    'Newcastle have had a brilliant exceptional season!'


    Some mouthwatering fixtures sit ahead of us this weekend in the Premier League, and you can see them all on Optus Sport! Mark Schwarzer is joined by Phil Kitromilides and Julien Laurens to preview a few picks of the matches:


    • Manchester City and Crystal Palace meet at the Etihad, with a stagnating City and rising Palace promising one of the most open contests in the history of these two clubs!
    • The lads try and decide whether brilliant or exceptional is the better adjective, as Newcastle host Manchester United!
    • If you had Alexander Isak and Rasmus Hojlund on offer for your club, which would you take?
    • Bournemouth and Fulham meet at Vitality Stadium in a match which could mean a European run for one side.
