season will begin on August 8th as teams are set to battle for league
positions in the self proclaimed ‘best league in the world’.

to catch the eye will be Manchester United vs. Tottenham Hotpur and
Liverpool vs. Stoke City.

doesn’t look big but when you consider Liverpool lost to stoke 6-1 on
the final day of last season then you see the importance of the match.
