Hosts Dan Bardell and George Elek are joined by bet365's Steve Freeth to preview what promises to be another hugely exciting weekend of Premier League football... Can Man United bounce back away at Arsenal, buoyed by the announcement that Erik ten Hag will become the new manager this summer? Will title-chasing Liverpool drive city rivals Everton into the bottom three and could Brentford's Christian Eriksen cost Conte's Spurs more ground in the race for Top 4?
Plus, how good Thiago is at not getting booked, why Chelsea are so bad at home and why Leeds were right to hire Jesse Marsch.
