The 35th edition of the English Premier League is in full swing. This year’s season started on August 22, slightly delayed than usual due to the recovery factor for players because of the FIFA World Cup 2026.
The season has already witnessed some exciting matches. One headline came from Manchester United vs Manchester City's clash, where the later secured a 0-1 victory to claim all three crucial points. With the summer transfer window now closed, all 20 clubs are locked in for the season ahead.
