Arsenal vs. Tottenham Hotspur

Both of these teams come into this fixture on the back of European commitments and big wins in the Premier League last weekend.

Spurs' 3-1 triumph over Chelsea was arguably their best performance of the campaign. They were excellent against their local rivals, with the attacking play of Dele Alli, Christian Eriksen and Heung-Min Son in support of Harry Kane giving the Blues back line so much trouble.

Alasdair Gold of Football.London was full of praise for Tottenham's performance:

While Spurs will be confident heading to the Emirates Stadium, they are coming up against a team that have been in fine form themselves.

Although there were some ropey moments in the 2-1 win over Bournemouth, the Gunners are proving tough to beat under manager Unai Emery: 

Arsenal did make a long trip to Ukraine on Thursday, and while tiredness may play some part, Emery is expected to make a lot of changes to his XI. As such, we should see two even sides go head-to-head in what is likely to be a close encounter.

Liverpool vs. Everton

After their massive clash with Paris Saint-Germain in the UEFA Champions League on Wednesday, the fixtures don't get any less intense for the Reds, as an in-form Everton come to Anfield on Sunday.

It's a testament to Liverpool that they are still within touching distance of Manchester City at the top of the Premier League table, as the Citizens are setting a breakneck speed at the front of the pack.

The Reds start the weekend just two points back on the Manchester outfit having won 3-0 at Watford last weekend.

Football journalist Melissa Reddy summed up just how good Liverpool have been in the Premier League this season:

They are up against an Everton team that go into this round of fixtures in the top six, as they continued their impressive recent progress under Marco Silva with a win against Cardiff City last weekend.

The Toffees have a man in brilliant form in Gylfi Sigurdsson, per journalist Paul Brown:

While Everton will be confident in their ability, they will go up against a fearsome team. In addition, they have a rotten record at Anfield, with their last win coming at their one-time home ground in 1999.

Liverpool may be a little jaded following their exploits in Paris on Wednesday, but they have the quality in the final third to edge what should be an entertaining contest.
