We've got another cracking day of football lined up for you this afternoon as Premier League action continues.
Brentford, who currently sit 11th travel to 12th place Crystal Palace for the 2pm kick-off in a mid-table match-up, while Tottenham Hotspur face off against Leicester City at the same time.
Ruud van Nistelrooy's Foxes are in trouble as they sit 19th in the table having lost seven league games on the bounce but have hope against a Spurs side plagued with injuries.
There are doubts over whether Djed Spence, Yves Bissouma and Pape Sarr will be available for this clash while Dominic Solanke, Cristian Romero and Brennan Johnson remain sidelined.
At 4.30pm Aston Villa host West Ham. The Villans are looking to bounce back from their midweek loss to Monaco in the Champions League while Graham Potter's Hammers have had a free week to try and work on what went wrong against Crystal Palace last time out.
A little later we have Fulham vs Manchester United at 7pm. Amorim's side who currently sit in 13th enjoyed success in the Europa League on Thursday as they beat Rangers 2-1 in a tense clash.
However, Matthijs de Ligt was replaced by Harry Maguire at half-time with Amorim confirming he picked up an injury in his post-match press conference.
Ten minutes later Leny Yoro followed him to the subs bench with the 39-year-old boss saying he's taking no risks with the pair.
Though Alejandro Garnacho has been heavily linked with a move away from the club this transfer window, he has travelled to London with the squad. His fellow academy graduate, Marcus Rashford, who remains out of favour at Old Trafford is once again unlikely to feature.
Meanwhile, Marco Silva confirmed that Reiss Nelson is in the final stages of his recovery but Kenny Tete is still unavailable for Fulham.
