All 3 promoted sides already have a win under their belt. Wonder if all those who predicted the 3 sides to go straight back down have changed their opinion?

He takes the number 10 shirt and is expected to be introduced to the fans before kick-off.
This is the signing that has lifted the fans and it's going to be a huge noise to welcome him to the club.
Burnley 2-0 Sunderland
A big win for Burnley as they beat fellow newly-promoted side Sunderland to secure their first victory this season.

Burnley 2-0 Sunderland
Sunderland have a corner in the last minute of the 10 added on. It is played to Omar Alderete but he doesn't connect well with his shot.
FT: Bournemouth 1-0 Wolves
Vitor Pereira and the Wolves squad make their way over to the travelling fans to applaud their efforts and offer encouragement.
It's a second loss on the spin to start the season but they can take positives for how they performed after being reduced to 10 men.
Brentford 1-0 Aston Villa
All over!
Keith Andrews secures his first Premier League win in charge of Brentford but it is two games without victory for Aston Villa now.

Based on the two weekends, West Ham are looking like the prime contender for relegation.

It has been a battle of a game and it has suited Brentford.
Dig in and fight. If you have got that as a team then you have got half a chance.

Sophorific performance by Aston Villa, no positives whatsoever.

Loum Tchaouna is inches away from a goal on his home debut as he whips an effort just wide of the Sunderland post.

It's been a great second half from Burnley.
They have been organised and disciplined and it is important that they really concentrate now when bodies are getting tired.

Aston Villa are 1-0 down and it's at walking pace. They don't know what to do.
Brentford 1-0 Aston Villa
Supermodel Claudia Schiffer is an investor in Brentford and she is in attendance at this match. It looks like she is going to be witnessing a Bees win, too, although it has been a fairly uncomfortable final few minutes viewing for the home supporters.
Bournemouth 1-0 Wolves
And that is that!
It was far from pretty but Bournemouth have three points while it's a second loss from two games for Wolves.

Here comes the corner, it's partially cleared by a Bournemouth head and Hugo Bueno does the rest by hammering it over the top.

Igor Thiago ran out of road. He also made the run a fraction too early.

We're into TEN minutes of stoppage time here after those flashing floodlights earlier caused a lengthy delay.
Bournemouth 1-0 Wolves
A yellow card has been shown to a member of the Wolves coaching staff. Not really sure what it was for but he didn't look too happy.

Arsenal are unbeaten in their last 14 meetings with Leeds in all competitions (W12 D2), winning each of the last six in a row.
Leeds have lost 10 of their last 12 Premier League away games against Arsenal (W2), while they’ve not kept a clean sheet in any of their last 14 at the Gunners.
Arsenal are unbeaten in their last 42 Premier League home games against promoted sides (W37 D5), since a 1-0 loss to Newcastle in November 2010. Avoiding defeat here would see them equal the competition’s longest run without a home defeat against promoted teams – 43 by Chelsea between 2001 and 2015.
Leeds have lost 23 of their last 30 away league matches in London (W4 D3), while in the Premier League they’ve lost their last seven in a row since a 2-1 win at Brentford on the final day of 2021-22.
Arsenal’s winner against Manchester United was via a header from Riccardo Calafiori from a corner, their 31st Premier League corner goal since 2023-24 – 11 more than any other side. Their xG from set plays was more than any other side on MD1 (1.02) but their open play xG was the third lowest (0.28), ahead only of Aston Villa and Everton.
Leeds started their 2025-26 Premier League campaign with victory over Everton on Monday night. The Whites are looking to win their opening two Premier League games in a season for the first time since 2002-03 under Terry Venables.
Daniel Farke has won each of his last two Premier League matches (Brentford 1-2 Norwich in November 2021, Leeds 1-0 Everton on Monday), the first time he’s ever won consecutive games in the competition. Of current managers, only Mikel Arteta and Pep Guardiola are on longer current winning runs (3 each).
Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta has faced Leeds more often without losing than any other side as Gunners boss in all competitions (P8 W7 D1), winning all five at the Emirates against the Whites.
Viktor Gyökeres failed to attempt a single shot on his Premier League debut for Arsenal; the first time since the start of 2023-24 he hasn’t had one in a top-flight league match. He was, however, directly involved in 14 goals in 12 appearances against newly promoted sides in the Portuguese Primeira Liga for Sporting (9 goals, 5 assists).
Against Everton, Lukas Nmecha became just the second player in Leeds United’s history to score a penalty on his debut for the club, along with Percy Whipp in 1922. The three players to score in their first two Premier League appearances for Leeds are Alan Smith in 1998 and Patrick Bamford and Mateusz Klich both in 2020.
