Villa's Tom Cleverley with a shot with the edge of the area, but a defender sticks out a leg and it is diverted towards the corner flag. Not even close.

As results stand Leicester are looking like being cut adrift again at the bottom. Can they force their way back into the game at Anfield? They've offered precious little so far in this half.

"The type of performance that Sunderland are producing requires a lot of mental strength and focus. I just wonder, as the game goes on, if they will start to lose concentration as the legs fatigue. Will City wear them down? But at the moment, Sunderland are holding on very well."

How has that stayed out?! So unlucky for Burnley! Danny Ings curls a beauty from 20 yards on to the crossbar, and strike partner Ashley Barnes follows up with a header against the base of the post!

You couldn't script it. Sean Dyche holds his head in his hands.

Close for Charlie Austin! His header strikes the post before Leroy Fer's deflected shot is just over. Lightening start to this second half by QPR.

Burnley will believe they can still win this - they came from 2-0 down at Manchester City don't forget. They forge the first chance of the half too, George Boyd stretching to turn over the top.

Nothing to see here. Let's move on.

"Man City's final ball has been a disappointment today. The cross too often hits the first man, and when they do work it into the box, there's no-one there.

"It still looks as if patience is the key for them. They have to make sure they don't get sucker-punched. It's one of those tricky little games for them at the moment."

"That first half is Arsenal all over: good going forward, a couple of chances, but at the back inept. Arsene Wenger said in his AGM that he would buy a defender in January.

"They have got no leaders - we seem to have this conversation every year. Do they have a defender who is willing to attack the ball and get in the way of shots? No. They are all nice players."

West Brom are taking the game to their hosts now and Saido Berahino fashions room on the edge of the box before firing in a shot which deflects off James Collins before being gathered by Adrian.

Liverpool almost score from kick-off! Raheem Sterling bolts down the middle, Fifa style, and the ball squirts up off a challenge toward Alberto Moreno. The left-back hammers in a first-time shot which whistles over the top.

Something needs to happen for Everton and Roberto Martinez makes an attacking change, bringing on striker Romelu Lukaku and midfielder Bryan Oviedo for winger Kevin Mirallas and defensive midfielder Muhamed Besic respectively for the start of the second half. Can they help swing this game in Everton's favour?

Already there is more urgency from Manchester City in the second half, with Frank Lampard warming up on the touchline. An important 20 minutes ahead.

Tony Pulis was in the West Brom dressing room at half-time in this one. What might he have said? His side have fought back well in this game.

Everton boss Roberto Martinez can have no complaints with the scoreline in this game, with Hull good value for their two-goal lead. Should they lose today, that's four Premier League defeats on the bounce and, as it stands, they will drop to 13th, just four points above the relegation zone.

"Wait until you see some of the refereeing decisions on MOTD. I reckon some of them may have been celebrating too hard last night."

Arsenal have been behind 11 times this season and are yet to come back to win, while the Saints are yet to lose after going ahead. Home banker then?

Powell Omondi:, external "Gerrard might get a hat-trick with three penalties."

You may recall that Steven Gerrard had just that opportunity when Liverpool won 3-0 at Manchester United in the Premier League in March, but hit the post with his third kick after scoring his first two.

Oddly, Gerrard saw a penalty hat-trick the first time he went to Anfield - seeing Jan Molby hit three in a 3-1 League Cup victory over Coventry in November 1986.

"Jan's hat-trick was the first ever game that I went to see," Gerrard said in March., external "My dad took me. It was against Coventry and it finished 3-1. Jan got three penalties. But Jan's a better penalty taker than me."
