Brighton & Hove Albion are currently facing Manchester City as the new Premier League campaign gains momentum, with reigning champions Liverpool looking to fend off competition from Arsenal and Manchester City in the title race. The battle for Champions League qualification is also intense this season, especially with the possibility of a fifth Premier League club securing a place[1].

The 2025/26 Premier League season’s fixtures have been released, with Liverpool opening against AFC Bournemouth on August 15 and big early clashes such as Manchester United vs. Arsenal scheduled for August 17[3].

The summer transfer window for 2025 has been one of the most active on record. Major deals include Arsenal signing Kepa Arrizabalaga and Martin Zubimendi, and releasing or transferring out several high-profile players like Jorginho and Raheem Sterling. Other significant moves across the league feature new arrivals such as Gabriel Gudmundsson at Leeds United (£10m), Reinildo Mandava at Sunderland (free), Thierno Barry at Everton (£27m), and Anthony Elanga moving from Nottingham Forest to Newcastle United for £55m[2][4][8].

Transfer news remains highly active as the deadline approaches. Arsenal have agreed personal terms with Bayer Leverkusen’s Piero Hincapie, eyeing a loan deal with obligation to buy. Liverpool have made a £35 million bid for Crystal Palace defender Marc Guehi, though Palace are reluctant to lose their captain before finding a replacement[6].

On the pitch, dramatic matches continue to define the early season. Manchester United and Burnley recently faced off in a thrilling encounter at Old Trafford, highlighted in Premier League Matchweek 3 coverage[5]. Injury concerns are already impacting squads, with Arsenal’s Bukayo Saka sidelined and Martinelli stepping in while Odegaard remains on the bench[7].
