Theguardian previews ten Premier League storylines this weekend, including a gloves-off relegation fight at Leeds where Daniel Farke is understood to have wanted a new goalkeeper in January but the board did not oblige. The report notes the dilemma over whether Farke will recall Lucas Perri or keep faith with Karl Darlow against Nottingham Forest, and that Illan Meslier has been demoted to third choice and was discussing a potential move to Besiktas after Leeds rejected a bid for Perri.

Manchester United are unbeaten in three under Michael Carrick while Tottenham are unbeaten in four under Thomas Frank, setting up a stern test at Old Trafford, and Arsenal will again rely on their home fans after the energy that helped see off Chelsea and book a Carabao Cup final place; Sunderland remain the only Premier League side still unbeaten at home this season.

Aston Villa, just a point behind Manchester City, seek an attacking boost after recent setbacks and used the transfer window to bring in two attackers as Ollie Watkins is a doubt.
