    Leicester City make a change for the second half as Marcin Wasilewski replaces fellow defender Matthew Upson.

  2. SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 16:06 Greenwich Mean Time 21 March 2015

    A change for Southampton as Victor Wanyama stands hands on hips on the touchline. He will replace Dusan Tadic. Tadic was not at his best in the opening period, giving the ball away with more than one pass in four.

    This game will finish a little later than the others as a result of first-half injury time.

    What a start to the second half for Newcastle! In fairness, they had been pressing towards the end of the first half and now they make things interesting as Moussa Sissoko drives in from Remy Cabella's cross.

    Ayoze Perez goes close to making it 2-2 moments later. What a game we have here.

    As things stand, Aston Villa would move four points clear of the relegation zone with a draw as Burnley are behind at Southampton.

    Tim Sherwood may well have asked his side to get hold of the ball more at the break but they start by conceding a corner as the pattern of Swansea looking most threatening continues.

  5. KICK-OFFpublished at 16:03 Greenwich Mean Time 21 March 2015

    After a 15-minute breather, players are getting their games back under way. Who will be the big winners and losers in 45 minutes' time?

    Sergio Aguero could not find the net as David Silva, Wilfried Bony and Fernando scored in their 3-0 win over West Brom.

    More from Tony Pulis speaking to Match of the Day: "These decisions change games.

    "In the modern world today refereeing is a tough job. I speak for a lot of managers in the professional game that the standard of refereeing hasn't been good enough this season.

    "If we can help them with a 30-second call-back option, say two times in a game, it would stop us talking about the referees and more about the game itself instead.

    "If we can help them in shape or form we should."

    More from Tony Pulis, speaking to Match of the Day earlier: "It was always going to be difficult coming here today with two players suspended so to lose another player after just two minutes made it uphill all the way.

    "I speak to Mike Riley fairly regularly, most weeks and he always rings back to chat about issues.

    "It's not to complain about referees, it's to talk about how we can improve them.

    "The game should be talking about it as a whole as it's a wonderful product that we should be getting together to protect.

    "We can't keep having people make decisions that affect games."

    West Brom manager Tony Pulis speaking to Match of the Day: "I watched the game last night between Wolves and Derby and there was a similar decision and the referee gave a free-kick and didn't even book the player.

    "The inconsistency is what's annoying. But how he sends off the wrong player is beyond me.

    "The second goal he has also awarded after there's a foot up in the face of Saido Berahino in the build-up. How he doesn't give a free-kick for that is also beyond me."

    David, Worcesteshire: I saw my first game at St James' Park in 1964 but I'm afraid I'm losing interest. It's not because the team is terrible - that has happened lots of times before. The limit of the club's ambition seems to be not to get relegated.

    Ross Parlett: Nice to see Kelvin Davis get a run out - he's been going for donkey's years.

    Nicholas Allen: Arsenal players falling over like dominos. Pathetic to watch.

    David Ljungren: Newcastle look like dead men walking. Anita, Gouffran, Cabella & Riviere are all inexplicably poor signings. We need new scouts.

    "Newcastle started well but went two goals behind after some terrible defending. They've managed to steady themselves since after reorganising but Arsenal have been dominant. They've been playing some lovely football and it should be three or four if I'm honest."

    Tight at Villa Park.

    Not much in the way of clear-cut chances with the exception of that Bafetimbi Gomis chance early on which was well saved.

    Ki Sung-yueng has been impressive again and has completed 97% of his 34 passes. Jack Cork is hovering around 91% and the pair have kept the visitors ticking over nicely in midfield.

    Norwich have taken a potentially crucial lead against Nottingham Forest in the Championship, Jonny Howson putting Alex Neil's side ahead as they look to close in on the top three. Watford, who would move to the summit with a win, are level with Ipswich.

    Goals have been scarce elsewhere, too, with only Fulham, Brighton, Reading and Blackpool having rippled the rigging.

    In League One, Preston are making the most of Bristol City being idle ahead of tomorrow's Johnstone's Paint Trophy final, with Simon Grayson's side leading at Barnsley.

    Meanwhile, in League Two, leaders Burton's two-goal advantage over Tranmere has been halved, while nearest challengers Shrewsbury still lead Oxford.

    Vince, London: Hardly a word from anyone in the media about Olivier Giroud's goal-scoring form. I wonder when he will finally get the respect he deserves?

    Chris, Towcester: It's just hit me. After 35 years supporting Newcastle I just don't care anymore. Mike Ashley has removed hope from supporting the club and without hope, football is nothing.

    "A tremendously entertaining first half as Spurs roared into a two-goal lead thanks to Harry Kane but Leicester have come back strongly and scored through Jamie Vardy. The Foxes are back in it now."

    Chances, chances, chances. George Boyd is eight yards from goal and perfectly arriving on cue as Sam Vokes heads across the six-yard box, here he comes... header... tipped over by Kelvin Davis.

    That is a third decent save since he came on for Forster, who was taken off on a stretcher.

    Leicester City are far from beaten at White Hart Lane. They are creating plenty of chances and the latest one sees Leonardo Ulloa head over from eight yards.
