The Premier League is preparing for its third pause of 2025–26, but there’s another cracking gameweek in store off the back of a successful midweek for the top-flight clubs in Europe.

Traditional "Big 6" clubs have work to do, beginning with a clash between Tottenham and Chelsea in north London on Saturday. Tottenham is third on the table despite some shaky play, while the Blues are ninth -- despite being three points behind the Hotspurs. Chelsea is battling with injuries but cannot afford a loss.

Matchweek 11 will feature two "Big 6" clashes -- and won't waste any time getting to them. The first game of the week will see Tottenham host Manchester United on Saturday as both clubs are back in the European competition conversation following historic lows in 2024-25.

USMNT coach Mauricio Pochettino explained what he meant when he recently discussed that he is "missing" the Premier League.

LEEDS, England (AP) — Nuno Espirito Santo became the first West Ham coach since 2018 to go winless in his first four games as his struggling team showed the same defensive frailties that have plagued it all season in a 2-1 loss to Leeds in the Premier League on Friday.

United States Men's National Soccer Team head coach Mauricio Pochettino suggested Thursday that he would like to return to coaching in the English Premier League once his time with the USMNT is over.

Mauricio Pochettino was appointed as the new head coach of the USMNT in September 2024. Since then, he has managed 20 matches across all competitions and friendlies, recording 11 wins, two draws, and seven defeats, including a loss to Mexico in the 2025 Gold Cup final.

MANCHESTER, England (AP) — Arsenal extended its lead at the top of the Premier League to seven points on Saturday after a 2-0 win against Burnley. Manchester United missed the chance to provisionally move up to second, but maintained its recent unbeaten run by scoring late to salvage a 2-2 draw at Nottingham Forest.
