71% possession for Chelsea after 20 minutes.

Still no goals to show for it though.

Sean Dyche's men almost double their advantage but Johann Berg Gudmundsson's effort from the edge of the box cracks the post.

Aston Villa are seeing plenty of the ball but they are struggling to make things click in attack.

No shots on or off target yet with almost 20 minutes gone.

Adama Traore surges past several challenges in midfield and reaches the edge of the Leicester box.

He has options either side but goes for glory and it's comfortably blocked.

Rafa Benitez is making plenty of his trademark hand gestures, enough for a Saturday night rave.

But his team have made a positive start, in what looks like a 4-2-3-1 formation, with Demarai Gray in the number 10 role and Richarlison out on the left. Gray has impressed the Everton fans so far.

This time Jamie Vardy is onside!

Conor Coady stretches to get a crucial block in as Vardy's strike was heading towards the near post.

Jamie Vardy puts it in the back of the net and it's a cracking finish but he's offside. The flag was up before he took the shot.

The person behind the goal music didn't get the memo quick enough. He was raring to go and had to very quickly stop the DJ'ing.

Awkward.

Now Thomas Tuchel's men have a free-kick down the left edge of the box.

Mason Mount tries to catch Vicente Guaita out at the near post, but the Spaniard makes a save for the cameras by flying through the air to punch the ball away.

A bit of first-game rustiness from Dominic Calvert-Lewin? He rises to meet Demarai Gray's cross - free header - but he puts it over.

Ricardo Pereira matches Adama Traore for pace down the left.

Wolves haven't shown too much on the ball so far. They have been getting it to Traore quickly though.

Leicester still dominating possession but only that tame Jamie Vardy shot to show for it.

What a start from Watford. Everyone was up on the bench. They look together and are having a proper go. It's a full house as well, brilliant!

Chelsea creating a few chances, Mateo Kovacic pulls a shot from the edge of the area wide.

An incredibly fast start to this game which is helped by the fans pushing Chelsea on. They're putting Palace under a lot of early pressure.

The first shot on goal.

Ayoze Perez chips it over to Jamie Vardy on the left side of the box and he hits it first time.

Straight at Jose Sa.

Palace cannot get hold of the ball in the opening few minutes.

Chelsea create the first chance of the game as Marcos Alonso whips a cross into the box but Christian Pulisic heads straight at Vicente Guaita.

Raul Jimenez spins away sharply from Caglar Soyuncu and the centre-back has a little telling off from Craig Pawson.

The Wolves' travelling faithful sing for their number nine.

Aston Villa continue their lively start as Danny Ings gets in behind on the left. He cuts inside and gets into the box before going it alone with a shot that is blocked.

Crystal Palace are so used to a 4-4-2 system under Roy Hodgson which served them well, kept them in the Premier League and stabalised the club in that period of time.

But I think Patrick Vieira is coming in just to bring something more fresh and something more attacking. They have the players, you can see that they have the players in there. It'll be interesting to see how they handle this Chelsea team.

It's bad defending. As a defender, you've got to force the forward to go where you want them to go, and Neal Maupay's gone back on his heels, he hasn't been pushed over.

James Tarkowski's gone to the far post and he's bigger, stronger, and wanted it more. It's a good goal. Maupay's got to do better.
