Mark Chapman presents highlights from the Premier League, with West Bromwich Albion hosting Liverpool and league leaders Chelsea travelling to Manchester United. Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp is hoping for all three points as his side push for a place in the top four. Tony Pulis has European ambitions of his own and the Baggies still have a chance of qualifying for next season's Europa League. At Old Trafford, Manchester United seek revenge against a Chelsea side that knocked them out of the FA Cup last month. A win for Jose Mourinho's men would delay Chelsea's charge to the title; victory for Antonio Conte and his players would leave them with one hand on the trophy. There's also a chance to see all the goals and major incidents from Saturday's seven matches.

Episode 31: MOTD2 - 7th May 2017
Mark Chapman introduces highlights of the day's Premier League matches, which includes old foes Arsenal and Manchester United going head to head at the Emirates Stadium. United conceded three goals in the first 20 minutes on their last league visit to the Gunners' home, but should have won the meeting between the two sides at Old Trafford earlier this season. They led 1-0 and had not allowed Arsenal even a shot on goal until Olivier Giroud headed home to level for the visitors in the 89th minute. There was also a late equaliser when Southampton last visited Liverpool, with Sadio Mane levelling the score at 1-1 to earn a point for Saints with less than five minutes of the match remaining. Mane has since left to join Liverpool but a season-ending knee injury means he won't be facing his old club at Anfield today.

Chelsea are many people's favourites for the title, and the Blues were looking for three more points on Sunday afternoon at Burnley, a place where they have won on their only previous two Premier League visits. This time last year, Leicester were five points clear at the top of the table but Claudio Ranieri's side have found defending their title tough going, to the extent that Sunday's trip to Swansea is more pertinent to this season's relegation battle, with both sides desperate for points.
