The Premier League returns this weekend after the international break with some tasty matchups, check out our predictions here!

We have city derbies, a possible relegation six-pointer, and a coach returning to his old stomping grounds in another compelling Premier League weekend. Let’s take a look at some of the juicy matchups we have on the docket in matchday four of the most competitive league in the world.

Manchester United vs. Manchester City, Saturday 7:30 EST

This derby has failed to impress in recent years save for the storyline of young Marcus Rashford making his debut in the rivalry by skinning Martin Demichelis alive. This time around the managers are more of a story than the players themselves with Pep Guardiola and Jose Mourinho renewing their rivalry in a new country and a new league.

Sergio Aguero will miss the match through suspension and for that reason alone United will have the edge and will win a close one. Mourinho gets one over on his old friend Pep and United stay perfect.

Prediction: 2-1 Manchester United

Next: Liverpool-Leicester
