Aston Villa 0-0 Newcastle
Newcastle try to play out from the back and make a right mess of it, gifting the ball to John McGinn. The hosts have men forward but fail to capitalise as McGinn leaves his pass a touch behind Danny Ings on the edge of the box.
And it's yellow-card-o'clock in the Premier League this afternoon - Callum Wilson the recipient for grappling with Tyrone Mings.

I love the fact that the referees are just letting more things go - it helps the flow of the game and eventually players will start to think 'alright then I might as well just try and stay on my feet'. It really does help the game.
Man City 2-0 Norwich
Ilkay Gundogan gets the first booking of the game, sliding in to the back of Pierre Lees-Melou.
Leeds 0-1 Everton
Patrick Bamford and Yerry Mina are having a right tussle, and this one ends with both getting a booking - Bamford was a bit late on the Everton defender, who then sort of half-kicked out before cuddling the Leeds forward. All a bit unnecessary.

It looked like a penalty to the naked eye as Dominic Calvert-Lewin went to ground following a tussle with Liam Cooper. We were made to wait because of an injury to Mateusz Klich, but as soon as the referee went to the monitor the writing was on the wall for the home side.
Calvert-Lewin made no mistake with the spot-kick before riling the home fans further by celebrating in front of the Kop.
Leeds had been firmly on top, but it is first blood to Rafa Benitez's men.
Aston Villa 0-0 Newcastle
Still goalless at Villa Park but the hosts are beginning to grow into the game. Matty Cash slings a long, looping throw into the box and it results in a corner.
Chance to whip one for John McGinn and Newcastle stopper Freddy Woodman flaps at it a bit, before the visitors manage to hack clear.

BBC Final Score
Brentford are on the front foot here.
They rode the Palace storm in the first 20 minutes and are now finding their feet here.
Crystal Palace 0-0 Brentford
Palace come close as Conor Gallagher has a go following excellent footwork by Jeff Schlupp, but the shot lacks power and is straight at David Raya.

The Retrospective: Really soft pen for Leeds to concede, who were just about on top. Silly from Cooper, but Calvert-Lewin was also giving Cooper a shove as well. Strange to see the attacking side get the rub in those situations
Leeds 0-1 Everton
Raphinha tries to pull Leeds level immediately but fires narrowly wide with his left foot from just outside the Everton box. We've got a game on now.

For the Norwich players it must be like you're playing against 14 men - every ball is being closed down. Pep Guardiola knows he needs that from these players, that intensity.
Crystal Palace 0-0 Brentford
Brentford have only just come up to the top flight but the Bees are buzzing in possession, playing some confident football and displaying some nice touches.
Thomas Frank's side are just lacking a little in the final third though.
Conor Gallagher has covered every blade of grass for Palace though, looking to stop any attack from the visitors.
Leeds 0-1 Everton

That's a wonderful penalty and he holds his finger to his mouth to hush the home fans.

Dominic Calvert-Lewin (29 mins)
Dominic Calvert-Lewin steps up himself after winning the spot kick... and scores!
The shortest of run-ups, one that would see England fans break out in a cold sweat after the summer, but the Everton forward makes no mistake as he fires into the bottom corner to put the Toffees in front.
The penalty was given after a VAR review that referee Darren England then went over to the monitor to look at himself. Rafa Benitez's side lead at Elland Road.
Crystal Palace 0-0 Brentford
Palace defender Joachim Andersen is into referee Martin Atkinson's book for a late challenge on Bryan Mbeumo.
Man City 2-0 Norwich
City are over Norwich like a rash but Rodri gets his header wrong from Ilkay Gundogan's delivery and the chance is lost.
It was a free header from six yards out too.
Leeds 0-0 Everton
He's given it!
Liam Cooper gets a yellow card for the foul on Dominic Calvert-Lewin too.
Leeds 0-0 Everton
Hello...
Dominic Calvert-Lewin goes down inside the box and VAR will have a look. Darren England is going to have a look at the monitor himself. The Leeds players now looking very nervous.
