All three of match week 11's highlight fixtures are sure to be competitive and hard-fought contests.
First, 8th-placed Man U will try and bring 6th-placed Bournemouth crashing back to earth after their high-flying start to the season.
Then, two title challengers go head-to-head when Arsenal and Liverpool do battle, both looking to stay in touch with red hot Man City.
Finally, Wolves will be looking to maintain their spot in the top half of the comp as they host Tottenham.
Bournemouth v Manchester United
EPL Odds: Bournemouth $3.60 / Draw $3.40 / Man U $2
The opening game of the round sees Bournemouth playing host to an underperforming Man U.
The Cherries have been the undoubted surprise packages of the season, picking up six wins from their first ten games and scoring an impressive 19 goals.
This is almost two goals every game from a side who simply can't afford the star names boasted by most other clubs in the league.
Manager Eddie Howe deserves endless credit for what he is doing down on the south coast.
His quick, dynamic style of attacking play really plays into the hands of the pacey players at his disposal in the final third.
Ryan Fraser has been a revelation this season, while Callum Wilson has starred up top with 5 goals and 4 assists.
Not to rain on Bournemouth's parade, punters will need to be wary of the fact that the Cherries have only played one "heavyweight" team this season, where they went down 2-0 to Chelsea.
Therefore, despite coming up against an underperforming Man U, this will be a much tougher task than what they've faced for the most part this season.
Jose Mourinho has somewhat turned the tide for the Red Devils in recent weeks.
The 2-2 draw with Chelsea was backed up by a 2-1 home win against the Toffees.
The player who stood out in both these fixtures was Anthony Martial.
The young Frenchman was reportedly ready to leave Manchester in the transfer window, having failed to establish a regular starting-eleven position.
However, he stuck around, and his performances in the past few weeks have shown critics why he is worth the thirty-six million pounds originally paid for him.
He will be looking to hit the back of the net once again in this fixture.

Man U have lost 3 of their last 4 EPL day matches as an away favourite: Bournemouth to win @ $3.60
EPL Betting Tip: Total Goals over 2.5 @ $1.71
Reasoning: Despite their failings, Man U have scored at least once in their last seven EPL games. They come up against a high-scoring team in what has the potential to become a goal-fest.
Arsenal v Liverpool
EPL Odds: Arsenal $3.60 / Draw $3.60 / Liverpool $1.91
The match of the round sees the rampant Reds journey down to the capital to take on the Gunners.
The great news from a Liverpool point of view is that Mo Salah is scoring again.
Their star man from last season had a slow start to this campaign, before finding the back of the net in each of his past three matches.
Liverpool are unquestionably a title-challenger, but having Mo Salah up and running may prove the difference between actually taking out the EPL title, and falling just short.
The Reds have scored eight goals in their past two fixtures: four at home to Red Star Belgrade in the Champions League, and a repeat dose against Cardiff City in the EPL.
While Arsenal away will pose a much tougher prospect, the Reds will only take confidence from these results heading into this one.
With Salah, Mane and Firmino all impressing in recent performances, whoever lines up in goal for the Gunners will need to be on their toes.
After a stellar run of results that saw Arsenal win eleven on the trot, they were brought back to earth in a 2-2 draw with London rivals Crystal Palace in match week 10.
However, back at the Emirates where they have been tearing it up, Arsenal will be confident in themselves of getting the better of their opposition.
One problem they will have to solve however is Granit Xhaka in the midfield.
Xhaka had a typical rocks and diamonds performance last week, scoring a stunner from a free kick, before giving away a needless penalty that saw Palace equalise late in the match.

Arsenal are winless in their previous 21 matches as an underdog: Liverpool to win or draw @ $1.25
EPL Betting Tip: Match to end in a draw @ $3.60
Reasoning: Plenty of these big six contests have ended in draws this season. It points to the fact that the teams at the top of the table are very evenly matched.
While Liverpool probably have more firepower, Arsenal's home ground advantage points to the draw being the smartest bet.
Wolverhampton Wanderers v Tottenham Hotspur
EPL Odds: Wolves $3.30 / Draw $3.30 / Spurs $2.20
Storm clouds were brewing over Tottenham when they conceded after only six minutes against Man City in match week 10's highlight fixture.
However, since that largely self-inflicted goal, Tottenham have got back on track.
They looked the better of the sides in the second half against the Citizens, then went on to claim a 3-1 victory against local rivals West Ham in the League Cup.
There is healthy competition for spots in the front third, with often maligned Tottenham player Moussa Sissoko having his best performance in a Spurs shirt against Man City.
With both Dele Alli and Christian Eriksen recently returning from injury, and both playing large portions of the League Cup tie, expect Sissoko to start against Wolverhampton.
His strong, direct running may prove a problem against a Wolves side who typically commit both wing-backs forward in attack.
Wolverhampton have been superb since their recent promotion to the top flight.
A pleasing statistic for their fans is that against Top Six opponents, they are so far undefeated, having secured a point against both Manchester teams.
Furthermore, Wolves will be looking to bounce back after a disappointing defeat to Brighton last time out.
Back in front of their home fans, Spurs shouldn't be taking this match-up lightly.
Especially considering the plethora of Portuguese talent Nuno has at his disposal.
However, having failed to score in their last two games, there's a possibility that Wolves are on the slide.
