Nottingham Forest 3-0 Southampton
Ivan Juric looks to his bench and makes three changes as Paul Onuachu, Kamaldeen Sulemana and Ryan Manning replaces Adam Armstrong, Cameron Archer and Yukinari Sugawara.
Man Utd 1-1 Brighton
Yankuba Minteh finds space on Brighton's right and delivers a teasing ball but none of his team-mates had made the run to go and get on the end of it.
Nottingham Forest 3-0 Southampton
Southampton's Kyle Walker-Peters is the second player to be booked for almost pulling the shirt off Ola Aina.
Everton 3-0 Tottenham
Spurs have had more than 65% possession in the opening five minutes of the second half but they've done absolutely nothing with it.

It has been chalked off after referee Peter Bankes was asked to go and watch the incident back on the pitchside monitor.
Jan Paul van Hecke definitely made contact with the underside of Diogo Dalot's boot and the ball then fell to Joao Pedro who finished.
It looks like the right call.
Nottingham Forest 3-0 Southampton
How has that stayed out?!
Forest put the ball in the box and Anthony Elanga's effort was well saved by Aaron Ramsdale before Morgan Gibbs-White's strike was scrambled away.
Man Utd 1-2 Brighton
Or have Brighton retaken the lead?
This is being checked for a possible foul from Jan Paul van Hecke on Diogo Dalot.

"Come on you Reds", sounds around the City Ground as Forest win their first corner. It's a good delivery but it's headed clear by Southampton. They keep it at three for now.
Joao Pedro (53 mins)
Terrible defending and Joao Pedro pounces to put Brighton back in front.

It's all Forest in the opening stages of the second half. Understandably, Southampton are looking very flat.
Man Utd 1-1 Brighton
Danny Welbeck wins Brighton a free-kick around 35 yards out and just right of goal.
Welbeck was pushed from behind by Kobbie Mainoo and ended up falling into the legs of Harry Maguire.
Everton 3-0 Tottenham
Tottenham do make a change at the break. Richarlison comes on for Radu Dragusin, who may be feeling the effects of that cut above his eye. That means Spurs will revert to a back four.
Ange Postecoglou has been stood in his dugout for a few minutes now. You guessed it, his arms are folded.
Nottingham Forest 3-0 Southampton
Neco Williams moves at speed down the left and wins a free-kick. Still can't get over a full-back wearing number seven.

Amad Diallo still looks like Manchester United's biggest threat in open play. The winger, who recently signed a long-term deal at Old Trafford, evades a tackle as he cuts in from the right and then sees his shot blocked.
Man Utd 1-1 Brighton
Brighton really do play some remarkable and very risky football.
They inventively work it from their defensive third, through midfield and deep into Manchester United territory before the final shot, which was a rocket, from Carlos Baleba is blocked en route to goal.
Nottingham Forest 3-0 Southampton
Ivan Juric stands arms crossed on the touchline. Probably wondering how he's going to sort this Southampton side out.

Off we go for the second half at Old Trafford.

Anyone got the mobile number for Ryan Mason, looks like he'll be needed in the morning at Tottenham.
Bert - Middlesex
Man Utd 1-1 Brighton

Will there be any other trophies paraded at the Theatre of Dreams this season?
The Premier League might be out of reach but Manchester United remain in the FA Cup after their dramatic 10-man penalty shootout victory against Arsenal last weekend.
Nottingham Forest 3-0 Southampton
Southampton get the second half under way. It's a long way back for them.
Lesley Ugochukwu replaces the booked Flynn Downes for the Saints.

Ipswich have lost just one of their last 28 home league games against Man City (W20 D7), winning the last four in a row. This is the first such meeting, however, since a 2-1 win in May 2001.
In what is the 30th different league campaign in which they’ve met, Manchester City are looking to complete the double over Ipswich for just the third time, previously doing so in 1961-62 and 1994-95.
Since a 3-2 win over Manchester United in September 1994, Ipswich Town are winless in their last six Premier League games against the reigning champions (D1 L5). They’ve conceded 21 goals in this run, while scoring just twice themselves.
Manchester City have won 20 of their last 21 Premier League games against promoted sides since losing 2-1 to Leeds United in April 2021, with the only exception in this run being a 1-1 draw at Nottingham Forest in February 2023.
Over their last two Premier League campaigns (2001-02 and this one), Ipswich have won just one of their 14 games played on a Sunday (D6 L7), winning 2-1 at Spurs earlier this season.
Manchester City have dropped 14 points from winning positions in the Premier League this season, letting a 2-0 lead slip to draw 2-2 with Brentford last time out. It’s the most points the Citizens have dropped from ahead in a single campaign since 2008-09 (20).
Manchester City have conceded 29 goals in 21 Premier League games this season, with their average of 1.4 goals conceded per game their highest in a single campaign since 2007-08 (also 1.4).
Sammie Szmodics scored Ipswich’s goal in their 4-1 defeat against Man City in the reverse fixture. The last time a player for a promoted side scored home and away goals against the reigning champions in a campaign was 2017-18, with Newcastle’s Dwight Gayle and Huddersfield’s Laurent Depoitre doing so against Chelsea.
Erling Haaland scored a hat-trick in Man City’s 4-1 win against Ipswich earlier this season – the only player to score home and away hat-tricks against an opponent in the same campaign is Emmanuel Adebayor (for Arsenal vs Derby County in 2007-08).
Having failed to score in his first 11 Premier League games this season, Man City’s Phil Foden has netted four goals in his last five. He’s looking to score in three consecutive league games for the first time since October 2022.
