Unai Emery and Aston Villa are flying and will be eyeing a sixth Premier League win in nine

Five games make up the Saturday quota in the Premier League, with leaky Southampton facing an arduous trip to face champions Manchester City at the Etihad Stadium and Everton putting their recent upturn in form to the test when Fulham visit Goodison Park.

Aston Villa vs Bournemouth (3pm)

Aston Villa have been outstanding so far this season and will be on a high for this home game with Bournemouth after they moved to the top of the Champions League table on Tuesday thanks to a 2-0 win over Bologna.

Unai Emery's side have lost just once in all competitions and they should secure another victory when they face a Cherries outfit that has lost their last two top-flight away matches without scoring.

Brentford vs Ipswich (3pm)

Brentford have been in great form at their Gtech Community Stadium home, managing three wins from their first four games when comfortably seeing off Southampton, Crystal Palace and Wolves.

They will be confident of extending their unbeaten run on home soil to five matches against an Ipswich outfit that has been competitive in plenty of games so far but continues to struggle to get results.

Brighton vs Wolves (3pm)

Wolves showed enough against Manchester City last weekend to suggest they are capable of picking up wins in the league when they are at their best but with Brighton flying high under the impressive Fabian Hurzeler, it could be a similar tale of pain for the visitors here.

In each of their last six defeats they have at least got on the scoresheet, though, and another familiar defeat looks to be on the horizon.

Manchester City vs Southampton (3pm)

There is a concern this could get ugly, and quickly, for Southampton. Russell Martin's men threw away a 2-0 lead at home when losing to Leicester last weekend and they can ill-afford to be as generous at the Etihad.

Expect a routine home win, with Pep Guardiola's side very capable of overcoming a two-goal handicap against the porous visitors.

Everton vs Fulham (5.30pm)

Fulham striker Raúl Jimenez has scored five goals in his last six starts for club and country

Fulham have only failed to score against Manchester United this season and there is no shame in that, considering it came on the opening night of the campaign and they were away from home.

Since then, Marco Silva's team have clicked into gear and are looking threatening in every game they play in.

Everton have scored five goals in four games to climb the table and they will fancy their chances of scoring against a Cottagers side that has shipped six goals in two matches.
