    Tony Cocozza in London: Why is Antonio playing at full back? He scores when he's in an attacking role and he makes errors when he's at the back. What is Bilic doing?

    West Ham have him starting on the right wing, with Havard Nordtveit at right-back.

    In 23 minutes we will know for sure.

    Manchester City can start rewriting their record books if Pep Guardiola's side extend their winning streak to eight by beating Bournemouth at the Etihad this afternoon.

    It would represent the best start to a season in City's history, surpassing the seven consecutive victories from the 1897-98 campaign, when Darwen, Loughborough and Gainsborough were amongst their opponents.

    City's club record for wins in a row stands at 11, which was straddled between the 2014-15 and 2015-16 seasons.

    Last year, City started with five straight Premier League wins, which they will emulate by beating Eddie Howe's men.

    Cardiff 0-2 Leeds United

    All over in the Championship. Leeds United produce an excellent second-half performance to beat Cardiff thanks to Chris Wood's penalty and Pablo Hernandez's stunner.

    Two wins from two for Garry Monk's men. That will ease any pressure on the Whites boss from trigger-happy owner Massimo Cellino. For now....

    Man City v Bournemouth (15:00 BST)

    Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola throws a bit of a curve ball by resting centre-back John Stones and putting him on the bench, which includes returning defender Vincent Kompany. It seems like Aleksandar Kolarov will partner Nicolas Otamendi at the heart of City's defence.

    Guardiola makes four changes from the midweek Champions League victory over Borussia Monchengladbach as right-back Bacary Sagna, left-back Gael Clichy, winger Nolito and striker Kelechi Iheanacho replace Pablo Zabaleta, Stones, Jesus Navas and the suspended Sergio Aguero.

    Bournemouth make one change from the win over West Brom last time out. Callum Wilson scored the winner in that game but is dropped to the bench by manager Eddie Howe as he has to make way for Jack Wilshere, who makes his first start for the club after his loan move from Arsenal in the summer.

    Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger makes two changes from the side which drew 1-1 with Paris St-Germain in the Champions League. Goalkeeper Petr Cech is recalled at the expense of David Ospina while Theo Walcott is preferred to Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain.

    Two changes for either side.

    For West Brom, forward Salomón Rondón and winger James McClean replace Sam Field and Saido Berahino, who drops to the bench.

    The biggest news is on the Baggies bench where Wales striker and Euro 2016 hero Hal Robson-Kanu sits, ahead of what could be his first appearance since joining on a free on transfer deadline day.

    For West Ham, Norway midfielder Havard Nordtveit and Italy defender Angelo Ogbonna are in for right-back Sam Byram and centre-back Winston Reid. Michail Antonio drops in at full-back.

    Cardiff 0-2 Leeds

    Game over in Cardiff? Leeds United double their lead with a pearler of a second from Pablo Hernandez. That's ex-Swansea midfielder Pablo Hernandez of course. Not gone down well with the natives.

    An amusing moment in the press room at the Etihad Stadium just now.

    It is convention a member of the City staff comes in to read the teams out at 2pm.

    In going through the home line-up, he read out '9 Sergio Aguero'.

    Aguero is, of course, banned. The reading of the teams was temporarily halted to see whether Aguero's name was actually on the team-sheet.

    It wasn't. City's number 9 is Nolito. 

    "I need to get some new glasses," smiled the City staff member.

    Leicester v Burnley (15:00 BST)

    Leicester City have made two changes to the side that that started Wednesday's impressive 3-0 Champions League win at Club Brugge. Ron-Robert Zieler comes in in goal for Kasper Schmeichel, who has concussion, and right-back Danny Simpson returns in place of Luis Hernandez. There's also a Premier League debut for club record signing Islam Slimani.

    Burnley have made two changes from the team that started last week's 1-1 draw with Hull City. Club record signing Jeff Hendrick makes his first start and Scott Arfield comes in. Striker Sam Vokes and midfielder Johann Berg Gudmundsson drop to the bench.

    Leeds United might have been wondering how they were not behind at the break. Now Cardiff must be wondering how they are behind with 15 minutes to go. Chris Wood's penalty has put the Yorkshire visitors ahead.

    Romelu Lukaku's 11-minute blast at Sunderland transformed Everton's start to the season from slightly underwhelming to extremely promising.

    If Ronald Koeman's side win on Saturday then the Dutchman can claim the best five-game start to a Premier League season by any Everton manager.

    Last weekend's defeat has taken a bit of the gloss off Middlesbrough's encouraging start to life back in the Premier League.

    The rubber-stamping of West Brom's takeover has put Tony Pulis' future in the spotlight again.

    He insists he doesn't expect much to change under the new owner, but he could certainly do with things going in a different direction on the pitch, as wins and goals continue to be in very short supply.

    Pulis would love West Ham to be as charitable at the back as they were last week, with the Hammers going from the sublime to the ridiculous against Watford.

    Slaven Bilic is hopeful that capitulation will be a turning point and is expecting a 'big response'. After losing three of their opening four league games, he needs one.

    The big question before a ball was kicked was how long it would take for Pep Guardiola to settle in at Manchester City.

    Most - even the man himself - thought it would take time. However, they have already set down a marker: seven wins from seven in all competitions and 21 goals scored. If Bournemouth are looking for a weakness, City are yet to keep a clean sheet.

    It was a vital win over West Brom for the Cherries and this will be a match where any kind of result would be a bonus.
