After the joy of European football returning to our screens this week, it’s time to turn our attention back to the Premier League ahead of the weekend.

It was largely a successful first week on the continent for Premier League sides, with Leicester, Man City and Southampton all opening their European campaigns with comfortable wins, scoring ten goals between them without a goal conceded.

Arsenal meanwhile were lucky to come away from Paris with a point as they held firm in a 1-1 draw with PSG, whilst their London rivals Tottenham, who played their first ‘home’ game at Wembley Stadium against Monaco could not live up to the record-breaking occasion, losing 2-1.

Mourinho’s Man United, who are reluctantly playing their continental football in the Europa League this season, suffered a humbling 1-0 defeat in Rotterdam against Eredivisie side, Feyenoord.

The midweek results, however, mean little going into the domestic fixtures this weekend, which begin with Chelsea v Liverpool at Stamford Bridge on Friday night.

With that in mind, here are TEN things you need to keep your eye out for in gameweek five…

Sideshow Bob back at the Bridge

He’s back, the Premier League’s favourite Brazilian is set for his second Chelsea debut as the Blues host Liverpool on Friday night. Luiz is always an entertaining watch for any fan. If he is your player he can provide some quite spectacular moments as he charges through the midfield, runs which can also entertain neutrals when they go horribly wrong.

The former PSG man will have a lot on his plate on Friday night, as he is charged with handling Coutinho, Lallana and Co. which should provide for an interesting return to Premier League football.

Rampant Rooney in North London

As captain for club and country, it was a bit of a surprise when Mourinho elected to leave his No.10 at home in the week, something that Rooney may have been glad of given the result.

Having been rested midweek, the former Everton man will be fresh and raring to go, ready to prove that should be one of the first names on Jose’s team sheets going forward, expect an inspirational show from the United talisman.

Big day for Wilshere

After his loan move to Bournemouth on Deadline Day, the England midfielder needs to impress in the big games for the Cherries this season, and they don’t come much bigger than the visit of Pep Guardiola’s Man City.

The 24-year-old is yet to make his full debut for Eddie Howe’s side, having made his maiden appearance off the bench against West Brom last weekend.

Kick-start for the Saints

Claude Puel tasted victory for the first time as Southampton manager when they walked past Sparta Prague at St. Mary’ on Thursday night. With games coming thick and fast for the South Coast side now, they could well be in for a big run of form, having only picked up two points from their first four games in the Premier League so far.

They host Swansea on Sunday afternoon, as side they have a superb record against, having lost just once in their last eight top flight meetings, could be one to consider if you fancy a flutter this weekend.

Spurs to send Sunderland packing

Pochettino’s side may have suffered defeat to the Ligue 1 leaders in their Champions League opener on Tuesday, but don’t expect that to effect what we see from the North London side on Sunday.

Last season’s title challengers are back in familiar settings this weekend as they host a struggling Sunderland side at White Hart Lane. With Harry Kane finally opening his account for the season at Stoke last weekend, this could be an embarrassing afternoon for David Moyes and the Black Cats, expect goals.

Weekend away on the South Coast for Guardiola

Pep Guardiola has enjoyed the dream start to life in the Premier League, five wins from five, capped with a win over local and old foes in Man United and Jose Mourinho, leaves them top of the table.

They travel to South Coast side Bournemouth this weekend who are yet to really hit their stride in the league, this could be another high scoring game.

Lukaku firing on all cylinders

The Belgian striker has scored five goals in his last two games for club and country, with a hat-trick at the Stadium of Light to open his Premier League account for the season on Monday.

It looks as if the Toffees have their main man back after a lengthy drought, and he could be in for yet more goals on Saturday when Middlesbrough are the visitors at Goodison Park

West Ham at breaking point

Slaven Bilic has endured a tough start to the season on and off the pitch with the Hammers facing more than just a few teething problems in their new home.

All the distractions around the football haven’t helped, as the Croat watched his side let a 2-0 lead pass them by last weekend, losing 4-2 to London rivals Watford. A win at The Hawthorns this weekend is crucial, however, an early goal for Pulis’ side could see the boys from East London implode.

The Foxes bite is back

The champions have had a rocky opening few weeks of their title defence, with the departure of N’Golo Kante having made more of an impact that Ranieri probably anticipated.

However, with a historic Champions League win in the week The Foxes are riding on the crest of a wave and should make easy work of promoted Burnley this weekend.

Hull City set to stun

Arsenal are starting to find their rhythm as we get further into the season, with a good point earned in Europe on Tuesday, off the back of their controversial last minute winner against Southampton last weekend, they are in good form.

However, Hull have enjoyed a superb start to the season, with seven points from their first four games, they present quite the banana skin for Arsene Wenger and his side.
