Man City 0-0 Everton
Pat Nevin
Former Chelsea winger on BBC Radio 5 Live at Etihad Stadium
At this moment in time Everton would probably be the happier team even though the best of the chances have fallen to Man City. The game plan has worked.
Brighton 1-0 Newcastle
We're into five minutes of added time at the end of the first half as Brighton win their sixth corner of the game.
Burnley 1-0 Leeds
Daniel Farke won't be too upset with how his side have performed in this first half, but they've barely created anything and that's definitely something that needs addressing at the break.
Sunderland 1-0 Wolves
Four additional minutes at the end of the first half at the Stadium of Light.

Calling it now, Bournemouth title challenge on the cards.
Rob, Manchester
Crystal Palace 0-2 Bournemouth
Tyler Adams earned himself a yellow card in the aftermath of that second goal by the way for time wasting.
Bournemouth keen to head into the break with that two-goal advantage. It looks like Palace's unbeaten run at home could be coming to an end if things stay as they are.
Brighton 1-0 Newcastle
That is Danny Welbeck's third Premier League goal of the season.
Like a fine wine...
Sunderland 1-0 Wolves
Great chance for Sunderland but Dan Ballard's header following Granit Xhaka's corner lacks power and is straight at Sam Johnstone. Ballard, however, did well to outjump the Wolves defence to get his head to that.
Crystal Palace 0-2 Bournemouth
Glenn Murray
Former Crystal Palace and Brighton striker on Final Score
Low and hard from close range. It leaves Dean Henderson with no chance.
Man City 0-0 Everton
Erling Haaland shifts the ball across for Tijjani Reijnders who finds Jeremy Doku and the Belgian draws a good save from Jordan Pickford.
Brighton 1-0 Newcastle
Ellen White
Former England striker on Final Score
It such a cute finish. I feel Danny Welbeck has got better and better with those finishes.
Crystal Palace 0-2 Bournemouth
Luke Chambers
Former Nottingham Forest defender on 5 Sports Extra
It's that man again. Semenyo get's it over the half-way line. It's the way Palace have succumb to the pressure of Bournemouth, they now find themselves 2-0 down. A fantastic strike.
Man City 0-0 Everton
Pat Nevin
Former Chelsea winger on BBC Radio 5 Live at Etihad Stadium
Ndiaye has looked a cut above. When he runs at players, the speed of his feet is absolutely frightening.
Man City 0-0 Everton
James Garner goes into the book for a foul before Iliman Ndiaye sees his shot tipped over the bar.
Danny Welbeck (41 mins)
There's that spark!
It's far too simple as Georginio Rutter is too quick for Sandro Tonali. He threads it through for Danny Welbeck, who clips it over Nick Pope.

Football news reporter at Etihad Stadium
Erling Haaland is being kept quiet today, but that isn't unusual for the Manchester City striker.
You know the Everton defenders will have to keep on their toes for the entire 90 minutes, just ask the Burnley players what happened here a couple of weeks ago.
Burnley 1-0 Leeds
Another opening for Leeds as Jayden Bogle connects with one but it's turned behind for a corner but it's punched clear by Martin Dubravka.
Too much height on the delivery.

Starting to get very worried with Wolves. Today and next week are huge games for them to get points but it’s the same old story. They can’t afford to let a points gap open up at the bottom
Kev
Sunderland 1-0 Wolves
A lovely delivery by Marshall Munetsi but there are no Wolves players there to take advantage. Sunderland keeper Robin Roefs has yet to make a serious save.
Eli Kroupi (38 mins)
It's two for Bournemouth and two for Eli Kroupi!
The Cherries move the ball at pace and he drives onto the ball 12-yards out before slipping it in the bottom corner.
Dean Henderson got a hand to it but was unable to prevent it finding the back of the net.

Fulham have only won one of their last 14 Premier League games against Arsenal (D4 L9), a 2-1 victory in December 2023. Indeed, the Cottagers have conceded at least once in each of their last 20 against the Gunners in the competition.
After winning five successive league visits to Fulham from 2012-13 to 2022-23, Arsenal have since failed to win at Craven Cottage in both of the last two campaigns (D1 L1). The Gunners last failed to win more consecutive league visits to Fulham in April 1962 (6).
Arsenal have only lost one of their last 18 London derbies in the Premier League (W13 D4), a 0-1 home defeat to West Ham in February last season. Indeed, since the start of 2022-23, the Gunners have only lost one of their 18 away league matches against fellow London sides (W13 D4), although that was at Fulham in December 2023 (2-1).
Fulham have won both of their last two Premier League home games, last winning three in a row at Craven Cottage in December 2023. The Cottagers are looking to avoid defeat in each of their opening four home matches of a league season for the first time since 2011-12.
Since facing 22 shots against Manchester United on MD1, Arsenal have restricted their opponents to fewer than 10 shots in all six of their Premier League games. The last side to face fewer than 10 shots in more successive matches in the competition were Liverpool from April to August 2022 (9), while the Gunners themselves have never had a longer run on Opta’s records in the league (from 2003-04).
Fulham have lost both of their last two Premier League games, and could lose three in a row for the first time since December 2023. They have shipped three goals in both of those last two defeats, last conceding 3+ more times in a row in the competition in September 2020 (4) – a run that included a 0-3 home defeat to Arsenal.
Arsenal have had 14 counter attacking phases of play in the Premier League this season – the most of any side. Last season, the Gunners ranked 17th for this with just 47 in the whole campaign.
No side has had more different goalscorers (excl. own goals) in the Premier League this season than Arsenal (9, level with Brighton). Only twice before have the Gunners had 10 different players score within their opening eight matches of a Premier League season, doing so in 2009-10 (10 in 4th game) and 2018-19 (8th).
Fulham’s Alex Iwobi has made eight line-breaking passing into the opposition’s penalty area in the Premier League this season, with only Bruno Fernandes (9) making more. Iwobi has also created four chances via line-breaking passes in the division this term, with Fernandes again the only player to do so more (5).
Declan Rice has scored (1) or assisted (1) in both of Arsenal’s last two Premier League games; the midfielder has only had a hand in a goal in three successive appearances in the competition twice before, doing so in February/March 2024 and April/May 2024. Rice has six goal involvements (2 goals, 4 assists) in his last seven away London derbies in the Premier League.
