    BBC Sport's Chris Bevan at Villa Park

    Christian Benteke T-shirt

    "The big news for Aston Villa fans - and the T-shirt sellers outside Villa Park - is that Christian Benteke is back in their squad for the first time since he ruptured his Achilles at the start of April. The Belgian starts on the bench as Villa boss Paul Lambert makes one change from the side that lost to Chelsea last weekend - Charles N'Zogbia comes in for Andreas Weimann, who scored the winner in this fixture last season.

    "Manchester City hand a start to former Villa midfielder James Milner and make two changes to the defence that started against Roma on Tuesday, with Aleksandar Kolarov and Eliaquim Mangala coming in for Gael Clichy and Martin Demichelis. Joe Hart keeps his place in goal and Fernando is among the substitutes after recovering from a groin injury.

    Former Republic of Ireland international Kevin Kilbane
    Final Score

    "There was brilliant play from Connor Wickham, who beats two or three players, pulls it back, there is a miskick but it falls to Steven Fletcher and he does not miss. He has had injury problems but is a proven goalscorer. Two great goals from him today."

  4. Ten to gopublished at 16:38 British Summer Time 4 October 2014

    Newcastle have played catch-up all through this match, but could they now dip for the line and take all three points?

    Emmanuel Riviere shanks a side-foot effort from 10 yards out and Papiss Cisse hooks over the top as Swansea are stretched at the back.

    Ten to go.

  5. GOALpublished at 16:36 British Summer Time 4 October 2014

    Absolutely awesome stuff from Connor Wickham as he drives forward with the ball for 40 yards - Stoke defenders just bouncing off him - and he eventually squares for Steven Fletcher to smash home from 12 yards, via Jack Rodwell's inadvertent dummy.

    Life in the old 'keeper yet. Steve Harper flings himself skywards to tip over a Yannick Bolassie rasper over from 30-odd yards.

    A high-quality half-second of football all round.

    Almost a chance for number three for Liverpool when Raheem Sterling gets clear, just ahead of Joleon Lescott, but the forward's touch is too heavy and the ball runs away, and with it the chance.

    Myles Warwood:, external Papiss Cisse just does not want Alan Pardew to be sacked.

    Joshua Roberts:, external Saido Berahino- top English goal scorer in the Premier League. Surely San Marino and Estonia were perfect games for him... Electric for U21s.

    Final Score

    "Papiss Cisse, this fella does not know Newcastle are in any kind of trouble at all. He just keeps scoring goals, and he might be the man who keeps Alan Pardew in a job."

  10. CLOSE!published at 16:32 British Summer Time 4 October 2014

    Better from the Clarets as Lukas Jutkiewicz spins his marker on the edge of the area and skims a low shot just past the post.

  11. GOALpublished at 16:30 British Summer Time 4 October 2014

    Papiss Cisse started his Newcastle career as a scorer of great goals. He is looking more like a great goalscorer today. He stretches out one of those whippet-thin limbs to turn in Sammy Ameobi's cross from close range and, although they have been living off scrapes for most of the game, Newcastle are level.

    Adam Jennings at 16:30? Hope you were not on the phone to the bookies.

    Adam Jennings:, external What are the odds of a complete round of home 2-1 wins in the Premier League now then?

  13. GREAT SAVE!published at 16:29 British Summer Time 4 October 2014

    Tim Krul pulls off a carbon-copy of his excellent first-half save. Nathan Dyer's cross, Wilfried Bony's snap-shot and again the Dutchman plunges to his left to turn a low effort around the post.

    German champions Bayern Munich have extended their lead at the top of the Bundesliga to five points after a 4-0 thrashing of Hannover. Robert Lewandowski and Arjen Robben both scored twice.

  15. Football League latestpublished at 16:27 British Summer Time 4 October 2014

    Preston storm into a 4-2 lead against lowly Colchester in their League One thriller, while Nathan Tyson puts Doncaster 2-1 ahead against Scunthorpe. Second-placed Peterborough, aiming to hang on to the coat-tails of leaders Bristol City,are pegged back to 2-2 by visitors Oldham.

    Only two second-half goals to tell you about in League Two - but they are important ones. Bury look set to move top as Kelvin Etuhu puts them 1-0 ahead against Tranmere. At the other end, Carlisle nick a 1-0 lead at Hartlepool. That means the Cumbrians will move off the bottom and be replaced by their opponents if the scoreline stays the same.

  16. SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 16:27 British Summer Time 4 October 2014

    Here he comes. Mario Balotelli is unleashed on West Brom. Rickie Lambert makes way. I'm not going to say that Lambert 'put in a shift'...

  18. SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 16:26 British Summer Time 4 October 2014

    Alan Pardew wants a little firepower up top so summons Emmanuel Riviere off the bench to replace midfield terrier Jack Colback.

  19. Postpublished at 16:26 British Summer Time 4 October 2014

    Stoke are trying to build up a head of steam - but failing, with Charlie Adam's looping header easily caught by Vito Mannone. It was from the edge of the area too. How many times have you seen Adam score a header from the edge of the area? Exactly.
