City are proving season after season to be possibly the best generational team in Premier League history. Pep hasn’t played world class Foden and ballon d'or contender Rodri and it seems like they’re always playing their strongest team.

Man City 2-1 Brentford
Ederson looks for Erling Haaland, who is one-on-one with Ethan Pinnock again. This time they can't replicate the Norwegian's second goal.
Liverpool 0-0 Nottingham Forest

Forest worked it brilliantly. Szoboszlai made a sloppy pass and it is intercepted with ease - Forest were away.
Wood had peeled away, he tried to bend it into the corner but Allison got down smartly.
Aston Villa v Everton (17:30 BST)

Aston Villa make one change to the side that beat Leicester before the international break.
Jacob Ramsey comes in for Leon Bailey
Aston Villa XI: Martinez, Bogarde, Torres, Konsa, Digne, Onana, McGinn, Tielemans, Ramsey, Rogers, Watkins.
Everton boss Sean Dyche also makes one change after their 3-2 capitulation against Bournemouth last time out.
Captain Seamus Coleman picked up a knock on international duty and is replaced by former Villa man Ashley Young.
Everton XI: Pickford, Young, Tarkowski, Keane, Mykolenko, Gueye, Iroegbunam, Harrison, Ndiaye, McNeil, Calvert-Lewin.
Liverpool 0-0 Nottingham Forest
Forest's first real chance of the game and it's a good one! They counter well, Morgan Gibbs-White picks up space in the pocket and finds Chris Wood on his left shoulder. The Kiwi hits it first time, low, but it's lacking the power needed to beat Allison down to his left.
Good save but one you expect him to make.
Brighton 0-0 Ipswich
Liam Delap almost scores a contender for solo goal of the season.
Having won the ball back, the Ipswich forward powerfully dribbles for what feels like an age - his shot on the slide coming off the outside of the post.
A warning sign for Brighton, who haven't been at their free-flowing best.
Fulham 1-0 West Ham
West Ham have also made an early change after the break with Vlad Coufal on for Emerson, that sees Aaron Wan-Bissaka shunted over to the left.
Liverpool 0-0 Nottingham Forest

Liverpool 0-0 Nottingham Forest
A very early change in the second half for Forest as they send on Callum Hudson-Odoi for Nicolas Dominguez.
Crystal Palace 1-2 Leicester
Just 86 seconds separated Stephy Mavididi's goal to put Leicester 2-0 up and Jean-Philippe Mateta's strike.
You'd be surprised if the scoring ended there.
Liverpool 0-0 Nottingham Forest
That's better, brighter from Mo Salah. He chops the defender to run into the area and shoots early and with plenty of power, right-footed. Matz Sels stands tall to beat it clear.
Man City 2-1 Brentford

Ashley Williams

James Justin's leg is playing Jean-Phillippe Mateta onside.
VAR got it right, well done VAR.
Great reaction from Crystal Palace.
Liverpool 0-0 Nottingham Forest
Liverpool do have 'Plan B' Darwin Nunez on the bench and I wonder how long before he gets on.
Man City 2-1 Brentford
Cries for a penalty from Manchester City's Savinho but it's gone against the Brazilian winger and he's into the book for diving.
Liverpool 0-0 Nottingham Forest
Chris Sutton
Former Celtic striker on BBC Radio 5 Live
From Nuno Espirito Santo's point of view the first half was pretty much perfect, but they need to carry more of a threat themselves.
The support want to see Liverpool quicken the tempo up, but at this moment in time Forest are nullifying the threat of Liverpool.
Fulham 1-0 West Ham
Lovely feet from that man Mohammed Kudus, who has looked as bright as anyone out there for West Ham, he nutmegs his man tight to the touchline but he's choppped down before he can create too much.
Jarrod Bowen is up front through the middle now.
Man City 2-1 Brentford
Bit later kicking off in Manchester because of that injury to Yoane Wissa at the end of the first half.
Pep Guardiola has made two changes. Rico Lewis is off for Josko Gvardiol and Mateo Kovacic makes way for Rodri.
Jean-Philippe Mateta (47 mins)
Image source, Getty ImagesA lengthy VAR check for offside but goal is given and Palace are back in it!
Jean-Philippe Mateta was initially flagged for offside after finishing Tyrick Mitchell's low cross, and it seemed as if that decision would stand.
But the lines were drawn and the Frenchman was shown to be on by the barest of margins. Game on.
Liverpool 0-0 Nottingham Forest
No changes from Arne Slot, can he inspire his side to go up a gear in the second half?

Bournemouth are winless in five Premier League meetings with Chelsea (D2 L3), having won three of their previous four against the Blues prior to this (L1).
Chelsea have lost just one of their seven Premier League away games against Bournemouth (W4 D2), with three of their four defeats in the competition against the Cherries coming at Stamford Bridge.
Bournemouth are unbeaten in all three of their Premier League games so far this season (W1 D2) – they’ve never gone four without defeat from the start of a campaign in the competition before.
Bournemouth beat Everton 3-2 last time out, despite trailing 2-0 up to the 87th minute, the latest a team has come from 2+ goals down to win a Premier League game. It was the Cherries’ third win from 2+ goals behind since their return to the competition in 2022, more than any other team in that time.
Chelsea have won each of their last three Premier League away games, last having a longer run between February and April 2022 (4).
Chelsea have conceded at least once in each of their last 17 Premier League away games, shipping 36 goals in total in this run. Only once have they had a longer run without a clean sheet on the road in the competition, going 24 games between January 1993 and February 1994.
Both Bournemouth and Chelsea have scored a joint league-high four second half goals in the Premier League this season. All four of Bournemouth’s have been in the final five minutes of games (86th minute onwards), while all four of Chelsea’s came in their only away game so far against Wolves.
Chelsea’s Premier League win rate in August is 61.1%, their highest in any month excluding June/July, while it drops to 47.8% in September (their second-lowest). Excluding June and July, only Arsenal have a bigger such drop from one month to the next among ever-present sides in the competition (61.4% in October, 45.4% in November).
Bournemouth’s Antoine Semenyo has had more shots than any other Premier League player this season (17). Meanwhile, Semenyo (17 shots, 4 chances created) and teammate Marcus Tavernier (12 shots, 9 chances created) have been directly involved in 21 attempts so far, with only Kevin De Bruyne (23) being involved in more in the division.
As well as having the most assists so far (4), no player has created more big chances than Chelsea’s Cole Palmer in the Premier League this season (4). Palmer is averaging a goal (23) or assist (15) every 76 minutes in the competition for Chelsea, the second-best rate of any player with at least 1,000 minutes for a specific club (behind only Erling Haaland, one every 67 with Man City).
