• Manchester City have won their last 13 meetings with Burnley by an aggregate score of 46-2

• Crystal  Palace have won just one of their last 16 Premier League meetings with Liverpool

• Chelsea have won nine of their 12 previous home games against Brighton in all competitions

The footballing action continues to come thick and fast this weekend with a full slate of Premier League and EFL fixtures to take in across Friday to Monday.

Intriguing patterns and quirky results often crop up in the top four divisions in England, so here are this weekend's bogey teams to keep an eye on.

Premier League: Reds to maintain perfect start to the season

Liverpool's Premier League title defence has started with five-successive wins and a sixth victory could be coming their way when they face Crystal Palace on Saturday.

The Reds have won nine of their last 10 trips to Selhurst Park, drawing the other contest 0-0, while they last tasted defeat at this stadium in November 2014.

Meanwhile, title contenders Manchester City will be confident of clinching all three points when they welcome Burnley to the Etihad Stadium on the same day.

The Citizens have won 10 in a row at home against the Clarets in all competitions, scoring 40 goals during that period, and they will expect another dominating performance against Scott Parker's side.

Championship: North End to take down Robins

Two teams enjoying positive starts to the Championship season clash in Lancashire on Saturday when Preston take on Bristol City, who lost in the 2024-25 semi-final play-offs.

Both teams have collected 11 points from six matches, but it could be North End who have the upper hand, as they have lost just two of the last 12 matches against the Robins at Deepdale.

Elsewhere, play-off chasing QPR have lost just one of their last six trips to Hillsborough and they will fancy their chances when they head to struggling Sheffield Wednesday.

League One: Dons to make it a miserable trip for Chairboys

Wycombe have made a slow start to their League One campaign, winning just two of their nine matches and they could be in for more trouble when heading to AFC Wimbledon on Saturday.

The Dons are unbeaten in their last eight games against Wanderers at Plough Lane in all competitions, winning three and drawing five.

Johnnie Jackson's side are also on a three-match winning streak heading into this contest.

League Two: No Gresty joy for County

Crewe have been struggling for results in recent weeks, but they may be able to get back to winning ways when they take on Notts County, who are just one point above them in the League Two standings.

The Railwaymen have won the last four meetings against County at Gresty Road, all of those victories coming to nil, while they last lost to the Magpies at home back in 2014.

Meanwhile, struggling Shrewsbury are in need of some positivity and that could come at home to MK Dons, who have lost on their last three trips to the New Meadow.
