    Has that West Brom goal come against the run of play?

    Possibly...

    The image above shows the average position of the players on both sides so far - the Baggies have been much deeper.

    It's a wonderful West Brom set-piece. Two runners made their way to the near post, which distracted the entire Watford defence. And Evans was able to get head and shoulders above everyone to head home.

    GOAL - West Brom 1-0 Watfordpublished at 15:16 Greenwich Mean Time 3 December 2016

    Jonny Evans (16 mins)

    They may not have a full ground, but West Brom lead Watford and could be going seventh in the Premier League today. Jonny Evans puts them ahead (yes, really, Jonny Evans), hanging in the air like Kobe Bryant to meet a Chris Brunt corner and power in a header.

    Gareth Southgate is back at his old stomping ground, now as full-time England manager rather than Crystal Palace defender

    He's not seen anything to get him excited yet. Not much quality on show.

    There are a lot of empty seats at The Hawthorns, which has been a pretty regular sight this season. Are you a stay-away Baggies fan? Let us know why.

    Loads of possession for Tottenham in the first 10 minutes.

    It's totally accidental from Taylor but his leg follows through and catches him flush in the face. There's no intention to actually strike Walker but he's taken a nasty one around his nose. 

    It's a must win for Tottenham to try and keep in touch with the top four group. Even as early as this, it looks as if the title is moving away from them with Chelsea opening up a substantial lead.

    Kyle Walker is going to be OK. He's just changing his shirt, then he'll be back into the action. He might not remember much in the morning, though.

    Stoke 0-0 Burnley

    Hit the post! Stoke corner, Bruno Martins Indi with the header, off the base of the post and away. Decent game, this.

    Tottenham 0-0 Swansea

    Good lord, this is a WWE style collision. Neil Taylor's boot is very high and Tottenham defender Kyle Walker is on the deck. Taylor himself ended up upside down. Walker looks in trouble, it takes a good while for him to get back to a sitting position. If this was a cartoon, he'd have little tweeting birds flying around his head.

    Sunderland 0-0 Leicester

    Victor Anchiebe has enjoyed a comeback comparable to Bryan Cranston. Remarkable.

    The in-form Sunderland striker has a sniff against the Premier League champions, his low shot deflected wide and over.

    Stoke 0-0 Burnley

    Burnley struggle away from home to score goals, or even to get balls into dangerous areas. I fear they'll really find it tough this afternoon.

    Stoke 0-0 Burnley

    Burnley have had the better of the early exchanges, their two men up top causing trouble to the Stoke backline. Ashley Barnes is put through and gets a shot away, only for the flag to be raised.

    Crystal Palace 0-0 Southampton

    Alan Pardew is hoping he won't be pushed towards the chop by his former club. Southampton will be hoping to send him to the job centre on Monday. 

    The visitors enjoying plenty of possession, especially in wide areas, but are yet to test home keeper Wayne Hennessey.

    You can stick Swansea's away strip in the toothpaste category too. Granted their home strip would create something of a clash with the Spurs white.

    Early rant time. Why aren't Burnley playing in their traditional colours? Their luminous blue away effort makes them look like toothpaste. Surely their home kit wouldn't clash with Stoke's red and white?

    West Brom 0-0 Watford

    An early chance for Watford calls West Brom keeper Ben Foster into action. Nordin Amrabat has pop from the corner of the 18-yard box, with Foster flying high and to his right to tip over the bar.
