Maurizio Sarri and Chelsea win big at Fulham as Liverpool and Manchester City both triumph: Premier League predictions

For the first time in three weekends there is a full Premier League programme of action, with no FA Cup or League Cup to cause distractions.

The focus is on the top of the table with leaders Liverpool travelling to Everton for the Merseyside derby on Sunday, while title rivals Manchester City are at Bournemouth.

Meanwhile, Fulham's caretaker manager Scott Parker faces a tough start in the role as his side play host to an in-form Chelsea who travel to Craven Cottage on Sunday fresh from beating Tottenham Hotspur on Wednesday.

Ahead of this round of fixtures, sports editor Graham Caygill has made his predictions and explained his reasoning in the photo gallery above. To move on to the next photo, click on the arrows, or if using a mobile device, simply swipe.
