    GOAL - Arsenal 4-2 Leicesterpublished at 16:35 British Summer Time 13 August 2022

    Gabriel Martinelli

    Surely that is it?

    The Gunners could have been accused of switching off for James Maddison's goal but they restore their two-goal cushion within moments as Gabriel Martinelli drills hard and low past Danny Ward from outside the box.

    Erling Haaland has not had many sights of goal today. This is one, though.

    Jack Grealish's pull back finds the big forward but he drags his shot wide.

    That will be the forward's last act. He departs and Julian Alvarez is on.

    James Maddison

    They are still in this!

    Good work by substitute Kelechi Iheanacho who finds James Maddison inside the box and he drills it through the legs of Aaron Ramsdale.

    Twenty minutes plus stoppages. This is on a knife-edge and could go either way.

    GOAL - Southampton 1-2 Leedspublished at 16:31 British Summer Time 13 August 2022

    Joe Aribo

    They've got one!

    The substitutes combine as Adam Armstrong darts down the left and drives a low cross into the middle that is allowed to run to Joe Aribo. He does his best to try and spurn the chance by dwelling on it, but does finally shoot and finds the bottom corner.

    A potentially huge goal for Saints. Still work to do, though.

    Southampton 0-2 Leeds

    Joe Aribo and Adam Armstrong are on for Saints as they desperately seek a way back in.

    They have 20 minutes to salvage something.

    St Maximin is just not really very good, I would take £35 million for him right now. Surprise surprise there's no takers. Oh I have forgotten about Man Utd though?

    Jamie Vardy's unhappy afternoon ends as he is replaced by Kelechi Iheanacho. Patson Daka and Dennis Praet have also been sent on by Brendan Rodgers.

    Wolves 0-0 Fulham

    The players are taking on some more fluids with Wolves boss Bruno Lage surely wondering how his side aren't ahead.

    They struggled for goals last season - and have less than 20 minutes to find one here.

    Man City 3-0 Bournemouth

    Some of the fans here are really starting to feel the heat. One lad peeps at the game from under the makeshift cover of his coat.

    It's not quite the same flowing, entertaining affair as the first half. City have the win in the bag and have eased off a bit. Bournemouth will be grateful for that.

    Scott Parker must be sweltering in that trendy jacket.

    His balance, determination, drop of the shoulder. Once Jesus is in that penalty area, you can't touch him.

    Just as you think he's got nowhere to go, he manages to get the ball right across the face of the goal but there was nobody there for a tap in for Arsenal.

    'Ole, Ole, Ole'.

    Arsenal fans are having a great time thanks to a Gabriel Jesus-inspired performance.

    Brighton 0-0 Newcastle

    Pinball inside the Newcastle box but Brighton just cannot get it in the back of the net. Newcastle's defenders are hurling themselves in the way. Around 20 minutes plus stoppages left.

  15. SUBSTITUTIONSpublished at 16:26 British Summer Time 13 August 2022

    Man City 3-0 Bournemouth

    A huge roar for Bernardo Silva as he enters the game along with John Stones.

    The midfielder has been linked with a move away but it is clear how much he is loved at the Etihad.

    Rob: Can honestly say I got it wrong about Arteta. After watching the All or Nothing documentary so far it's opened my eyes to how much he really does care and want to try his best for Arsenal.

    You always expect Leicester to create chances with that forward line but defensively they're still not as good as they should be.

    Seth: Was it not at the beginning of last season when Southampton were doing well and some people were calling for Hasenhüttl to replace Ole at Man United? How time has changed! The season is too early for this premature conclusions. He will come good.

    Southampton 0-2 Leeds

    Leeds have been very good so far this half. They've not given Saints a moment of respite. They look purposeful and driven - a different beast to the one that sneaked survival on the final day of last season.
