Premier League team news: predicted line‑ups for the weekend

Saturday’s Premier League slate features two high‑profile clashes that will be shown on TNT Sports 1. The first kick‑off is at 12.30 pm at the Emirates, where Manchester City face Liverpool, followed later in the day by Tottenham’s trip to Old Trafford.

According to The Guardian, City return from an “trying” international break and are expected to stick with the core group that secured the title last season. Manager Pep Guardiola will likely rely on his regular back four and the midfield partnership that helped them dominate earlier in the campaign, while Liverpool’s Jurgen Klopp is expected to field the squad that helped his side secure a top‑four finish.

Spurs, on the other hand, travel to Manchester United with the expectation of a relatively stable starting eleven. Tottenham manager Ange Postecoglou is likely to keep his preferred attacking trio and the defensive line that has kept United under pressure this term, according to the same source.

Both matches will be broadcast live on TNT Sports 1, and readers can find related match highlights on this site after the games.
