Southampton 0-2 Aston Villa
It was never going to take much for Southampton heads to fall given the position they're in but those goals have well and truly knocked the stuffing out of the Saints.
As I say that, Stewart plays a pass intended for Ramsdale out of play for a Villa corner.

Brilliant from Donyell Malen.
What mentality to show coming off the bench and making an impact after not being involved in the Champions League squad.
What an impact he has had in recent games, scoring key goals, and the players look delighted for him.
Nottingham Forest 0-0 Everton
Into the final 10 minutes. No one is leaving. It's evenly poised and incredibly tense.
Brighton 2-2 Leicester
Image source, ReutersBrighton have drawn at home this season against Ipswich Town (0-0 in September) and versus Southampton (1-1 in November).
Will it be more dropped points at home against one of the bottom three? These points could be the difference between European football or missing out.
Nottingham Forest 0-0 Everton
How damaging will this be to Forest's Champions League aspirations if it stays like this? They lost 2-1 at Aston Villa last week and now they're minutes away from dropping more points. Their next game is at Spurs in nine days' time.
Donyell Malen
Rogers finds space behind Southampton's midfield and plays in Malen to the right of the box.
The former Dortmund winger makes no mistake from a tight angle, firing past Ramsdale into the bottom left-hand corner for his fourth goal for the club.
Game over?

Typical that Leicester find their scoring feet against Brighton. Same sort of performance from the Seagulls against a team in the relegation zone. It’s like the concentration switches off.

This finish from Ollie Watkins is outrageous. The ball from Youri Tielemans splits the defenders and Watkins gets there ahead of Aaron Ramsdale and with the outside of his foot pokes it over his head. Phenomenal.

Everton break and Alcaraz is at the heart of it. Doucoure plays it to Harrison and he never looked comfortable.
He couldn't keep it under the crossbar.
Nottingham Forest 0-0 Everton
Everton are about 10 minutes plus stoppages from a 15th Premier League draw this season - and sixth in the past seven games.
David Moyes has made them very hard to beat.

Watkins has been having a difficult time of it in 2025.
The striker had just one goal in his last 10 appearances before today and none in his last five matches.
He needed that goal - his 15th of the season - as much as Villa did.
Nottingham Forest 0-0 Everton
Now a shot-on-the-turn by Jack Harrison...that's agonisingly over the bar! It came moments after Ryan Yates came on for Nicolas Domínguez.
Caleb Okoli (Leicester)
Leicester had not scored in the Premier League since January before today, now they have two goals at Brighton and a second equaliser.
A free-kick was whipped in and Caleb Okoli flung himself at it, connecting with a fine diving header and powering the ball past Bart Verbruggen.
Image source, ReutersBrighton 2-1 Leicester
Kasey McAteer with the time and composure to curl an effort at the Brighton goal and home keeper Bart Verbruggen was certainly concerned as he flings himself across goal. Luckily for Verbruggen the ball curls just wide.
Nottingham Forest 0-0 Everton
Ouch!
Not a birthday present Neco Williams was hoping for. The Forest player, who turns 24 on Sunday, is down in pain after blocking a goal-bound attempt by Abdoulaye Doucoure.
Williams took one for the team there.
Nottingham Forest 0-0 Everton
Forest need all their leaders to step up. Ryan Yates is getting ready to come.
Ollie Watkins (Aston Villa)
What an impact Watkins has had since coming on.
After earning a penalty moments earlier, Watkins takes it on himself this time by latching on to a chipped pass from Tielemans and looping an effort over the on-rushing Ramsdale.

It is a great save from Aaron Ramsdale. Credit to him.

Good spell for Everton. Jake O'Brien doesn't often get into attacking areas but it is him who gets forward and has his shot deflected over.
Brighton 2-1 Leicester
Patson Daka almost makes an immediate impact for Leicester, hitting a first-time effort low and hard at the Brighton goal, only for Bart Verbruggen to save it with his legs. Good stop.
