    Bournemouth 0-2 Crystal Palace

    Should be game, set and match!

    Palace win the ball in the Bournemouth half and set up sub Jean-Philippe Mateta. He opts to go for an early shot but sends it over the bar.

    Newcastle have almost every outfield player in the Leeds half. It is just attack after attack and they will be kicking themselves if they don't win this.

    Tom Davies is on for Idrissa Gana Gueye, who doesn't look happy to be coming off and is taking his time.

    Ben Godfrey is getting a few bits of instruction from Frank Lampard in the meantime.

    A blow for Southampton as youngster Samuel Edozie heads off with injury. He's had a good game. On comes Romain Perraud in his place.

    I think Guardiola is getting too complacent with his lineups. Foden has played 90 minutes just once in the last six games. Cancelo on the bench. Already dropped a lot of points and maybe more today. Can't all be Haaland.

    Newcastle 0-0 Leeds

    Kieran Trippier with his 541st set piece of the game. It is a decent delivery that Pascal Struijk has to head behind. The corner is then met by Joelinton but he is only able to cushion a header into Illan Meslier's gloves.

    Fulham 1-1 Southampton

    Daniel James and Aleksandar Mitrovic cause all kinds of problems in the box as Antonee Robinson's cross comes in from the left.

    Gavin Bazunu just about punches it away but only to Kenny Tete but he blasts it over from a decent position.

    Man City 1-1 Everton

    Jordan Pickford gets an important hand to Erling Haaland's cross with Riyad Mahrez lurking behind.

    Surely this goal is coming for Newcastle.

    Newcastle 0-0 Leeds

    It is all Newcastle now as Leeds seem pretty content to try to escape with the point.

    The visitors make a double change as Wilfried Gnonto is replaced by Crysencio Summerville, making his return from injury, while Luke Ayling makes way for Rasmus Kristensen.

    Fulham 1-1 Southampton

    Still very tight at Craven Cottage as Lyanco tries to slow Bernd Leno down as he releases Antonee Robinson down the left.

    Mohamed Elyounoussi then slides in and makes sure to bring Robinson down, in turn stopping the counter-attack.

    Bournemouth have changed shape to a back three with Joe Rothwell on for Jordan Zemura. Jaidon Anthony has switched wings for the second time this afternoon, and is back on the right.

    Palace have responded with a double sub of their own with Jean-Philippe Mateta and Odsonne Edouard on for both their goalscorers - Jordan Ayew and Eberechi Eze.

    Into the last 20 minutes now. Palace look pretty comfortable. They're not taking any risks and are managing what Bournemouth are throwing at them.

    Needless yellow card for Gnonto. He's got to watch himself here.

  18. YELLOW CARDpublished at 16:30 Greenwich Mean Time 31 December 2022

    Newcastle 0-0 Leeds

    Wilfried Gnonto is playing a risky game. He is booked for not standing far back enough for a Kieran Trippier free-kick and then keeps edging forward even after that yellow, much to Trippier's annoyance.

    Amadou Onana has a shot deflected behind for a corner after Vitalii Mykolenko was stopped in his tracks. Onana urges the away fans again.

    A huge roar of "EVERTON" from the away fans at the Etihad. New confidence for the Toffees.
