Happy 2016, folks! Pray to Fowler that for Liverpool Football Club it's better than 2015. Depending on the result of the West Ham game, it's either looking bright or just the worst so far.
What do we have to look forward to now for the rest of the day? Well, some pretty, potentially important matches. At 3:00PM BST/10:00AM EST, there's six matches to choose between. Arsenal host Newcastle at the Emirates, where the Gunners will want a win in order to stay on top. Leicester City take on AFC Bournemouth, and the home team will be looking to get back to winning form after a loss and a draw. Elsewhere, Manchester United hosts Swansea City, Southampton visit Norwich City, Sunderland welcome Aston Villa, and Stoke City travel to West Brom. The late game sees Watford visit Manchester City at 5:30PM BST/12:30PM EST.
Depending on the result of the West Ham game, Liverpool may be able to capitalize on slip-ups made by the teams above them.
