English Premier League action continues today with a host of interesting matches lined up. It's only week two in the 2011-12 season, and the league's still wide open, making it rather exciting to watch. 

Today's games feature some interesting early season matchups, including the Liverpool-Bolton clash at Anfield. Going by recent history, this one would seem like a foregone conclusion, seeing as how Liverpool has held the Wanderers at bay in the recent past. Second-year manager Wanderers Owen Coyle will be looking to better his record against the Reds after effecting a massive shake-up in the club's squad during the off-season. 

His opponents, Liverpool, will be confident as ever after their 2-0 rout of Arsenal last week at the Emirates Stadium. Expect them to unleash the likes of Luis Suarez on the inexperienced Bolton defense leading to a comfortable win for the Scousers. 

Meanwhile, powerhouses Chelsea will be looking to hand Norwich City its first loss of the season. The Blues have had a slow start after tying with Stoke City and barely getting past minnows West Bromwich Albion last week. They'll be looking to fire all their big guns and announce their contender status with a convincing win.
