Introduction to Premier League Matchweek 7
A key "Big 6" clash will headline the seventh matchweek of the 2025-26 Premier League season.
The action will begin on Friday when Bournemouth, off to an impressive start despite Andoni Iraola losing several defensive starters from last season, head to London seeking three more points.
Friday’s Match
The Friday match features Bournemouth vs. Fulham, which will be available to watch on TV via USA Network and stream on NBC.com. Bournemouth has had an impressive start to the season, despite losing several defensive starters.
Saturday’s Slate
Saturday’s slate features four games, with Chelsea hosting Liverpool to close out the day. The Blues and Reds are coming off losses to Brighton and Crystal Palace, respectively, last time out. Chelsea have some key injuries to cope with, however, as AM Cole Palmer (groin), CB Levi Colwill (ACL), ST Liam Delap (thigh), CB Tosin Adarabioyo (calf) and CB Trevor Chalobah (red card) are all out. DM Andrey Santos will be a game-time decision.
Title-Race Implications
The result may very well have title-race implications early on, as Chelsea are hoping to avoid a third loss in seven games while Liverpool, despite all their late game-winners, finally dropped points to allow Arsenal to apply pressure and don’t need another slipup too soon.
