Edge of the Box WhoScored

Edge of the Box, in association with UltimateFan UK, returns as Dan Bardell, George Elek and Sam Tighe preview the weekend's Premier League action.
After some brief chat about Brighton, attention turns to the North London Derby. Tottenham are looking to derail Arsenal's title pursuit on home turf. We compare both sets of centre-backs and the importance for their respective sides.
How big a role will the full-backs play at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium? Destiny Udogie is ruled out and Pedro Porro is a doubt for the home side, though in Timo Werner and Brennan Johnson; Ange Postecoglou has wingers able to test the Gunners.
Arsenal have played four games since Spurs last played, too. Will the increase in action hinder the Gunners? Should Mikel Arteta be trusting his squad more? We round off this section with the Combined XI.
The second game in focus is Aston Villa's welcome of Chelsea on Saturday night. Ollie Watkins should be in the running for player of the season... right? The Villa forward is the only player to have registered double figures for both goals and assists in the Premier League this season, after all....
Dan, George and Sam praise Unai Emery, who penned a new deal this week, and turn their attention to the Cole Palmer Te... sorry, Chelsea after their 5-0 loss at Arsenal in midweek. Is there any identity to the Blues!?
All that and more is covered on Edge of the Box this week!

While the panel usually focus on the Premier League, we're on FA Cup duty first of all this week as Manchester City host Chelsea. City were dumped out of the Champions League by Real Madrid in midweek. How will that loss impact Pep Guardiola's side in pursuit of a domestic double?
Cole Palmer's exploits also fall under the microscope. Is he your signing of the season? He moved level with Erling Haaland on 20 league goals last time out, the City striker another whose form is analysed. We round off this section with the combined XI.
Next up is Liverpool's trip to Fulham. The Reds have seen their season come apart at the seams in recent weeks. Will they respond with a result at Craven Cottage? The Whites won't be pushovers, with Marco Silva coming in for some deserved praise following another commendable campaign at the Fulham helm.

Edge of the Box, in association with UltimateFan UK, is back as Dan Bardell, George Elek and Jonathan Wilson preview the weekend's Premier League action.

Can Ten Hag's side derail Liverpool's title bid on Sunday? They've already beaten them at Old Trafford this season...

Unsurprisingly, Manchester City's welcome of Arsenal is the main focus ahead of Sunday's potential title showdown. With Liverpool in action against Brighton earlier on Sunday, neither side can afford a slip up at the Etihad Stadium.
The main topic of discussion is Phil Foden and Bukayo Saka. There has been plenty of talk about the pair this season ahead of the monster meeting at the Etihad Stadium as we compare their respective campaigns.
The panel also discuss Kai Havertz's turn in form, Mateo Kovacic's debut season and how injuries might impact City's chances of securing all three points with a combined XI to round off this section.
Aston Villa vs Wolves is the other game in focus this week as Dan, George and Sam talk over Villa's midfield issues and how they'll fare against Mario Lemina and Joao Gomes, John McGinn's suspension and Pedro Neto's absence due to injury.
All that and more is discussed on Edge of the Box this week.

Edge of the Box, in association with UltimateFan, returns this week as Dan Bardell, George Elek and Jonathan Wilson preview the weekend's FA Cup and Premier League action.
First up is Liverpool's trip to Manchester United. The Reds geared up for Sunday's quarter-final tie with a rampant midweek win over Sparta Prague as the trio take a look at the impact of Mohamed Salah's return from injury, Alexis Mac Allister's form in the Liverpool midfield and the performances of youngster Jarell Quansah.
We also get their thoughts on Erik ten Hag amidst rumours he'll be relieved of his duties at the end of the season. Would defeat on Sunday spell the end for the Dutchman? We round off this section with the combined XI.
We then turn attention to the Premier League as Tottenham look to build upon last week's resounding win at Aston Villa when they travel to Fulham on Saturday evening. Spurs are likely to be without Micky van de Ven but they now have Radu Dragusin to deputise if needs must. After a solid cameo at Villa Park, the January arrival is in line for his full debut.
Dan, George and Jonathan also discuss Rodrigo Muniz’s emergence at Craven Cottage and what it means for Armando Broja, who joined on loan from Chelsea at the turn of the year.
