    Bournemouth 0-1 Crystal Palace

    It is starting to get a bit tasty now.

    These are two teams giving it their absolute all and there have been a few flashpoints where it has threatened to spill over.

    Andre Marriner is forced to get the two captains together to have a word.

    Newcastle 0-0 Leeds

    Newcastle are on the charge through Joe Willock. He gets into the box and tries to pick out Chris Wood but the ball is deflected behind for a corner, which is almost hooked in from close range by Dan Burn after being headed back across goal by Joelinton.

    Leeds look very, very vulnerable to set pieces.

    Save!

    Palace sense this game is there for the taking.

    Michael Olise is found on the right and he drifts inside with the ball before buying himself a yard to fire an angled shot that Mark Travers stops with one outstretched hand.

    Bournemouth are clinging on.

    GOAL - Man City 1-0 Evertonpublished at 15:26 Greenwich Mean Time 31 December 2022

    Erling Haaland (24 mins)

    Inevitable.

    It's that man again, Erling Haaland, but it's Riyad Mahrez who creates it.

    He weaves past one defender in the box, jinks again and slides it through to Haaland.

    He cuts it towards goal and Jordan Pickford's touch takes it away from the defender hoping to cover him on the goalline.

    Having played the first quarter of the match in driving rain, the players are taking advantage of a stoppage while the physio treats Philip Billing... to take on water.

    Bournemouth started reasonably brightly but have struggled to cope with the conditions - and Palace - for the past 10 minutes, while home skipper Lloyd Kelly has just talked himself into a yellow card for dissant.

    Fulham 0-0 Southampton

    Che Adams is causing problems again as he has a shot blocked from close range by Joao Palhinha and the rebound is bundled away.

    It's been a good game at Craven Cottage despite no goals yet.

    The marking was absolutely woeful. There were two Newcastle players queuing up and they should have hit the target at least. You can see why Leeds have leaked goals on set pieces this season.

    Bournemouth 0-1 Crystal Palace

    The home fans are starting to get a bit disgruntled. They can see their team struggling, but also outfought.

    Newcastle 0-0 Leeds

    Best chance so far as Fabian Schar flicks a header just wide of the far post from Kieran Trippier's pinpoint corner.

    Man City 0-0 Everton

    John Stones has a quick checkover after he's caught in the aftermath of a bundle in the box from a City corner. He was beaten to the ball by a flying Jordan Pickford but felt the weight of Ben Godfrey on top of him when he landed. He's fine though, shaking it off as play resumes.

    Bournemouth 0-1 Crystal Palace

    Philip Billing is down and holding his hip. Losing him would be a big blow to the midfielder. He has four goals this season and is an important part of the Cherries midfield.

    Bournemouth 0-1 Crystal Palace

    Bournemouth are struggling to make passes stick. They're not seeing enough of the ball to hurt Palace.

    How easy is it to get a free kick these days? I just see anyone fall over nowadays and it's a free kick. It just encourages players to do it more.

    Newcastle 0-0 Leeds

    Leeds have lost their last two Premier League games but they were against Tottenham and Manchester City. If they can get something from this one then it will be a great result heading into some games that look very winnable on paper.

    They've been fine so far in this game, not let up too many chances to Newcastle but also haven't had many themselves.

    Fulham 0-0 Southampton

    Che Adams is in behind and has tonnes of space but the angle is a bit tight as Bernd Leno comes off his line to close him down. Adams tries to curl it into the top right corner but it's well saved and out for a corner.

    Palace have won just one of nine away games coming into this. Their travelling fans are enjoying this now.

    Man City 0-0 Everton

    Bernardo Silva tries to beat Nathan Patterson in the box but at the sight of the Everton defender putting out a foot, the City winger goes down claiming a penalty and goes straight in the book for a dive.

    Fulham 0-0 Southampton

    Willian is enjoying himself for Fulham. He's slipped in behind and pulls it back dangerously but the flag is up for offside. He's causing plenty of problems for Southampton though.

    Jordan Ayew

    Palace had a shot and now they have a goal!

    It is from a set-piece - a corner - and is as easy a goal Jordan Ayew will score all season. He is largely unmarked to meet the delivery and plant a header in.

    Bournemouth concede their 35th goal of the campaign.

    Brilliant tackle!

    Jordan Ayew gets in behind the Bournemouth defence but just as he is about to shoot from an angle, Lloyd Kelly slides in to block.
