Brentford made the fewest number of changes with just two alterations for their team which faced Arsenal.

Burnley changed all eleven of their starting personnel while Luton, Wolves, West Ham, Newcastle and Liverpool made ten amendments.

A congested fixture list will have been a prime factor in the sweeping changes with almost 100 Premier League players currently listed as injured just a month into the new season.

But the temptation to make changes wasn't just restricted to Premier League clubs with Championship leaders Leicester also making ten switches for their trip to Liverpool.
