The Premier League returns this weekend after an international break, with clubs eager to integrate their new signings into competitive action. The headline transfer is Alexander Isak, who joined Liverpool for a British record fee of £125 million.

In Italy, Inter Milan face a stern test in Turin as they travel to take on Juventus in the Derby d’Italia.
