Manchester City will look to solidify their grip on the top spot in the 2015-16 English Premier League standings, while defending champions Chelsea will try to keep in step with the current leaders.

Manchester City vs. Watford

Manchester City will collide with Watford on Saturday at Etihad Stadium, where they will go for their fourth victory in as many games this season.

Manchester City, who finished second to Chelsea in the title race last season, are alone on top of the standings after winning against West Bromwich Albion, Chelsea and Everton in their first three matches.

On the other hand, Watford currently have three points on the table after their first three matches all ended in draw. They will be a heavy underdog on Saturday, but coach Quique Sanchez Flores believes anything is possible as long as they will compete with the current leaders.

Chelsea vs. Crystal Palace

Meanwhile, Chelsea will try to inch closer to Manchester City, when they host Crystal Palace on Saturday at Stamford Bridge in England.

Chelsea had a slow start this season. They settled for a 2-2 draw during their season opener, which was followed by a humiliating 3-0 loss to Manchester City. The Blues finally nailed a victory last week, edging West Bromwich 3-2.

However, the Blues will go up against a squad who are also playing well early this season. Crystal Palace took a 1-3 loss to Norwich during their first game, but bounced back with 2-1 victories against Arsenal and Aston Villa.

As a result, Crystal Palace are currently fifth in the standings with six points -- just behind leaders Manchester City and second-placed teams Leicester City, Liverpool and Manchester United.
