Southampton 1-1 Arsenal
Thomas Partey is robbed by Stuart Armstrong but he can't get it through to Danny Ings.
Cedric Soares then skews a clearance but it falls kindly for Bernd Leno.
Ilkay Gundogan (29 mins)
Someone put Ilkay Gundogan out, he's on fire!
The diminutive Manchester City midfielder pounces on the edge of the box to rob the ball off West Brom, rolls past Dara O'Shea and on to his left foot, before slotting past Sam Johnstone with a lovely finish.
Superb. Just goals, goals, goals for the German this season.
West Brom 0-2 Man City
Ooh. Half a chance for Callum Robinson, who finds space between Ruben Dias and John Stones to turn and squeeze an effort off, but it's narrowly wide.
Southampton 1-1 Arsenal
Stuart Armstrong bends it towards the far corner but it's just wide.
Southampton 1-1 Arsenal
Brilliant move from Southampton. A long ball is flicked behind from Che Adams for Danny Ings.
He lays it off to Yan Valery, who cuts inside and has a go from the edge of the box. He just gets too much on it and it flies over.
Applause from Ralph Hassenhuttl though. That was really nice.
Southampton 1-1 Arsenal
Yan Valery almost loses it but recovers well to pass it back to keeper Alex McCarthy. Arsenal are pressing high tonight and it's causing Southampton problems.
West Brom 0-2 Man City
Do feel a bit for West Brom there.
Hard to tell how much influence they could have had over the goal going in, but looked to me as if a few players stopped. Play to the whistle and all that, I guess...
Southampton 1-1 Arsenal
Jake Vokins whips a really good ball in from the left. Che Adams gets across David Luiz and heads it on at the near post.
He forces a smart save from Bernd Leno.

Bako Omubo: Gundogan is on fire.
Joao Cancelo (21 mins)
Wow.
West Brom had pretty much stopped after the flag went up, Sam Johnstone didn't make an attempt to save that, but Joao Cancelo's goal stands.
The flag had initially gone up against Bernardo Silva, who cut it back to Cancelo to finish from the edge of the box with a lovely, curling effort.
VAR had a look at it and deemed the Portuguese wasn't off. So that goal stands.
West Brom 0-1 Man City
Joao Cancelo curls a lovely effort into the top corner from outside the box, but Sian Massey-Ellis had her flag up a while before he struck it.
VAR is going to have a look at this, though...
West Brom 0-1 Man City
Bernardo Silva sells Joao Cancelo a touch short but wins it back, Ilkay Gundogan then saunters through the middle but there's a wall of West Brom shirts defending their box at the minute.
Southampton 1-1 Arsenal
Hector Bellerin comes flying in on Stuart Armstrong down the line. He gets a yellow for it and James Ward-Prowse has a free-kick.
It's curled in and Danny Ings gets on the end of it but can only flick it into the keeper's arms.
Southampton 1-1 Arsenal
Che Adams fizzes it through to Theo Walcott, eliminating Cedric Soares in the process.
Walcott cuts back, ignoring the calls from Danny Ings, but he drags the shot wide of the far post.
West Brom 0-1 Man City
It's like an attack versus defence drill at the moment.
Raheem Sterling teases Kieran Gibbs before drifting past him and fizzing a low ball across the face of goal. Just needed someone gambling on it...
Southampton 1-1 Arsenal
Thomas Partey tries to curl it in towards Nicolas Pepe at the far post but he gets way too much on it. Straight out for a goal kick.
FT: Newcastle 1-2 Leeds
Newcastle United
More from Newcastle boss Steve Bruce, speaking to MOTD: "Any club near the bottom, if you take out your best players going forward, they make such a huge difference.
"Allan Saint-Maximin has been the one, along with Almiron, who lifts the place up with their ability and to be more of a goal threat, we need him and Ryan Fraser to stay fit.
"If those two stay well and Almiron stays well, then hopefully we have a front three that will create enough to hopefully get us where we want to be.
"This league is demanding and cruel at times. I don't know if I've been on a worse run in 20 years but tonight, I've seen a little bit of something and we will start again tomorrow."
West Brom 0-1 Man City
The Baggies give it away as almost as quickly as they win it back. They're having to soak up lots of City pressure, doing shuttles across the Hawthorns pitch.
Riyad Mahrez cuts on to his left foot and looks to curl one into the far corner, but it drifts high and wide of the target.
FT: Crystal Palace 2-3 West Ham
Crystal Palace
Crystal Palace manager Roy Hodgson: "I thought we lost to the better team, our first half performance was nowhere near as good as we expected to be and as a result we found ourselves coming in at half time 2-1 down.
"Second half we lost it to the set play and when you are 3-1 down even though we had a bit of a spurt in that period it's very hard to score two goals against a team of West Ham's quality and they tool the points deservedly."
Asked what loan signing Jean-Philippe Mateta can add: "We're not playing to the level that we want to play so any player that we bring in we're expecting him to show something more than the players that are being selected, it's up to him to stamp his authority."
Asked how big the next six games are: "Every game is an opportunity, every game you want to see your team play well.
"All we can do is lick our wounds make sure we dust ourselves for the next game and do to Wolves what West Ham did to us tonight."
