    It’s a classic counterattack like when they won the league. It was a great touch to take it away from the defender and the finish was superb!

    Huddersfield 1-0 Brighton

    Brighton are getting frustrated. Sloppiness at the back has Chris Hughton stomping around on the touchline before Shane Duffy is flagged offside and he chats away at the referee, telling him what he thinks about the decision.

    It has become a real game of cat and mouse in the wide areas: Raheem Sterling is trying to get in little bits of space, Daniels is trying to get forward and there is a concern for Bournemouth on who should be picking up who. There is a real intelligence from the Manchester City players, always on the half turn and ready to move.

    Newcastle 0-1 West Ham

    Unlucky! Marko Arnautovic runs on to a lovely through-ball from Felipe Anderson, inch-perfect stuff, he dances around Martin Dubravka but the keeper does force the Austrian wide. Does he go for goal? No, he decides the angle is too much and tries to cross it but it's cut out.

    Sam Pugher: West Ham ruined the symmetry of the home teams' scores and it's playing havoc with my OCD.

    James Maddison (23 mins)

    Beautiful!!

    Jamie Vardy turns in the middle and lays it off to Marc Albrighton. The Leicester midfielder crosses it into James Maddison.

    There's so much Maddison still has to do as he controls it, juggles it on the edge of the box to beat two defenders and volleys it low into the back of the net.

    Wow.

    Huddersfield 1-0 Brighton

    It's still fairly even in Huddersfield but the hosts are creating a few half chances.

    Alex Pritchard has two shots blocked - one from just outside the area and one from a tight angle on the left.

    They are knocking it about confidently too.

    Newcastle 0-1 West Ham

    Newcastle's first chance since falling behind as Ayoze Perez gets across his marker to flick on a powerful header but it's straight at Lukasz Fabianski. Easy enough to make the save.

    Sulaimon Adelekan: We say so much about Manchester City's attacking players but we don't talk about Fernandinho. He is such a midfielder with class and gets his job done. He is my favourite City player

    Man City 1-0 Bournemouth

    City five points clear at the top in the as-it-stands table after that opener. The champions looking good again.

    Leicester 1-0 Watford

    Marc Albrighton has acres of space on the right wing and he lifts his head up and curls a delightful cross into the box.

    Jamie Vardy is there waiting and if it had been an inch or two lower it would have been 2-0. Instead, it skims over his head and away from danger.

    They (Palace) have been playing well but not scoring goals – but they had a lot of help from the Burnley defence. Roy Hodgson doesn’t smile much, but he is at the moment.

    Leroy Sane has been easily getting in behind Simon Francis in the opening 10 minutes and he makes a simple run, Oleksandr Zinchenko puts the ball into him, Asmir Begovic gets behind it but it drops into the area and the only person on the front foot was Bernardo Silva with an easy pass into the back of the net.

    We have a goal in every game and there's only been around 17 minutes played in each! It's a good day.

    David Ljunggren: And I think we have an early contender for worst marking in a game. Take a bow Newcastle, that was pathetic.

    Huddersfield 1-0 Brighton

    Oh, hold up. Spoke too soon!

    A corner is swung in from the left by Brighton and Shane Duffy's header is a difficult one for Jonas Lossl. The Huddersfield keeper does well to get down low and palm it away.

    James McArthur (16 mins)

    Palace lead! It had been coming, they have been much the brighter side. The breakthrough comes with a slice of fortune as James McArthur's cross from the right is missed by Max Meyer at the near post, missed by everyone in fact, and then hits the base of the far post and goes in. Joe Hart had no chance, wrongfooted.

    It’s a blatant penalty, Ben Foster was a little bit embarrassed trying to say it wasn’t. He didn’t need to go down there, as there wasn’t a clear shot at goal.

    Huddersfield 1-0 Brighton

    After that rapid start, it's started to settle down in Huddersfield. Brighton have enjoyed more possession but are yet to create a clear-cut chance.
