After an electric opening weekend that began with Hull City's shock result over Man United, and ended with last minute penalty drama at St James Park, the Premier League is back again already.
Kicking off on Friday night, Enzo Maresca's Man City will be looking to build on their lucky escape versus Bournemouth as they travel to face Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park.
Next up on Saturday, Andoni Iraola's Liverpool host a lunchtime clash against Nottingham Forest, before Bournemouth face Everton and newly promoted pair Hull and Coventry face off.
Later on Saturday is the weekend's most eye catching fixture as Newcastle United clash with Spurs, a match that will see Sando Tonali play against his former side, weeks on from a £100 million transfer.
Then on Sunday, Chelsea and Man United return to action, while fans of last season's champions Arsenal will have to wait until Monday for their clash with Aston Villa.
We'll be there throughout it all, reporting on the biggest moments, all of which you can follow below in our liveblog.
