Aston Villa 0-0 Bournemouth
Stephen Warnock
Former Liverpool defender on BBC Radio 5 Live
The timing of the run from Onana is perfect and initially I thought he'd gone too soon.
The ball in from Digne is delightful. Great save.

Chris Sutton
Ex-Premier League striker on Final Score
Wolves' inability to put the ball in the back of the net has cost them a few times already this season and Tommy Doyle has just spurned a golden chance from about 12 yards out. Under no pressure, he strolled onto the ball and he balloons it over the bar. He has to hit the target there.

My stubbornness not to put Haaland in my fantasy team already coming back to haunt me...
Ryan, Liverpool fan
Brentford 0-0 Ipswich
Conor Chaplin is down and in need of a bit of treatment.
Cameras show Leicester City boss Steve Cooper watching on in the crowd. His side play Ipswich next in what could be a crucial game.
Chaplin is fine to continue.

Excellent save by Mark Travers as he somehow keeps out Amadou Onana's header from a free-kick at full stretch.
Man City 1-0 Southampton
Eilidh Barbour
BBC Final Score reporter at Etihad Stadium
The press from Man City is making it so difficult for Southampton to get into any sort of dangerous attacking position. City are just so comfortable in this game.

Brighton are increasing the pressure but, for now, the Wolves defence is standing firm.
Man City 1-0 Southampton
John Stones is on the bench but the Manchester City fans are still enjoying a rousing version of his "Johnny, Johnny Stones" chant.
Aston Villa 0-0 Bournemouth
Stephen Warnock
Former Liverpool defender on BBC Radio 5 Live
It's been electric from Aston Villa in the way they have started and the way they are pushing Bournemouth back.
For Bournemouth, they will just be happy they are still in this game.

Bournemouth haven't had too many chances to get forward but they do so now as Dango Ouattara finds space on the right, but there's no-one inside the box for his cutback.

All across the country satisfied and smug nods of approval from all those with Haaland in their Fantasy Football Team
Richard - North Shields
Death, taxes and Haaland scoring. Sigh.
Phil (Liverpool fan)
Man City 1-0 Southampton
The three-game drought in the Premier League is over.
Image source, ReutersBrentford 0-0 Ipswich
Good stuff from Brentford. They lose the ball but recover well and are passing it around nicely in the Ipswich defensive third.
Bryan Mbeumo looks sharp so far.
Brighton 0-0 Wolves
Another opportunity for Brighton and again it is through Danny Welbeck, but this time he sends his header over the bar.

We are down, Russell Martin is a nice bloke but very naive tactically. Hope we can retain some players come next season.
Geoff
Man City 1-0 Southampton
Southampton are firmly camped in their own half.
It's tough going so far for the Saints.
Aston Villa 0-0 Bournemouth
Aston Villa are still looking the most dangerous at the moment as a through ball deflects off a Bournemouth defender and up into the air, but Ollie Watkins can't get to it before Mark Travers.
Image source, ReutersMan City 1-0 Southampton
Well Matheus Nunes is certainly eager to impress on his first league start of the season. He drifts into the area and lets fly from range. Inches wide.
Too easy for Nunes to get in a position to get that shot away.

As a Southampton fan I'm realistic about this game. We will lose, but I want to see fight, maybe a goal and not a massive defeat.
Peter
Man City 1-0 Southampton
Simon Stone
BBC Sport's chief football news reporter at the Etihad Stadium
Erling Haaland was being pulled and yanked about when that cross came in but his determination to get to the ball was so great, it didn't matter.
It is almost as if the Manchester City striker's desire to score is so great nothing will get in his way.
I am not sure Aaron Ramsdale covered himself in glory either.
Southampton need to be brave to keep playing here. This could be a very long afternoon.

Everton were unbeaten in their first 27 home league games against Fulham between 1949 and 2018 (W23 D4), winning each of the last 22 of those. Since then, they’ve lost their last three at home to the Cottagers.
Fulham are unbeaten in their last five Premier League games against Everton (W3 D2), keeping four clean sheets in the process. All three of those wins in that run have come at Goodison Park.
Since losing their first four Premier League matches this season, Everton are unbeaten in four games (W2 D2). Only once have the Toffees gone five unbeaten under Sean Dyche, doing so in April and May this year.
Fulham have scored the first goal in each of their last five Premier League games (W2 D1 L2), although they’ve lost the last two. Only six teams have lost three in a row after scoring first, most recently Sheffield United in April and May last season.
Everton have kept six clean sheets in their last seven Premier League games in October (W4 D2 L1), including both games this season. Since the 2022-23 season, the Toffees have averaged 0.75 points per game in August and September (P20 W3 D6 L11) compared to 1.55 points per game in October (W5 D2 L4).
Since Sean Dyche’s first Premier League games in charge of Everton, only Arsenal (33) have scored more goals via set pieces (excl. pens) than the Toffees (27).
Fulham manager Marco Silva has won each of his last two away Premier League games against Everton, whom he managed 53 times between August 2018 and December 2019. In Premier League history, the only manager to win away at his former club more than twice in a row was Harry Redknapp at West Ham between 2006 and 2009 (five in a row).
Everton have made just 22 substitutions in the Premier League this season, fewer than any other side. Since the 2014-15 season, among managers to take charge of 50+ games, Sean Dyche has made the fewest subs per game of any manager (2.4).
Dwight McNeil has been involved in six goals in his last six Premier League appearances (3 goals, 3 assists) for Everton. He’s only the third Toffees player with three goals and three assists in the opening eight games of a season, after Francis Jeffers in 1999-00 and James Rodriguez in 2020-21.
Raúl Jiménez has scored or assisted in each of his last five Premier League appearances for Fulham (4 goals, 1 assist). No Cottagers player has done so in six games in a row, while only three players have scored or assisted in six in a row aged 33 or older: Gus Poyet aged 34 in 2001, Dennis Bergkamp aged 35 in 2004 and Zlatan Ibrahimovic aged 35 in 2017.
