    Huddersfield v Southampton (15:00 BST)

    Huddersfield, one of the eight teams getting ready to kick off soon, probably would have been the first name on many people's minds.

    But, while newly-promoted Brighton and Newcastle have struggled to adapt to Premier League life, the Terriers have taken to the top-flight like, er, dogs to water.

    David Wagner's side embarrassed Palace on the opening weekend, then edged past Newcastle last Sunday.

    Which means that a point against Southampton will put them on top of the Premier League...

    I don't want to put you all off but... not only have Palace and Swansea got just one point between them so far this season, they have not even managed a league goal.

    So this is going to be 0-0. Or 5-4.

    Newcastle v West Ham (15:00 BST)

    Quite interesting this. The Premier League made a new ruling over the summer which means clubs have to allocate some pitchside seating for away supporters.

    But Newcastle, whose away end is known from being up in the clouds (and up an exhausting set of stairs) successfully argued to keep their designated away section on safety grounds.

    Good news for the binocular seller stood outside the away end. He's still in business.

    Binoculars will be standard issue among the West Ham fans at Newcastle United this afternoon. It's a great day for football on Tyneside but both sides need a win.

    To be honest I don't think there would be any pointless answers in our completely made-up quiz. (We didn't really ask 100 people, just in case you naively thought we actually did).

    I reckon at least one person - and probably more - would have guessed Bournemouth, Brighton, Crystal Palace, Newcastle or West Ham are still stuck on nul points.

    Although Bournemouth, who are currently playing Manchester City in the lunchtime kick-off, might be a decent bet to get off the mark...

    Pointless

    Our first category is the English Premier League. Let's find out what the question is. Here it comes...

    We gave 100 people 100 seconds to name which Premier League sides are still POINTLESS after the opening two matches of the 2017-18 season.

    Best of luck.
