Time flies when you are having fun and we are already in the third week of the Premier League season.

It has not been so great for Aston Villa, who have lost their opening two games, and they kick things off this week when they host Everton on Friday evening at 11pm UAE time.

Chelsea are also winless and Frank Lampard's men travel to Norwich City in Saturday's opening game at 3.30pm.

There are four 6pm games, the highlight being unbeaten Manchester United facing Crystal Palace.

The two sides with 100 per cent records, Liverpool and Arsenal, meet at Anfield at 8.30pm.

Champions Manchester City are in action on Sunday at 5pm at Bournemouth, while Tottenham Hotspur v Newcastle United and Wolverhampton Wanderers v Burnley take place at 7.30pm.
