Jurgen Klopp and Mikel Arteta will do battle once again this weekend

The Premier League serves up an Easter feast this weekend with all 20 sides in action.

Leaders Arsenal head to Anfield for a mouth-watering Sunday showdown with Liverpool, with chasers Manchester City hoping to apply the pressure when they visit Southampton a day earlier.

Get clued up on all 10 fixtures with our comprehensive preview.

Manchester United vs Everton (Saturday, 12.30pm, BT Sport)

Manchester United will look to steal a march on their top-four rivals with victory over Everton in Saturday's early kick-off.

The Red Devils have only lost one of their last 29 top-flight meetings with the Toffees at Old Trafford, though the last three such clashes have all ended level.

Sean Dyche has his visitors unbeaten in four matches and the 51-year-old can become the first English boss to win away at Old Trafford with two different sides, having led Burnley to a famous victory in January 2020.

Everton should at least fancy their chances of scoring here, having netted in the last nine Premier League meetings between the pair — though they have never done so in 10 consecutive encounters.

Aston Villa vs Nottingham Forest (Saturday, 3pm)

High-flying Aston Villa will be firm favourites to notch a sixth win in seven Premier League outings against poor travellers Nottingham Forest.

The hosts have not won three straight top-flight games at Villa Park in the same campaign since 2007 but have only lost one of their last 14 league meetings with Forest.

Meanwhile, Steve Cooper's side have won just one of their 14 away matches since returning to the top tier and have lost their last six league matches with sides from the Midlands.

Early drama may be the order of the day here, with the last six head-to-head clashes seeing a goal inside the opening 20 minutes.

Brentford vs Newcastle (Saturday, 3pm)

Brentford must arrest a poor record against Newcastle if they are to get their stuttering season back on track.

Thomas Frank's men have slid down to ninth after winning just one of their last five outings and are without a victory in three previous Premier League meetings with the Magpies.

Newcastle convincingly triumphed 5-1 in the reverse fixture last October and have not lost any of their last seven league clashes with the West Londoners — though the Bees are a tough nut to crack at home.

Since league leaders Arsenal won 3-0 back in September, Brentford are unbeaten in 10 top-flight matches at the Gtech Community Stadium.

Fulham vs West Ham (Saturday, 3pm)

Struggling West Ham have history on their side as they make the short trip across London to face Fulham.

The Hammers remain entrenched in the relegation battle but have won four of their last five clashes with Cottagers — and seven of their 12 Premier League trips to Craven Cottage.

Marco Silva's men only lost two of their first 10 league games after the mid-season World Cup break but are now on a three-game losing streak, with talismanic striker Aleksandar Mitrovic currently serving an eight-game ban.

Visiting striker Michail Antonio has bagged four goals in his last six meetings with Fulham, including the final goal in West Ham's 3-1 victory at the London Stadium earlier this season.

Leicester vs Bournemouth (Saturday, 3pm)

Leicester should be pleased to see Bournemouth roll into town for a monstrous six-pointer at the foot of the table.

The Foxes have never lost a Premier League home match to the Cherries in five meetings at the King Power Stadium, with Bournemouth having lost eight of their last nine away league games this term.

However, they did win the reverse fixture 2-1 in October and are therefore looking to complete a first league double over Leicester since the 1988-89 campaign.

In-form Marcus Tavernier is aiming to become only the second ever Cherries player to score in three straight top-flight away games after Joshua King did so in March 2017.

Tottenham vs Brighton (Saturday, 3pm)

Harry Kane is enjoying another stellar campaign in front of goal despite Tottenham's struggles

Two teams hopeful of qualifying for next season's Champions League do battle when Tottenham welcome Brighton to North London.

Spurs once again threw away a lead late against Everton in Cristian Stellini's first game as interim boss, though they have won four straight home games in the Premier League.

They will need to be at their best against a confident Seagulls side who have averaged two goals per game on the road this campaign and won this fixture 1-0 last season.

Harry Kane has nine career strikes against Brighton and is looking to make them the ninth team he has netted double-figure goals against in his career.

Wolves vs Chelsea (Saturday, 3pm)

Frank Lampard begins his second stint as Chelsea boss with a trip to Wolves.

Fittingly, the Blues' last win at Molineux came under Lampard's tutelage in September 2019, with three of the last four meetings between the teams ending level.

Chelsea generally enjoy this fixture, losing only three of 19 clashes this century, though their six away defeats this term is already double the amount they suffered in 2021-22.

The hosts have only won one of their last seven but have emerged victorious from their last three home clashes against sides above them in the table.

Southampton vs Manchester City (Saturday, 5.30pm, Sky Sports)

Manchester City cannot afford any more away day woes when they visit basement club Southampton.

The Citizens have failed to win six of their 14 top-flight matches on the road this season and suffered a surprising Carabao Cup exit at St Mary's when beaten 2-0 back in January.

However, Saints are currently without a win in four outings and have triumphed in only one of their last 13 Premier League meetings with the reigning champions.

Kevin De Bruyne currently has 99 Premier League assists to his name and will become only the fifth player in the competition's history to reach a century after Ryan Giggs (162), Cesc Fabregas (111), Wayne Rooney (103) and Lampard (102),

Leeds vs Crystal Palace (Sunday, 2pm, Sky Sports)

A win for either Leeds or Crystal Palace would represent a huge step towards Premier League survival on Sunday afternoon.

The hosts should be confident ahead of this encounter, having won their last seven home matches against the Eagles, though they did lose 2-1 at Selhurst Park earlier this term.

Roy Hodgson's first game back as Palace boss ended in victory over Leicester, with their 31 shots taken in that fixture representing their highest tally in a top-flight fixture since December 2018.

Leeds are also winless in their last nine matches against teams from London — though their boss Javi Gracia is undefeated in three previous meetings with Hodgson and Palace.

Liverpool vs Arsenal (Sunday, 4.30pm, Sky Sports)

Arsenal know snapping their Anfield curse may prove pivotal if their brilliant campaign is to conclude with a Premier League trophy.

The Gunners have lost their last six away league trips to Liverpool, with the Reds scoring at least three times in each of those meetings — 22 times in total.

Jurgen Klopp's men are without a victory in four games but have won their last three home league matches by an aggregate score of 11-0, including last month's 7-0 thumping of Manchester United.

Mohamed Salah was rested against Chelsea in midweek but, if recalled, will be looking to score in a fourth straight Premier League home game for the first time since June 2020.
