After a rollercoaster opening weekend, the Premier League is back for match-week two - and you can keep across the action all weekend on the BBC.

Crystal Palace and Manchester City will kick off this round of fixtures as last season's runners-up travel to Selhurst Park on Friday evening.

The rest of the week two matches will be spread across Saturday and Sunday followed by Aston Villa hosting defending champions Arsenal on Monday night.

Throughout the 2026-27 season, you can watch highlights from every game on Match of the Day, get live updates in our text commentaries on the BBC Sport website and app and keep across all the goals as they go in on Final Score.

You can get live score updates on your phone lock screen simply by following your favourite teams.
