Kicking this off early partly because some of the URO big boys (Barca, Dortmund and PSG) are playing tonight, and partly because the numbers haven't been adding up recently; 35 posts yesterday ffs, eighty-odd today. Even without my constant stream of daytime bants-swerving and bookie-boasting you lads really ought to be doing better.

Biggest game of the weekend's arguably Arsenal/Liverpool, the best two sides in the division after nine games. Can only see it being a dull, dull draw, as Arsenal daren't risk a third home defeat in less than a fortnight, and Liverpool, though capable of the win, will know a draw's a good result, all things permitting.

Elsewhere, United, City and Chelsea should all win *really*. The two only other games of note are probably the Sunday double-header, with the first ever all-Welsh PL derby, and Everton versus Spurs.

Newcastle 1 Chelsea 2
Fulham 1 United 3
Hull 0 Sunderland 0
City 3 Norwich 1
Stoke 0 Southampton 0
West Brom 2 Palace 0
West Ham 2 Villa 1
Arsenal 1 Liverpool 1

Everton 2 Spurs 2
Cardiff 0 Swansea 1
