Huddersfield aren't in the least bit intimidated by their opponents - it's United who are having to do the bulk of the defending. Anthony Martial commits yet another foul. He's dangerously close to an early spa. Aaron Mooy teases in a free-kick, cleared by Romelu Lukaku of all people.

Burnley need to make better use of their rare counter attacks than that if they are going to pick up a result today. Robbie Brady can't find Chris Wood and the chance is gone.

At the other end keeper Nick Pope is almost caught out of position and City win a corner, Fabian Delph hits a shot well over.

So 10 minutes in and it's fair to say Burnley are not seeing much ball...

Bournemouth have a half-hearted penalty appeal waved away as Jordon Ibe goes down on the edge of the area. Erik Pieters nipped in to beat him to the loose ball and there was a suspicion of contact.

Not enough.

Burnley have set up as you might expect - two banks of four in their own half, with only Jeff Hendrick and Chris Wood advancing to harass City's defenders when they tried to bring the ball forward.

In his predictions this week, Mark Lawrenson spoke about how well organised the Clarets are, saying: "You can close your eyes when you watching Sean Dyche’s side and know that, when you open them, all of his players will be in position."

That’s been the case so far - there is no way through for City at present, and the visiting fans are making a lot of noise to urge their side to keep it that way.

Save! Leicester close to edging ahead as Shinji Okazaki picks out Marc Albrighton lurking on the penalty spot, he side-foots a powerful shot which is heading into the roof of the net until Lukasz Fabianski turns it over!

A bit twitchy here. Anthony Martial has gone in the book for some handbags, while Christopher Schindler has also seen yellow for a poor challenge. Not very friendly in the Denis Law Derby.

Nothing of note to report from Stoke yet. The conditions very much having an impact.

Corner headed away by the home side, the ball spending quite a lot of time in the air. Brian Clough said that if football was meant to be played in the air, they'd have put grass on the clouds.

Garish mix of stripes on Tyneside. Black and white meets shades of claret and blue. It's like watching a moving magic eye. Palace make some headway down the Newcastle right, winning a corner....

Kevin de Bruyne hits a low shot from 22 yards, on his weaker left foot. but it's tame and easy for Nick Pope to smother.

Swansea are pinging it about neatly after that early Leicester chance, the Foxes playing in a time-honoured traditional style under caretaker boss Michael Appleton. Sit back and hit on the break.

Bordering on a goal drought at City as we go four minutes without a goal. Or a shot for that matter.

WIND UPDATE.

Jack Butland's first goal-kick doesn't reach the halfway line. Stoke should get Peter Crouch on!

As a colleague points out, we could see a goalkeeper score today. Asmir Begovic, playing for the Cherries, scored on this ground for Stoke before...

Lots of noise from the home fans, warming up what is a pretty miserable day. Anthony Martial has gone for short sleeves and gloves, which gets a lot of bad press. You can definitely have warm arms and cold hands.

End-to-end start at a grey Liberty Stadium, Leicester counter through Jamie Vardy, with Marc Albrighton crossing for Shinji Okazaki to flick a header on goal - well saved!

And away we go in five games in the Premier League. May your team fare well...

And here come the teams at the Etihad, and elsewhere around the country. All set for another rip-roaring afternoon?

There are no statistics that show bravery, but it is clearly a characteristic that Burnley boss Sean Dyche rates highly in his players, who have blocked more shots than any of the 98 teams in the top divisions of Europe's big five leagues - and do that to 40% of the ones they face away from home.

"One of his pet hates is if you turn your back on the ball," explained Clarets defender Ben Mee to this week's Premier League Show. "You see a lot of goals go in off people who do that, and the gaffer expects you to take the pain."

Mee and his centre-half partner James Tarkowski have made more of those blocks than anyone else and Tarkowski explained how their manager eggs them on: "When the ball hits you in the face, he is screaming at you, saying 'don’t rub it' - so, even if you have got a big red mark and it is killing you, you have got to just stand there."
