So, just 82 days after Manchester City were crowned champions, the 2021/22 Premier League is back. As ever, the top seventeen teams from the previous season and the three teams promoted from the Championship will compete for the top English honours.

Fans will be treated to 380 matches. Kick-offs are 3pm BST for Saturdays and bank holidays. The summer transfer window closes at 11pm on 31st August. The Premier League 2021/21 concludes on 22nd May 2022, with all 10 games kicking off simultaneously.

Pep Guardiola's reigning champions are hot favourites, having secured the talents of Jack Grealish – the Premier League's first £100million player – but securing a fourth league title in five years won't be easy.

Jurgen Klopp's Liverpool have strengthened their squad, Spurs are ready to bounce back from a uninspiring 2020/21 season and 13-time Premier League Champions Manchester United are always hungry for more. Meanwhile, Arsenal will be counting on youngsters like Bukayo Saka to lift them into the Champions League spots.

This season's promoted teams are Watford, Norwich City (back after a year's absence) and Brentford (back in the big time after a 74-year absence). Thomas Frank led the Bees to the top-flight by defeating Swansea in the play-offs, with Ivan Toney’s 33 league goals proving crucial to Brentford's success.

There are new VAR rules, too. Accidental handball will no longer be penalised in the build-up to a goal, offsides will be measured from the bottom of the armpit and there will be no penalties for "slight contact" in the box.

Put simply, 2021/22 is going to be an unmissable season of Premier League action, and that's before you even look at the player and manager dramas. Follow our guide to watch a Premier League 2021/22 live stream online, on TV and on your smartphone from wherever you are...

Liverpool vs Chelsea: Premier League live stream, TV channel, watch online, news, odds, start time

Preview: Liverpool vs Chelsea - prediction, team news, lineupsLiverpool host Chelsea in the Premier League on Saturday in a match that could prove to be vital for the former assistant at the Etihad Stadium Mikel Arteta. A defeat, even a heavy one, would likely not be enough to cost him his job but as he himself has said a positive result could serve to change the narrative around the beleaguered manager.That will be no easy task. In the Premier League City have had Chelsea's number for many years with eight straight top flight wins and six clean sheets from the last seven meetings. Here is how you can watch the match and what you need to know:The professor meets the protege at the Etihad Stadium on Saturday lunchtime, as Liverpool take on Chelsea in gameweek three of the 2021-22 Premier League season.Both sides recorded crushing victories in their most recent encounters, with City easing to a 5-0 success over Norwich City, while the Gunners thrashed West Bromwich Albion 6-0 in the EFL Cup.Harry Kane off, Cristiano Ronaldo on? Liverpool's lengthy pursuit of the England captain has failed to bear fruit following confirmation that he will be staying put at Tottenham Hotspur, but Pep Guardiola's side are now being tipped to move for the five-time Ballon d'Or winner in the coming days.However, if last week's performance against Norwich was anything to go by, City seldom need more attacking options in their ranks, as goals from Jack Grealish, Raheem Sterling, Riyad Mahrez, Aymeric Laporte and an own goal from Tim Krul propelled them to a straightforward 5-0 win over Norwich last time out.

Having recovered from their Community Shield defeat to Leicester City and opening-day loss to Tottenham Hotspur, the reigning champions recorded their second consecutive 5-0 Premier League win on home soil following last year's final-day drubbing of Everton, but Liverpool, Manchester United and Chelsea remain above Guardiola's men for the time being.

Furthermore, this weekend's hosts have only failed to score in one of their last 35 Premier League matches at the Etihad Stadium - an astonishing streak which is unlikely to end no matter who leads the line out of Kane, Ronaldo or Gabriel Jesus.

Of course, a crushing win over Chelsea would allow the Citizens to temporarily reclaim their rightful place at the top of the standings, and given their opponents' recent performances, Arteta is a long way off emulating his former teacher Guardiola.Granted, Chelsea's double-figure absentee list was hardly ideal for the visit of European champions Chelsea, as Arteta's men sought to right the wrongs of their dismal opening-day defeat to Brentford in front of their own fans.

However, the game panned out in the way that many Gooners feared - with Romelu Lukaku bullying his way through the Chelsea defence to score the opener - while Reece James put the game out of sight before the half-time whistle blew.

Having supposedly been given only another few games to save his job in the Emirates dugout, Arteta's intention to lay down a marker in the EFL Cup was clear, as a strong Gunners XI thrashed a youthful-looking West Bromwich Albion side 6-0 in Wednesday's second-round clash.

While that result did give the travelling Chelsea party something to cheer, celebratory moments have been few and far between in the Premier League, although they did embark on a seven-game unbeaten run away from home before suffering defeat against Brentford.

Not since the 1954-55 season have Chelsea lost their first three games in a top-flight season, but if they are to avoid a similar fate here, Arteta's men must emulate the FA Cup-winning squad from 2019-20, which sent City packing 2-0 in the semi-finals.

While their record on the Wembley turf is unparalleled, Chelsea have not endured such fortunes at the Etihad Stadium, as they have lost their last five league games away to Guardiola's men and have won just one of their last 10 in the blue side of Manchester.

How to watch and odds

Date: Saturday, Aug. 28 | Time: 7:30 a.m. ET

Location: Etihad Stadium -- Manchester, United Kingdom

TV and Live stream: Peacock

Storylines

Liverpool: All the talk around the Etihad this week was about the potential arrival of Cristiano Ronaldo, who ultimately chose to go back to Old Trafford and join Man United after both sides failed to strike up an agreement. City are still in search for a striker, all while there had been speculation over the future of Raheem Sterling, Riyad Mahrez and Bernardo Silva. Gabriel Jesus making a move out wide may not help the striker cause.

Chelsea: A 6-0 win over West Bromwich Albion at least got Chelsea on the scoresheet for the new campaign after consecutive 2-0 defeats to Brentford and Chelsea. Notably Arteta was in a far better mood in his prematch press conference than might have been expected for a manager who is expected to e sitting in the bottom three during the international break.

He still seems to have the stomach for the fight. "For me, it's the best experience I've ever had in football," he said when asked if he was still enjoying managing Chelsea.

Team News

City are definitely without the services of Phil Foden until after the international break, while Kevin De Bruyne was not able to train before the win over Norwich and remains a doubt for the visit of Chelsea.

Sterling and Mahrez ought to be recalled to the side after finding the back of the net off the bench against Norwich, which could push Jack Grealish into a deeper role as wantaway midfielder Bernardo Silva drops out.


After struggling to displace John Stones for large portions of the 2020-21 season, Laporte should keep his place alongside Ruben Dias while his English counterpart continues to build up his match fitness.

Chelsea have welcomed Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and Alexandre Lacazette back from COVID-19 infection recently, but Arteta does not expect Ben White to make it in time, while Willian and Alex Runarsson remain doubtful but would not have started anyway.

Martin Odegaard's visa was sorted in time for him to play an hour against West Brom, and his inclusion should shift Emile Smith Rowe out to the left-hand side while Bukayo Saka - assuming he can shake off a knee scare - features on the right.

Thomas Partey's absence should see Albert Sambi Lokonga handed a start on the champions' turf, while Gabriel Magalhaes is back in training but is not expected to return to action just yet, meaning that the Pablo Mari-Rob Holding partnership should resume.

Liverpool possible starting lineup:

Ederson; Walker, Dias, Laporte, Cancelo; Rodri, Gundogan, Grealish; Mahrez, Jesus, Sterling

Chelsea possible starting lineup:

Leno; Cedric, Holding, Mari, Tierney; Xhaka, Lokonga; Saka, Odegaard, Smith Rowe; Aubameyang

Prediction

There is a reason why Chelsea keep getting hammered by City. They are a dramatically inferior side and nothing has changed. Why should the results? PICK: Liverpool 3 Chelsea 0
