You can catch all of the Premier League action from Matchweek 11 across NBC, Peacock and USA Network. The weekend kicks off early Saturday with Tottenham Hotspur facing Manchester United at 7:30 a.m. ET, followed by a quartet of fixtures Sunday, beginning at 9:00 a.m. ET.

Mikel Merino started up front for Arsenal in their 3-0 win against Slavia Prague and being no stranger to playing as a makeshift striker, he proved once again that he is a more than reliable stand-in in attack.
