? Premier League: Six hot stats to prep you for Saturday

Six significant matches in the top-flight on one day certainly constitutes a Super Saturday.

Here are six hot stats to look out for starting at St James’ Park, the home of in-form Newcastle, who host title-chasers Liverpool.

? Newcastle vs Liverpool

The Magpies have gone ten Premier League H2Hs without a win against Liverpool (D4, L6), although they did at least find the net in seven of those matches. Only one of the 53 Premier League meetings between these sides down the years ended 0-0. 

? Aston Villa vs Norwich

Norwich has shipped a league-high 69 goals this term and they’re now almost certain to become the first side to concede 70+ goals in three different EPL campaigns. There have been ten goals scored in the opening 30 minutes in Villa’s last nine home matches in the top flight.

? Southampton vs Crystal Palace

Crystal Palace has never kept a clean sheet away from home in the Premier League against Southampton (W1, D3, L8). 

? Watford vs Burnley

Watford knows that failure to keep a clean sheet here would stretch their run of conceding to 22 successive top-flight home games, a feat that no side has managed since QPR back in August 1973. 

? Wolves vs Brighton

Brighton boss Graham Potter has never beaten Wolves as a manager (D3, L2).

? Leeds vs Man City

No team in Europe’s top-five leagues has scored more goals in the opening 15 minutes than City’s 16. They’ll be hoping to lean on the in-form Gabriel Jesus, as they’ve never lost a Premier League game when he’s gotten on the scoresheet (W43, D3).

Enjoy the action! It all kicks of in England’s Northeast when Liverpool hope to leapfrog Man City, for a few hours at least, when they target three points against Eddie Howe’s flying Magpies.
