Five things you should know about the EPL

One round of Premier League games has already backed up many pundits' preseason predictions, notably that Chelsea and Manchester City are title favorites and Manchester United needed more than just a change of manager to arrest its slump.

Strengthened by new attacking signings Diego Costa and Cesc Fabregas, Chelsea delivered the best display of the opening weekend in beating Burnley 3-1 away and meets another promoted side, Leicester, in its second match on Saturday.

City was less eye-catching in its 2-0 win at Newcastle but the result served notice that the defending champion won't be giving up its title easily. Next up for City is Liverpool - the team it beat to the championship in May - at home on Monday.
