A first effort of note by Newcastle as Jacob Murphy is slipped through on goal on the right but his shot from a tricky angle is denied by Djordje Petrovic at his near post.

I'd write more about this game if I could but not a lot has happened. Aston Villa have been seeing more of the ball in the last few minutes, however.

Bournemouth continue to look the most likely to score here and Nick Pope is forced into his first save of the afternoon when David Brooks' smart backheel finds Tyler Adams, whose low drive is kicked away by Pope.

Neither team have really settled yet and neither has had a real sustained passage of possession either. They're both choosing to go long.

Bournemouth continue to dominate and enjoying plenty of possession and attacking intent as Alex Jimenez's volley inside the box is blocked.

A nice, sweeping move from back to front by Bournemouth but Alex Scott's attempt at a through ball is cut out.

Plenty of possession from Sunderland so far, with the hosts looking sharp and confident.

There have been four occasions where all three promoted teams survived.

The last time was just three years ago, when Fulham, Bournemouth and Nottingham Forest all beat the drop.

Sunderland put in a mature performance at Crystal Palace last time out. Ok it was 0-0 and the goalkeeper Roefs had to make a lot of saves, but that is what you have to do in the Premier League.

The challenge for the promoted sides is facing established top flight teams like Palace, Selhurst Park is not the easiest place to go to, and they went there and got their first away point.

This afternoon is Sunderland's dedicated Bradley Lowery match, with the Bradley Lowery Foundation's ‘Cancer Has No Colours’ campaign being part of Childhood Cancer Awareness Month.

This is a great place to come to. I've been here since early this morning and walking across the bridge to the ground you could see the red and white shirts and the atmosphere building.

It's going to be a full house. These fans are absolutely delighted to be back in the Premier League and the team has more than given a good account of themselves so far.

Sunderland in the sunshine for their game at home to Villa. If the home side win they'll move right points clear of Villa and they could be in the top three. What an amazing start to the season that would be!

Bournemouth boss Andoni Iraola believes Newcastle United have a "very similar" playing style to his side, so he is expecting "a very physically demanding game" and hoping it will be "a good challenge" early in the season.

Iraola added: "The games we have played against them have been quite open. We have our chances and they also have their chances, so you never know what's going to happen. We enjoy those kind of games, even if the opposition is very good. We have to be ready for everything."

Leaders Liverpool are already five points clear at the top of the table after they beat Everton yesterday.

You can watch the highlights of that match above, and the key action from the rest of yesterday's games here.

I haven't backed Sunderland to win yet this season, and a few of their fans have been hammering me on social media because they have made a really good start.

But I am not just going to back them to win for the sake of it, even against an Aston Villa side who are short of form and confidence, and cannot even score a goal at the moment either.

Instead I am going to say Villa will come good, and for Ollie Watkins to not just get their first goal of the season, but to secure their first win too.

Apologies again to Sunderland fans for that - they can hammer me again this week if I'm wrong.

Sutton's prediction: 0-2

Scoring goals has been a real issue for Aston Villa this season and boss Unai Emery knows that needs to improve to get them moving up the table.

"Now we have to do one thing, we have to try be more clinical with the ball in attack, better than we did," he said.

"Of course, we scored the first goal against Brentford on Tuesday but it wasn't enough because we didn't win but it's the way we are working and focusing."

Today will be the first of five matches in 14 days for Villa and when asked how he's going to utilise his squad and manage minutes, Emery said: "We are going to focus on today 100%. We are preparing and players have to do their best. We need the points.

"We need to continue performing and to continue competing and doing something better than what we did in the last two matches because we didn't achieve the results we wanted."
