The Premier League returns this weekend and with clubs on European duty and having had domestic battles to contend with on top, some teams have been ravaged with injuries.
There is still all to play for with the top-four race intensifying and the relegation fight looking likely to fade out to the end.
This weekend’s fixtures include bottom-of-the-table Norwich taking on Leicester tonight.
On Saturday, top-four hopefuls Chelsea visit Bournemouth with league leaders Liverpool facing Watford at Vicarage Road later in the day.
Son Heung-min has been ruled out for the rest of the season with a fractured arm
Arch-rivals Brighton and Crystal Palace go head-to-head while relegation-threatened teams Newcastle and West Ham host Burnley and Southampton respectively.
On Sunday, Everton welcome Manchester United to Goodison Park while Tottenham take on Wolves.
However, some will miss out on the opportunity to gain a foothold in the league with Arsenal not playing as a result of their planned opponents Manchester City facing Aston Villa in the Carabao Cup final at Wembley.
