    Bishop Yinkus: Chelsea leading again, will they ever stop scoring? Will be a big blow if they run away with the title.

    Ar Vind: Lallana the English Iniesta.

    Dave W: Rooney had a clear sight of goal from15 yards but tried to lay it off. Striker's instinct has gone. Aguero would have buried it.

  7. CLOSE!published at 20:33 Greenwich Mean Time 14 December 2016

    Tottenham 1-0 Hull

    Good from Hull again, and again it's Jake Livermore who threatens but Hugo Lloris saves his toe-poke. Hull have looked dangerous on the counter.

    Mark Noble steps up to take the penalty. IT'S SAVED. But unfortunately for Tom Heaton, he only parries the ball back to the West Ham captain, who turns the rebound home.

    Willian hits the free-kick over - and that's half time.

    Pablo Zabaleta (33 mins)

    Manchester City have made the breakthrough and it's not from a common source. Kevin de Bruyne crosses and Pablo Zabaleta lashes home.

    Winston Reid is brought down by Ben Mee. Penalty.

  13. YELLOW CARDpublished at 20:31 Greenwich Mean Time 14 December 2016

    Sunderland 0-1 Chelsea

    Diego Costa's touch to bring down a pass is majestic, John O'Shea's tackle from behind is brutal. Booked. 

  14. HITS THE WOODWORKpublished at 20:31 Greenwich Mean Time 14 December 2016

    West Ham 0-0 Burnley

    West Ham hit the woodwork for the second time as Mark Noble's delicious curling effort from 20 yards cracks off the post.

    That came moments after Matt Lowton brilliantly blocked Aaron Cresswell's shot.

    Crystal Palace 0-0 Man Utd

    Almost a half-chance for Manchester United but Wayne Rooney's touch for Zlatan Ibrahimovic is too strong and goes through to the Palace keeper.

    Henry Pell-Johnson: You can't see Mile Phelan's Hull getting anything out of this game unless Christmas comes early.

    Khalid: Too many people were laughing as Lallana took time to settle at Anfield, can't hear the laughter no more this season.

    Ngunjiri Gathiti: Fabregas showing he doesn't want to be sold off come January.

    Sunderland 0-1 Chelsea

    Cesc Fabregas is running the show now, playing a delightful lofted pass into the goalmouth and Diego Costa can only nod it well wide. Sunderland treading water.

    Crystal Palace 0-0 Man Utd

    Manchester United midfielder Michael Carrick goes down after Christian Benteke goes through the back of him with his arm. It didn't look intentional, but if you come up against Benteke physically, it's rarely going to end well for you. He is OK to play on though.

    Meanwhile, Matteo Darmian is warming up on the sidelines. Not sure if he might be coming on, or just wants to keep warm.

  19. HITS THE WOODWORKpublished at 20:29 Greenwich Mean Time 14 December 2016

    Middlesbrough 0-1 Liverpool

    Liverpool so close to a second! Sadio Mane burns clear of the chasing defence and bobbles a left-footer across goal, past Victor Valdes but flush against the base of the post. 

  20. Postpublished at 20:28 Greenwich Mean Time 14 December 2016

    Tottenham 1-0 Hull

    Hull have rallied and go close on the counter. Former Tottenham man Jake Livermore makes a 50-yard run through the middle but his shot can't find the net.
