Summary

Rog is back to answer your questions and forecast this week's Premier League action in the Big Weekend Preview. First stop, North London, where Arsenal’s defense is finally showing some cracks and Spurs fans dare to dream this might be the moment they win at the Emirates. Next, Liverpool host Nottingham Forest, with Arne Slot under pressure to finally steady the ship amid mounting injuries against a Forest team desperate to claw out of the relegation zone. Then Newcastle welcome a terrifying Manchester City side, with fans asking if there’s any world they can shock them at St James’ Park. Lastly, Rog looks at Fulham, who host a high-flying Sunderland team riding the momentum of that draw with Arsenal.
