Sunderland still look all over the shop. Sergio Aguero breaks clear, rounds goalkeeper Vito Mannone, but is forced too wide. He tees up Raheem Sterling but the shooting chances goes.

Preston are giving this a good go in the early stages of the second half as defender Tom Clarke heads over the bar.

Good stuff from Jesus Navas. The City midfielder battles to win the ball but his curling shot from about 20 yards is parried wide by goalkeeper Vito Mannone. Damage limitation for the Black Cats.

"Tim Sherwood's two half-time changes were greeted warmly by the home fans.

"Jolson Lescott has not looked comfortable, so it is no surprise to see him go off, and bringing on Jack Grealish always goes down well with the Villa fans."

Jack Grealish beats two men and plays two good passes in his first minute on the pitch - which already sews up the man-of-the-match award.

"Not many can argue Reading don't deserve the lead in this one. Steve Clarke handed debuts to four of his summer signings tonight and they've all grabbed their opportunities so far.

"One of them, Dutch winger Ola John, was instrumental in the goal as his surging run and deep cross found Nick Blackman at the far post.

"It's proving a bit of a baptism of fire for Everton's Gerard Deulofeu, the midfielder has looked a threat but has also gone down a little too easily in the area on more than one occasion, much to the anger of the home fans."

The Royals are 45 minutes away from a shock...

Double change for Villa at the break - Tim Sherwood could have made 11 to be honest.

He's brought on Jordan Ayew and Jack Grealish.

Lee Cattermole replaces Jack Rodwell in midfield for Sunderland. After the horse has bolted springs to mind...

And the second half is getting under way in seven of our eight games...

We've not had a managerial casualty in the Premier League yet. Just saying...

Everton's Gerard Deulofeu is still posing problems for Reading. He cuts inside but is crowded out in a packed Royals penalty area. 

BBC Sport's Paul Fletcher at Deepdale: "A decent half of football draws to a close with Bournemouth just about deserving their lead. They worked the keeper more than their opponents managed and looked a little more purposeful in the final third. Fair to say that the entertainment levels - and the ire of the home fans - might be a little higher in Sunderland right now."
