Chelsea served notice of their Premier League title intentions with a confident 3-0 defeat over Crystal Palace as the Premier League enjoyed a return to its familiar format on Saturday. Manchester United got things going in the early kickoff with a 5-1 hammering of Leeds United with Bruno Fernandes netting a hat-trick and Paul Pogba making four assists. After last season's staggered kickoffs and empty stadiums because of the COVID-19 pandemic, Stamford Bridge, like Old Trafford earlier, was packed full for one of five 3pm kickoffs.
