What to Watch

Hull City in the Champions League places after four games is the story of the early season, though promoted sides historically fade. The Manchester derby on Sunday is the weekend’s marquee fixture and can knock City off top spot if United take anything from it. Arsenal travel to Sunderland on Saturday evening with a chance to hold their perfect record.

At the bottom, Coventry are the only club still on zero and face Brighton at home Sunday. Tottenham with one point from three and Fulham with one from four are both in unfamiliar territory.

How the Table Works

Three points for a win, one for a draw. The top five qualify for the Champions League league phase under the current allocation, sixth goes to the Europa League, and the bottom three are relegated to the Championship. Level teams are separated by goal difference, then goals scored, then head to head.
