Gary Lineker returns with highlights and goals from the opening day of the 2011/12 Premier League season in Saturday's Match of the Day.
Liverpool spent heavily during the summer, and their new signings will be eager to impress against Sunderland, particularly Jordan Henderson, who could make his Reds debut against the club he left just two months ago. Fellow midfielder Stewart Downing, who joined from Aston Villa, could also play his first competitive game for Kenny Dalglish's side.
Arsenal take on Newcastle at St James' Park, scene of the Gunners' incredible collapse last season, when they surrendered a four-goal lead to draw 4-4. QPR return to the top flight after a 15-year absence, with Bolton providing the opposition at Loftus Road, while fellow newboys Norwich visit Wigan.
Martin Jol's first Premier League match as Fulham boss is against an Aston Villa side also under new management, with Alex McLeish taking over at Villa Park this summer. Elsewhere, Blackburn host Wolves.

Gary Lineker introduces highlights of Saturday's six Barclays Premier League fixtures.
Arsenal's first home game of the season was against old adversaries Liverpool. Contests between the two sides have been close in recent seasons with five of the last eight matches ending 1-1, including both games last term. Could either team find a winner this time around?
A much-changed Sunderland side faced local rivals Newcastle at the Stadium of Light hoping to improve on a poor home Premier League record against the Magpies. The Black Cats have won only one of eight previous contents.
Swansea's first top flight home game in 28 years was against Wigan, managed by their former boss Roberto Martinez.

Gary Lineker introduces highlights from the Premier League, with analysis and comment from Alan Shearer and Lee Dixon.
The pick of the action includes newly-promoted Norwich's trip to Chelsea, and the West Midlands derby between Aston Villa and Wolves. Chelsea have beaten Norwich 4-0 in their last two encounters at Stamford Bridge, although the Canaries lead their illustrious opponents by four wins to three in Premier League meetings.
Wolves claimed their first win against neighbours Aston Villa for 31 years in March. Matt Jarvis scored the only goal to help keep Mick McCarthy's side in the top flight at the expense of a Birmingham side managed by Alex McLeish, now in charge at Villa.
Other games include Liverpool against Bolton, Swansea at home to Sunderland, QPR's trip to Wigan and Blackburn v Everton.

Gary Lineker introduces highlights from the Premier League. The day's early kick-off sees Everton travel to Eastlands to face
Manchester City. The home side can call upon some incredible attacking talent, with likes of Sergio Aguero, Carlos Tevez, Edin Dzeko, Samir Nasri and David Silva all competing for places in Roberto Mancini's starting line-up. Everton boss David Moyes has to work on a strictly limited budget, but the Toffees are always difficult opponents, as they demonstrated with a 2-1 victory at City last season.
Elsewhere, newly-promoted Swansea head to Stamford Bridge to face Chelsea, while Liverpool host Wolves and Stoke take on Manchester United. West Brom boss Roy Hodgson leads his side out against former club Fulham, while Newcastle meet Blackburn and Wigan host Tottenham.

Gary Lineker introduces highlights from the day's six Premier League fixtures. The 185th Merseyside derby between Liverpool and Everton took place at Anfield, with the visitors looking for their first win at the home of their old adversaries since September 1999. The Toffees' last success at Anfield was a 1-0 win, as Kevin Campbell slotted the winner in a feisty affair that saw three men red carded.
Elsewhere, Manchester United hosted Norwich City, a side they have only dropped two points against from a possible 24 during the Premier League era. West Brom travelled to Sunderland looking for a repeat of their 3-2 comeback victory last April, and Manchester City visited Ewood Park, a happy hunting ground for them in recent seasons with back-to-back wins.

Gary Lineker presents highlights from the Premier League, with Alan Hansen and Alan Shearer offering expert analysis of all the action. Anfield played host to one of the biggest games in the calendar as Liverpool took on Manchester United, with Kenny Dalglish's men looking to repeat their Dirk Kuyt-inspired victory in 2010's corresponding fixture.
Big-spending Manchester City hosted Aston Villa, who had not won a Premier League game at Eastlands since April 2007. Mario Balotelli scored a hat-trick for Roberto Mancini's side in a 4-0 home win in this fixture in 2010. Everton travelled to Chelsea, where David Moyes' side had secured five draws in their last five Premier League visits.
Other games saw promoted clubs Norwich and Swansea in action at Carrow Road, Blackburn away at QPR, Stoke host Fulham, and Wigan and Bolton meet in a north-west derby.

Gary Lineker is joined by Alan Hansen and Alan Shearer for highlights of the day's eight Premier League matches. The standout fixtures are the London derby between Chelsea and Arsenal, and Everton's home game with champions Manchester United. Arsenal ended a five-match losing streak against Chelsea with a 3-1 home victory when the sides last met, in December. However, the Gunners have made their worst start to a season in more than half a century, while Chelsea have made a smooth transition under new manager Andre Villas Boas. The key man in this fixture could be Didier Drogba, who has scored 13 goals in his last 12 appearances against Arsenal. Another forward, Wayne Rooney of Manchester United, is likely to be the focus of attention on his return to previous club Everton. The day's other fixtures include Manchester City v Wolves, West Brom v Liverpool and Sunderland v Aston Villa.

Gary Lineker presents highlights of the day's seven Premier League matches. Champions Manchester United welcome Sunderland to Old Trafford on what is a special weekend for Red Devils boss Sir Alex Ferguson, as the legendary manager celebrates 25 trophy-laden years in charge of the club. United's cross-city rivals Manchester City travel to Queens Park Rangers for the evening kick-off. Robert Mancini's multi-million pound City squad have been scoring for fun this season with Sergio Aguero already looking like one of the buys of the season. Rangers themselves invested heavily at the end of the summer transfer window and one of those signings, Shaun Wright-Phillips, will feel like he has a point to prove against his former side. The day's other fixtures include Newcastle v Everton, Arsenal v West Brom and Blackburn v Chelsea.

Alan Hansen and Alan Shearer join Gary Lineker for highlights of the day's eight Premier League matches. The standout fixtures are Manchester City's home match with Newcastle and Manchester United's trip to Swansea. Rarely has a team scored so many goals at the start of a season as Manchester City have this term. But the title-chasing Blues, inspired by Spanish forward David Silva and Belgian captain Vincent Kompany, look ominous in both defence and attack as they look to win a first Championship since 1968. Resurgent Newcastle are primed to provide a stern test of their credentials. Fired-up Manchester United go to Swansea's Liberty Stadium, still keen to prove they are over a humiliating 6-1 defeat at home to title rivals Manchester City in October. They last played away against the Swans in 1983, when the clubs played out a 0-0 draw at the romantic old Vetch Field ground. The day's other fixtures included Norwich v Arsenal, Wigan v Blackburn, Stoke v QPR, and Everton v Wolves.

Manchester United host Newcastle, whose last victory at Old Trafford was in 1972. Sir Alex Ferguson's men are looking to extend their 10-year unbeaten run against the Magpies, whose last success in this fixture was a 4-3 win in September 2001 when Alan Shearer grabbed the winner.
Chelsea take on Wolves at Stamford Bridge, looking to avenge their defeat the last time the sides met, at Molineux in January.
Arsene Wenger's Arsenal welcome Fulham to the Emirates for a London derby, while Norwich and QPR, who both won automatic promotion to the Premier League last season, meet at Carrow Road.

Mick McCarthy's side stunned the then title-chasing Blues last season with a 1-0 win courtesy of a Jose Bosingwa own goal. Arsenal travel to Craven Cottage for a London derby with Fulham. Craven Cottage is a ground where the Gunners have not had things all their own way in recent years, with only two wins from their last five visits.

Manchester City are aiming to win the title for the first time since the 1967-68 season but face a difficult match at home against Fulham, who have proven to be a bogey side in recent seasons.

There are a host of important matches at the other end of the table as the battle to avoid relegation intensifies. Queens Park Rangers host Wolves at Loftus Road while West Bromwich Albion play Swansea, and Bolton travel to Norwich.

Gary Lineker presents all the goals and highlights from the Barclays Premier League. Fulham make the short hop across west London to face QPR in a derby that sees two teams looking to pull away from the lower reaches of the table. Hoops manager Mark Hughes is no hero with Fulham fans; he lasted less than 11 months as Cottagers boss before swiftly leaving, citing their lack of ambition. Elsewhere, title-chasing Manchester City host relegation-threatened Blackburn, while Chelsea - whose minimum aim for Andre Villas-Boas is a Champions League position - take on Owen Coyle's Bolton Wanderers, another Lancashire club who are desperately trying to avoid the dreaded drop. Other top-flight games include Newcastle v Wolves, West Brom v Sunderland and Wigan v Aston Villa.

Swansea's impressive home record was put to the test by Roberto Mancini's Manchester City, as they continued their bid for the title. Manchester United hosted West Bromwich Albion, who had never beaten Sir Alex Ferguson's men in the Premier League and were without a win at Old Trafford since 1978. Tottenham travelled to Everton looking to complete the double over David Moyes' side, following January's win at White Hart Lane.
Elsewhere, resurgent Sunderland hosted Liverpool, Wolves and Blackburn met in a relegation battle at Molineux, Stoke travelled to Chelsea, Bolton took on QPR, and Aston Villa met Fulham at Villa Park.

Gary Lineker introduces highlights of the midweek Premier League action as the battles at both ends of the table intensify.
Title contenders Manchester City were striving to maintain their 100% winning home record at the expense of Chelsea. City have fared poorly in this fixture, suffering defeat in 10 of the previous 14 Premier League meetings in Manchester, as well as losing 2-1 at Stamford Bridge in December. However, the likes of Sergio Aguero and Mario Balotelli will be looking to take advantage of Chelsea's uncharacteristically poor season, which prompted the sacking of Andre Villas-Boas as manager.
Like Chelsea, north London rivals Tottenham and Arsenal are striving for a top-four finish and Champions League qualification, but they faced obdurate opponents in Stoke and Everton respectively.
Elsewhere, three of the bottom five sides were playing, with QPR hosting a Liverpool side targeting a place in Europe, Bolton visiting Aston Villa and Blackburn taking on Sunderland.

Manchester City head to Stoke, searching for their first away win in the Potteries since Tony Pulis's side returned to the top flight in 2008.
Bolton entertain fellow strugglers Blackburn at the Reebok Stadium in a vital relegation battle. The Trotters have beaten Rovers only once in ten home encounters since Blackburn returned to the top flight in 2001. That victory came in their last home encounter against Rovers in December 2010.
Tottenham travel to Stamford Bridge, seeking a first Premier League win at Chelsea in twenty attempts. Spurs have made 22 unsuccessful league trips across London since Gary Lineker himself was among the scorers in a 2-1 win in February 1990.

Chelsea made the short hop to Fulham for a west London derby which is always keenly contested. The Blues are fighting for a Champions League place, and Fulham have shone at times this season as Martin Jol puts his own unique stamp on the Cottagers. Last time they met, they drew 1-1 at Stamford Bridge.
Elsewhere, David Moyes's Everton hosted Martin O'Neill's Sunderland - a meeting of two of the wiliest managers in the league - while Norwich tried to stop Harry Redknapp's entertaining Tottenham at White Hart Lane. Other matches included Newcastle v Bolton, and Aston Villa v Stoke.

Colin Murray introduces the best of the action and reaction from four crucial Premier League games.
Both title-chasing clubs were in action, with Manchester City hosting West Brom and arch rivals Manchester United making the short trip to Wigan.

The Sky Blues hope the full return of Carlos Tevez will trigger a defining winning streak.
Wigan were desperate to halt the charge of Sir Alex Ferguson's players, as the Latics battle desperately against the drop, while other relegation-threatened teams were in action with Wolves taking on Arsenal and QPR playing host to Swansea. Other highlights include Liverpool's trip to Blackburn.

Gary Lineker presents highlights from the crucial clash between Manchester City and Manchester United at the Etihad Stadium. The bitter cross-city rivals have been battling out at the top of the Premier League all season, and much could rest on this match.
Roberto Mancini's City side produced one of the best results in the club's history when they beat Sir Alex Ferguson's Red Devils 6-1 at Old Trafford earlier in the season. But United are unbeaten in their last three league visits to City, conceding just one goal in those games, and they also beat Mancini's side in the FA Cup third round back in January.

Gary Lineker introduces highlights of the day's Premier League matches, with the majority of the weekend's top-flight games being held to avoid a clash with the FA Cup final.
Newcastle's quest for European qualification sees them host a Manchester City side who inflicted the Magpies' first defeat of the season back in November. Alan Pardew's men have arguably been the Premier League's surprise package this season, with the likes of Papiss Cisse, Demba Ba and Hatem Ben Arfa giving the Tyneside team real cutting edge. Those three may fancy their chances against Roberto Mancini's side, whose form has dipped in the second half of the season.
City have spent the entire campaign battling with title rivals Manchester United, who face Swansea in their final home game of the season. The first Welsh side to play in the Premier League, the Swans have not only comfortably avoided relegation, they have also played with style. Their manager, Brendan Rodgers, is unlikely to abandon his passing principles even though Swans have never won away to United.
