Overview

Gary Lineker introduces highlights from the Premier League's opening weekend, including Watford v Liverpool, Chelsea v Burnley, Everton v Stoke, Crystal Palace v Huddersfield, Southampton v Swansea, West Brom v Bournemouth and Brighton & Hove Albion v Manchester City, as well as Friday night's curtain-raiser between Arsenal and Leicester. Jurgen Klopp will be expecting his Liverpool side to make a winning start as they travel to Watford in Saturday's early game. The Reds won at Vicarage Road last season thanks to a stunning overhead kick by Emre Can, which was voted Match of the Day's Goal of the Season. Champions Chelsea will be looking for a repeat of last season's 3-0 home win over Burnley, while Brighton & Hove Albion face a tough start to life in the Premier League as they take on Pep Guardiola's Manchester City.
