Bournemouth and Everton battle it out on Saturday afternoon after both sides had opposite starts to their Premier League campaigns last weekend. The Cherries, who finished sixth last season to secure Europa League football for this campaign, suffered a 2-1 defeat at Manchester City last Sunday. Marco Rose will be taking the positives from the Etihad defeat though. Bournemouth looked set to steal all three points thanks to Marcus Tavernier’s first-half goal, however, Marc Guehi and Joško Gvardiol bagged for City in the 84th and 92nd minute to secure the comeback victory. Everton, who beat Preston 4-0 in the Carabao Cup second round on Wednesday evening, had an underwhelming season last time out with David Moyes’s side ending up in 13th and 10 points off the relegation zone. The Toffees kicked off their league campaign with a 2-0 win against Crystal Palace thanks to goals from Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall and Thierno Barry. Moyes will be hoping they can find form early on this season as Everton look to finish in the top half for the first …

Two of the three newly-promoted sides face off in the Premier League on Saturday afternoon as Coventry host Hull. Frank Lampard’s side, who beat Plymouth 4-2 in the Carabao Cup second round on Tuesday evening, are eyeing their first Premier League points after losing 3-0 at Arsenal in their opener last week.

Many expected Hull to struggle in their opener like Coventry, however, Sergej Jakirović’s side beat Manchester United 2-0 at home thanks to goals from Semi Ajayi and Nobel Mendy. Hull, who were promoted via the Championship play-offs last season, beat Stoke on penalties in the Carabao Cup second round on Tuesday night and they’ll be hoping to keep their winning run going against Coventry on Saturday.

Nottingham Forest kick off the Oliver Glasner era by hosting Leeds United on the opening day of the Premier League season on Saturday. Former Crystal Palace chief Glasner is the Reds’ fifth manager in less than a year after Nuno Espírito Santo, Ange Postecoglou, Sean Dyche and Vítor Pereira took their places in the dugout last term. The Austrian enjoyed a trophy-laden spell at Selhurst Park and City Ground chief Evangelos Marinakis will be hoping he can bring success to the club following last season’s dismal 16th-place finish. Leeds enjoyed a successful return to the Premier League in 2025/26 by finishing two places higher than Forest in the table. Elland Road bigwigs are eager to kick on and Daniel Farke’s squad has been strengthened by the arrivals of James Trafford, Tarik Muharemović, Harry Wilson and Nico Elvedi over the summer.

Ipswich begin life back in the Premier League by hosting last season’s surprise package Sunderland on Saturday. The Tractor Boys finished second in the Championship in 2025/26 to secure an instant return to the top tier, although they head into the new campaign under fresh management following Kieran McKenna’s surprise departure in June. Former Bournemouth and Wolves boss Gary O’Neil has taken the reins and revamped Ipswich’s squad with a whole host of new signings in a bid to avoid another relegation. Sunderland, on the other hand, have been quiet in the transfer market ahead of their second year back in the big time, with veteran full-back Thomas Meunier being the only arrival on a freebie. Régis Le Bris led the Black Cats to seventh place and Europa League qualification last term and the Frenchman will be wary about the dreaded ‘second season syndrome’.

Everton will be looking to win on the opening day of the season for the first time in five years when they welcome Crystal Palace to the Hill Dickinson Stadium on Saturday. The Toffees, who have lost their last four openers without scoring, finished 13th in last season’s Premier League and David Moyes believes he still needs a few additions, including a right-back if his side are to climb the table this term. One of Everton’s major transfers so far involved a swap deal with Crystal Palace as Brennan Johnson and Dwight McNeil changed clubs and the pair could feature against their old teams. The Eagles head into the new campaign under new management following Oliver Glasner’s departure in the wake of last season’s Conference League success. Pierre Sage was recruited from Lens as Glasner’s replacement and the Frenchman is hoping to head back to the capital with all three points on his managerial debut in England.
