The Italian has replaced Xisco Munoz in the Hornets hotseat and has been tasked with getting them away from danger after a poor start to the campaign.

Watford lost at Leeds last time out and while Ranieri has a good record against Liverpool, he’s new side face a tough task this Saturday.

Jurgen Klopp’s Reds are the only top-flight team still unbeaten this season and will be eager to return to winning ways following successive draws against Brentford and Manchester City.

Southampton v Leeds

Coverage starts from 2:30pm on talkSPORT 2 (kick-off 3pm)

Our 3pm offering this weekend will see a battle towards the bottom of the table as Southampton welcome Leeds to the south coast.

Southampton are yet to win this season and were well beaten by Chelsea before the international break.

Leeds, meanwhile, got their first victory of the campaign against Watford earlier this month.

But sides need to find some consistent form and start moving away from the danger zone.

Brentford v Chelsea

Coverage starts from 5:15pm on talkSPORT (kick-off 5:30pm)

Our GameDay special will conclude at the Brentford Community Stadium this weekend as west London rivals Brentford and Chelsea face off.

The two sides are only five miles apart but are polar opposites in pretty much every other way.

Their club philosophies and transfer strategies differ greatly and it will make for an intriguing tie this Saturday evening.

Chelsea head into this weekend top of the table after a stellar season so far.

Brentford, who beat West Ham last time out, have also impressed and will move to within a point of the Blues with a victory.
