    Lucas Digne

    Everton hit back.

    I'm not worried about Leeds in the Premier League this season. They'll be fine.

    They're just conceding too many goals at the moment.

    Fulham 0-0 Leeds

    Leeds looking the more likely at Craven Cottage. Daniel James sets up Tyler Roberts but the home side get a foot in to deny the forward a pop at goal.

    Norwich 0-1 Liverpool

    Just small signs that Norwich think there is something here for them if they can get it right. Christoph Tzolis is central to it. He's finding space and looking lively. End product, though. It is all about the end product.

    Norwich 0-1 Liverpool

    Christoph Tzolis needs to do better. He gathers the ball in space on the left but with players there to be picked out in the middle he drives his cross right into the midriff of Reds keeper Caoimhin Kelleher.
