With the September international break fast approaching, Arsenal and Liverpool are among the clubs who will be looking to extend unbeaten starts to the 2026-27 Premier League campaign on Saturday.
Defending champions Arsenal already look as formidable as last season, conceding just one goal in wins over Coventry City, Aston Villa and Chelsea.
Meanwhile, Liverpool have racked up five points from Andoni Iraola's first three Premier League matches in charge of the Merseyside giants.

Today's Premier League betting tips and predictions
Aston Villa vs. Nottingham Forest (3pm)
Aston Villa seem to be coming to life and can hope to continue their good run against Nottingham Forest as they seek their first Premier League win of the season.

Tip 1: Aston Villa to win
It’s entirely possible that Nottingham Forest could secure their long-awaited victory away at Villa, but I find it hard to really picture that happening.
The Villans have always been a tough side to beat at Villa Park, and I reckon it’s time they delighted their fans with a Premier League win.
Tip 2: Nicolas Jackson to score
Scoring goals has definitely been Aston Villa’s biggest problem so far, but they have enough decent strikers in their squad for us to see a performance more like the one against Bruges and less like the one against Hull City.
Ollie Watkins’ departure was a major blow for the team, but Villa have replaced him with Nicolas Jackson, who scored his first goal for the club against Brugge.
Perhaps Jackson will show his best form under Unai Emery, and Nottingham Forest’s defence looks like the perfect opportunity for him to prove himself.
Bournemouth vs. Brentford (3pm)
AFC Bournemouth will be looking to swap plaudits for Premier League points when they welcome Brentford to the Vitality Stadium.

Tip 1: Marcus Tavernier to have over 1.5 shots on target
Marcus Tavernier has started the season in good form for Bournemouth, scoring in two Premier League games. He's 10/3 at Bet365 for another goal and 12/5 for over 1.5 shots on target.
Tip 2: Over 11 corners
The Bees are usually good value for corners and three of their four games this term have hit double figures on that count. Backing over 11 corners in this game pays 11/8.
Chelsea vs. Hull City (3pm)
Chelsea will be looking to return to winning ways in the Premier League when they welcome Hull City to Stamford Bridge on Saturday afternoon.

Tip 1: Oliver McBurnie to be fouled at least once and commit at least one foul
Oliver McBurnie likes to throw his weight around when spearheading Hull’s attack. The Scotsman has both committed and drawn a foul in each of the Tigers’ opening three league games, so a repeat of that combination looks worth taking at 20/21 on bet365.
Tip 2: Cole Palmer to score anytime
Cole Palmer has found the net in two of Chelsea’s opening three Premier League games of the season and came off the bench to bag a brace and inspire the Blues’ midweek comeback against Leeds. The 4/5 available on the Chelsea ace to score anytime on Saturday therefore looks good value.
Crystal Palace vs. Ipswich Town (3pm)
Selhurst Park hosts Crystal Palace against Ipswich on Saturday with kick-off scheduled for 15:00. Palace return home after securing their first league victory of the season, while Ipswich are looking to end a run of two defeats.

Tip 1: Julio Enciso 2+ fouls won
Julio Enciso has been Ipswich's leading shooting threat across their opening three league matches.
He recorded three attempts and 0.23 xG against Sunderland, while also creating one chance and drawing two fouls. Enciso produced another three shots at Manchester United, with one on target, alongside 0.40 xG and 0.31 xA.
His volume increased against Liverpool. The Paraguayan registered six attempts, tested Alisson twice and created two chances from 0.24 xG.
Across 251 minutes, Enciso has taken 12 shots and hit the target three times. His overall return also includes 0.87 xG, 0.64 xA, four chances created and six fouls won.
Tip 2: Both teams to score
Both teams have scored four goals and conceded eight across their first three fixtures, with neither side establishing defensive control.
Palace have generated 4.59 xG and created 13 big chances, showing stronger attacking output than their results suggest. Ipswich have produced a similar total of 4.56 xG, giving the visitors enough threat to contribute at Selhurst Park.
The defensive figures strengthen the case. Palace have allowed 6.47 xGA from 59 shots, including 46 attempts inside the penalty area. Opponents have tested Dean Henderson 20 times.
Ipswich have conceded 5.91 xGA from 54 efforts. Their opponents have recorded 22 shots on target and created nine big chances.
Palace's attacking quality gives them a clear route to goal against a defence which conceded seven times across its last two matches. Ipswich have already scored twice against Sunderland and Manchester United, while Palace have allowed every opponent to generate regular opportunities.
Liverpool vs. Fulham (3pm)
Liverpool and Fulham meet at Anfield on Saturday, with kick-off scheduled for 15:00. The hosts enter the fourth round of fixtures after collecting four points from their previous two matches, while Fulham are looking to respond to consecutive defeats.

Tip 1: Over 2.5 goals and both teams to score
Liverpool have generated 5.42 xG from 50 shots across their opening three matches. They have recorded 29 attempts from inside the box and tested the goalkeeper 18 times, producing six goals.
Those attacking figures meet a Fulham defence which has allowed 6.23 xGA and 14 big chances. Arbeloa's side have conceded seven times, including three goals during the second half against Palace.
Liverpool's defensive problems against Nottingham Forest remain a risk, but the selected market does not require a clean sheet. Fulham have generated 36 shots inside the penalty area, giving them a route towards contributing to the goal total.
The home side possess the stronger finishing record and enter the game after scoring twice in each of their last two fixtures. Fulham have allowed opponents regular high-quality chances and have fallen behind in the decisive stages of consecutive defeats.
A Liverpool victory requires the hosts to convert their territorial advantage. The over 2.5 element is supported by Fulham's defensive output and their ability to reach attacking areas.
Tip 2: Liverpool win and over 2.5 goals
See above.
Tottenham Hotspur vs. Everton (5.30pm)
Spurs will look to secure their first Premier League win of the season as they welcome Everton to the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in the teatime kickoff on Saturday.
Click here to read our full expert preview for this match
Tip 1: Tottenham Hotspur to win
This is a fixture Spurs enjoyed last season, as they beat Everton at home and away, keeping clean sheets in each win.
What’s more, Tottenham have also won each of their previous four Premier League matches against the Toffees at their North London base, scoring 12 times and conceding just once.
Tip 2: Under 2.5 goals
This is a tricky clash to call – and whilst I’m not a big fan of betting on unders – opposing goals could be the best approach for this clash.
As alluded to, Spurs are yet to score a goal across their opening three Premier League matches this season, with each of their last two clashes seeing Under 2.5 Goals land.
Under 2.5 Goals has also paid out in 2/3 (67%) of Everton’s Premier League fixtures this term, and a repeat pays an appealing 10/11 at bet365.
Sunderland vs. Arsenal (8pm)
Arsenal will look to continue their perfect start to the defence of their Premier League crown as they travel to the Stadium of Light to take on Sunderland on Saturday night.
Click here to read our full expert preview for this match
Tip 1: Arsenal to win and Under 3.5 goals
Mikel Arteta only has to look back on this fixture last season to understand how tough a test the Stadium of Light can be under the lights.
However, the Gunners have started the season fantastically, winning all five of their matches in all competitions, scoring 10 times and conceding just once.
Arsenal are just 12/25 at bet365 to continue their winning run, but that can be boosted to 1/1 by throwing Under 3.5 Goals – a selection that has landed in all five of the Gunners’ victories this season.
Tip 2: Martin Odegaard to score or assist
Martin Odegaard has had a terrific start to the campaign for Arsenal, with the Gunners skipper already having registered four goals to his name in all competitions.
The Norwegian midfielder was the match-winner in Naples on Wednesday night, and he is an appealing 6/4 at bet365 to Score or Assist on Saturday.
