back defeats.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Chelsea will be looking for a straightforward win against Newcastle United at home but they can ill-afford to underestimate their opponent.<\/p>\n

Both teams lost their last game against Liverpool and Brighton, respectively.<\/p>\n

The visitors will hope to avoid a defeat this weekend when they face the Blues at the Stamford Bridge and this could be a potential boost for them.<\/p>\n

West Ham will be looking to put in a strong performance against Manchester United at the London Stadium.<\/p>\n

The Hammers lost 4-1 to Tottenham Hotspur in their last game, while Man United won 2-1 against Brentford.<\/p>\n

Man United are sure to be wary of the hosts, who will like to avoid a home defeat on Sunday.<\/p>\n

Finally, Crystal Palace will be hoping to bounce back from their 1-0 defeat against Nottingham Forest in their last game when they face Tottenham Hotspur on Sunday.<\/p>\n

However, with Palace playing at home, this game could be a closer affair at the Selhurst Park than many are expecting.<\/p>\n
