It has been a tough 2019 for Fulham, with their four straight defeats this month including an FA Cup exit to Oldham and a painful late loss against Tottenham last time out.

Claudio Ranieri's comments about the Cottagers "continuing to fight" after the Spurs game were then taken a little too literally by Aboubakar Kamara.

Brighton may be well clear of danger but they've fared no better than Fulham over the past eight league games - although their last two league fixtures were narrow defeats to Liverpool and Manchester United.

The Seagulls' away form certainly offers a bit of cheer for Fulham though, going into what feels like a must-win game for them.

Everton

Everton manager Marco Silva: "We played three days ago, it was a tough game and we have some injuries also.

"It's always a good opportunity for us, every game we play. We can change things again for us.

"It is a new coach for them, they haven't played yet so it is difficult for us to surprise them, it is possible they can surprise us."

Zred: Arsenal starting with 3 holding midfielders at home to Cardiff?!

Andrew: For me, Pochettinho in one comment has talked himself out of contention for the Manchester United job with a defeatist, mis-informed and out-of-touch comment for any manager of a top-level football club. He has completely missed the point of what he is there to do.

There will be plenty of tributes to Emiliano Sala from Cardiff fans at the Emirates.

A banner will be displayed in the away stand and it's believed there have been yellow signs placed on seats which will be held up to create an image.

Players will also wear yellow daffodil armbands during the game.

Throughout the week, supporters, friends and family members of Sala have placed tributes at the Cardiff City Stadium.

Everyone from Burnley down are in action this evening. Fulham, Newcastle and Huddersfield are at home.

Any points collected could be massive...

Manchester United were 11 points adrift of the top four when Jose Mourinho was sacked a week before Christmas.

But a victory against Burnley will take a resurgent United level on points with fourth-placed Chelsea, albeit maybe for only 24 hours.

Regardless what occurs in this next round of matches, Champions League qualification through the league is now a distinct possibility under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.

Burnley have drawn on their past two visits to Old Trafford, and last season were so close to a famous win until Jesse Lingard equalised in the 91st minute to make it 2-2.

A point apart in the table and with almost identical records, there are some striking similarities between Wolves and West Ham.

Both have recorded impressive victories against the big six - Wolves against Tottenham and Chelsea, the Hammers against Arsenal and Manchester United.

But the fact that they are only in mid-table points to their inconsistency.

Both sides come into this game having accumulated just seven points from their past six matches and, in truth, trying to predict the outcome of this particular tussle is nigh on impossible!

Arsenal

Arsenal head coach Unai Emery: "Our focus now is very clear: the Premier League. We're also going to play the Europa League with big motivation. It's one way to the Champions League.

"We need to be concentrated for the three points like we were against Chelsea."

Deadline day is looming. You can keep up to date on all the latest transfer news across the BBC Sport website on Thursday.

Fans are in for a rough night at Craven Cottage. It's absolutely chucking it down. The players are out warming up. Glenn Murray has got some pretty thick gloves on!

A win on the road for Manchester City tonight would see them move to within a point of leaders Liverpool - who play Leicester on Wednesday night.

Rafael Benitez has lost only one of his nine Premier League home matches as a manager against Manchester City (W4, D4), with that defeat coming last season.

The 24-year-old is travelling to Tyneside to undergo a medical and finalise personal terms.

Almiron is expected to cost Newcastle about £20m breaking the previous record fee of £16m paid to Real Madrid for striker Michael Owen in 2005.

Burnley are unchanged from their last Premier League game.

Alexis Sanchez and Jesse Lingard drop to the bench for Manchester United, while Andreas Pereira and Romelu Lukaku get a start.

Full team news to come.

Manchester City make five changes from their FA Cup-thumping side - in come Sergio Aguero, David Silva, Leroy Sane, Raheem Sterling and Aymeric Laporte.

Match of the Day commentator at St James' Park

Pep Guardiola takes charge of his 100th Premier League game, having seen his Manchester City side score 29 goals in all competitions since they last conceded.

Rafael Benitez, meanwhile, still cuts a frustrated figure as he is yet to welcome a new face to boost a Newcastle team who have lost eight league games at home already.

The reigning champions have the extra incentive of being able to reduce the gap to one point at the top of the table before Liverpool face Leicester on Wednesday, as the psychological part of the season hots up.

The hosts will have to defy history as well as form to secure anything at St James' Park - Newcastle have taken only three points from the last 66 on offer against City.
