I'm still a bit curious why Manchester United - Aston Villa is being played on Friday. I can't recall a EPL match being played on Friday but I like the idea. I'm looking forward to the Tottenham - Stoke game on Saturday, Stoke got the double over the Spurs last year so that makes that game interesting. The other game I will keep my eye on is Crystal Palace - Arsenal. Palace was very impressive with their 3-1 win over Norwich City. On the other hand, Arsenal laid an egg last week against West Ham, which makes this game even more special as it's hard to win at Selhurst Park.
