PL Matchday 7 - The Title Race & Rivalries
Loading player...
Manchester City were able to block out the noise and remain at the top of the English Premier League with a crucial win over Liverpool last week. With just three points separating fourth from twelfth place, there are plenty of crucial fixtures shaping the top half of the table for Matchday 7.
Brentford will be looking to keep their place in the top four when they host Liverpool this weekend, though it has been a difficult start to life under Andoni Iraola with the Reds winning just two of their first six games. In contrast, Brentford have shown excellent balance, ranking as the fourth highest-scoring team in the Premier League with twelve goals while conceding the second-fewest with six.
Meanwhile, one of English football's great rivalries adds another chapter as Leeds and Manchester United face off at Elland Road. The 2026/27 season has told two very different tales for the clubs, with Leeds exceeding expectations to sit in seventh place, while Manchester United languish in thirteenth with just one win from their first six matches.
Elsewhere, the defending champions will look to stay within touching distance of the top spot when they travel to the City Ground to play Nottingham Forest. All that and more in this week's episode of Hit the Target, powered by Hollywoodbets!
