    Manchester City 1-0 Bournemouth

    A decent spell from Bournemouth now.

    Vincent Kompany leaves a ball for Ederson to collect, but it's just on the edge of the box and Callum Wilson tries to pounce.

    The Cherries earn two consecutive corners and Steve Cook's flicked header just gets away from Nathan Ake.

    Brighton 0-0 Watford

    Anthony Knockaert is trying his hardest to make something happen for Brighton, but it's just not coming together at the moment.

    Swansea 0-0 Crystal Palace

    Still no goals in this thriller. Crystal Palace have gone closest in recent minutes with Ruben Loftus-Cheek curling an effort just wide.

    It's very naughty, Charlie Austin looks to have ample time to pull out of that one and he just leaves his foot in there knowing he's going to make contact. It's difficult to say, but I think he knows exactly what he's doing.

    Southampton 1-0 Huddersfield

    Ooof. Now this looks nasty.

    Charlie Austin and Huddersfield keeper Jonas Lossl go for a ball into the box. Lossl is there first and Austin's stray boot hits Lossl square in the nose. The Denmark international is bleeding, Austin is protesting his innocence but it does look like he left his boot where it didn't need to be.

    Manchester City 1-0 Bournemouth

    Bournemouth breath a sigh of relief as the offside flag goes up against Leroy Sane, who has paced up the left after being sent on his way by Sergio Aguero.

    It looked like Raheem Sterling was waiting at the back post again, ready to pounce.

    Stoke 1-0 West Brom

    Since the Stoke opener, West Brom have been much more lively but they haven't found the break through yet.

    Salomon Rondon tries to turn his defender and let fly from inside the box, but his effort trickles well wide.

    West Ham 1-1 Newcastle

    Newcastle denied by the woodwork again as Matt Ritchie curls an effort from the right side of the box, the keeper is beaten but the ball skims off the upright.

    End-to-end.

    The first 20 minutes here had a very familiar feel to Brighton's first-half performance against Burnley last week, playing really well but unable to get the ball in the back of the net and you do wonder whether Chris Hughton might go shopping for a striker in the New Year sales. He's opted to start Tomer Hemed today with Glenn Murray on the bench but they do lack a bit of pace in attack and they don't score enough goals from midfield either.

  10. Aguero gets his century - can City follow him?published at 15:34 Greenwich Mean Time 23 December 2017

    Manchester City 1-0 Bournemouth

    Just when the home fans were starting to get a bit frustrated, Sergio Aguero gets them off their seats in celebration - that was his 100th goal for City at Etihad Stadium, another landmark, bringing the familiar chant of "Serggggio" from the stands.

    We could see another century here today by the way - City now need two more goals to reach 100 in the league in 2017. They do have two more games after this one before the year is out, though... if they need them.

    Manchester City 1-0 Bournemouth

    The usual suspects - David Silva and Leroy Sane - link up well, with Raheem Sterling waiting in the wings.

    Sane squares the ball across the box from the left and Cherries keeper Asmir Begovic smothers it.

  12. Postpublished at 15:33 Greenwich Mean Time 23 December 2017

    West Ham 1-1 Newcastle

    Chance for West Ham as the lively Arthur Masuaku produces some neat footwork outside the box, opening up a bit of space for himself before shooting low at goal, but Rob Elliot is behind it.

    Stoke 1-0 West Brom

    Phil McNulty
    BBC Sport chief football writer at bet365 Stadium

    Stoke City well on top here and the home fans right behind their team. If there is lingering discontent here, and there certainly has been, it has been dispelled by a good first half-hour.

    Man City put on a high-press, Bournemouth lose the ball and it's a simple ball over the top. Bournemouth tried to play like Man City and it has backfired.

  15. CLOSE!published at 15:32 Greenwich Mean Time 23 December 2017

    Brighton 0-0 Watford

    Connor Goldson is waiting at the backpost to get his head on a corner, but Watford keeper Heurelho Gomes gets himself in a good position and it goes wide of the post.

    Stoke 1-0 West Brom

    Salomon Rondon pokes at Jack Butland's goal, as West Brom push for an equaliser, but the offside flag is up against the striker.

  17. Postpublished at 15:30 Greenwich Mean Time 23 December 2017

    Southampton 1-0 Huddersfield

    Good chance to equalise for Huddersfield as Florent Hadergjonaj pings another excellent ball into the box for Christopher Schindler, who is unmarked, but the Terriers skipper puts his header wide.

    Huddersfield boss David Wagner screams in frustration. He knows that was a good chance.

  18. Postpublished at 15:28 Greenwich Mean Time 23 December 2017

    Swansea 0-0 Crystal Palace

    Swansea may not be creating many chances but they will be happy with how they are defending at the moment. Wilfried Zaha has largely been kept quiet with half an hour gone.

    GOAL - Manchester City 1-0 Bournemouthpublished at 15:27 Greenwich Mean Time 23 December 2017

    Sergio Aguero (27 mins)

    Bournemouth are finally broken.

    After trying to play it out from the back, Fabian Delph steals possession.

    Fernandinho sees Sergio Aguero hovering in the box, and he pings the ball over the top for the City forward to head home.

    That's Aguero's 100th goal at the Etihad!

    Watford are starting to hold their own after a bright start from the hosts.

    The Hornets counter from a Brighton corner, and although they gain some territory the Seagulls manage to hold up them up.
