Everton 1-1 Liverpool

Another nearly moment for Liverpool as the Everton defenders leave the ball for each other and allow Ryan Gravenberch to steal it and attack the box.
His pass is too far in front of Alexander Isak, though, and he might have been better going alone anyway.
Everton break quickly and Iliman Ndiaye gets in down the left. He gets the shot away but Freddie Woodman is equal to it.

Forest are level!
Morgan Gibbs-White pounces on a poor header from James Ward-Prowse and slots past Martin Dubravka inside the area.
Game on at the City Ground!

Liverpool are going for it and trying to get a winner out of it.
There is a bit of belief in the blue side as well.
It looks like we have a game on our hands again now.

Aston Villa 3-1 Sunderland

A couple of changes for Sunderland as Omar Alderete limps off.
He's replaced by Dan Ballard, while goalscorer Chris Rigg makes wat for Trai Hume.

Everton 1-1 Liverpool

Half a chance for Alexander Isak as he is well found by Florian Wirtz but James Garner nips in to prevent him getting a shot away.
It's so open at the Hill Dickinson now.

After 61 minutes, Nottingham Forest are yet to register a shot on target.
They have an xG of 0.58.

Everton 1-1 Liverpool

Liverpool have responded well to the Everton goal and a nice move ends with Mohamed Salah hanging a cross to the far post for Cody Gakpo.
He heads back across, too far in front of Alexander Isak and it's headed off the line.

Nottingham Forest have scored just three Premier League goals in their last eight home games since 14 December.
They need two against Burnley to win this afternoon and there is little evidence to suggest they will even get one so far.

Everton 1-1 Liverpool

The ball rolls kindly for Cody Gakpo but the Liverpool winger drags his shot wide from the edge of the box.
At the other end, Dwight McNeill tries to test Freddie Woodman early but blazes his long-range shot high over the bar.

Giorgi Mamardashvili really did feel there was something wrong with his knee there. Freddie Woodman is third choice but he is coming on.
What an opportunity for Everton now. If you're in blue, get that ball to Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall as often as you can because he is the danger man.
So poor from Liverpoolpublished at 15:17 BST 19 April

It is far too easy for Everton. A simple long ball in behind and the Liverpool defence is sleeping.
To make matters worse, that's the end of Giorgi Mamardashvili's afternoon too.

SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 15:16 BST 19 April
Everton 1-1 Liverpool

Play has not restarted yet and there is more concern for Liverpool because it looks like Giorgi Mamardashvili was injured as Everton scored the goal.
It doesn't look like he is going to be able to carry on and so, with Alisson Becker already out injured, it is third-choice keeper Freddie Woodman preparing to come on for his Premier League debut for the club.
Mamardashvili is taken off on a stretcher. It doesn't look good.

Nottingham Forest 0-1 Burnley

Martin Dubravka takes a nasty fall after attempting to punch the ball away to safety.
After receiving treatment on the floor, the Burnley goalkeeper is now back on his feet and able to continue.

Aston Villa 3-1 Sunderland

Ollie Watkins has a chance to get his hat-trick but the ball into the box from John McGinn bobbles awkwardly and the England striker completely mishits it.

The most dangerous player by some distance has been Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall.
He was second favourite by miles to get to that ball but there was a desire to put it into the box and Beto slides in.
That's the job of a striker and he's done it well there.

CLOSE!published at 15:14 BST 19 April
Nottingham Forest 0-1 Burnley

Oh dear! The ball falls kindly to an unmarked Morgan Gibbs-White in the area and he somehow shins his effort off target.
The Nottingham Forest captain has to do better.

Omari Hutchinson receives the ball deep in the Burnley half, looks to drive at Quilindschy Hartman and then turns back.
The Forest fans respond with a couple of moans and groans. They want to see more from their attackers.

From nowhere!
Just a long ball pumped down the left channel for Iliman Ndiaye and Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall to chase.
Ibrahima Konate doesn't deal with it and Dewsbury-Hall puts a lovely ball across goal for Beto, who slides in to finish.

David Moyes can't be happy with what he sees out there now.
There is no energy.
He will be looking at his bench within the next few minutes, unless they can carve something out of nothing at the moment.
Everton are being played around easily now.
