    A superb run from Conor Gallagher sees him play in Nicolas Jackson but the Chelsea forward is pushed wide and Joe Worrall comes across to block his shot for Forest.

    Oh look, Man City are dominating the same team Arsenal struggled against ... last year was a fluke Arsenal fans.

    Steve

    Zahi: I know a massive Forest fan who moved to Australia recently. Sadly for him, he seems to be closer to Chelsea’s goal than his team today

    DT: I think we’ve gone from the Harry Kane team to the James Maddison one. Not a lot happening without him.

    Chelsea 0-0 Nottingham Forest

    The home side have had a lot of the play here, almost 80% over the last 15 minutes in fact, without really doing that much with it.

    Enzo Fernandez, looks to change all that mind but curls just over from the edge of the Nottingham Forest box on his left peg.

    Burnley 1-1 Tottenham

    Tottenham's Pedro Porro pulls a shot wide from the edge of the penalty area, when the slide-through to Son Heung-min was the option. Son knew it, Ange Postecoglou knew it and Porro probably knew it too.

    Man City 1-1 Fulham

    BBC Sport at the Etihad Stadium

    We were about to experience a rare opening half hour of football involving Manchester City where neither side had a shot - then suddenly we have two goals.

    City's attacking was lethal for Julian Alvarez's tap-in but then they have just fallen asleep at the back.

    Ederson claimed for offside when Tim Ream turned home the rebound from the Brazilian's save at the far post but the American was well on.

    No-one tracked his run.

    What a bizarre couple of minutes.

    Beautiful. It lands almost on the line, and Tim Ream is there to tap it home.

    He wheeled away like it was a 25 yard screamer! But he's got his goal at the Etihad and Fulham have hit back instantly.

    Around two minutes passed between City's opener and the Fulham equaliser. And that includes a VAR for the first in the middle.

  9. GREAT SAVE!published at 15:36 British Summer Time 2 September 2023

    Tottenham's James Maddison plays a give-and-go with Pape Matar Sarr and curls at goal from just inside the penalty area.

    But the England man is denied by an excellent save by James Trafford, at full stretch diving to his left to get both hands to the strike to push the ball away.

    Mathias Jensen curls in a lovely ball for Brentford but Ethan Pinnock, who looks like he may have been offside anyway heads over when unmarked.

    OH WOW!

    Seconds after falling behind, Fulham hit back!

    They win a corner that is met on the volley by Raul Jimenez. Ederson can only get down to push the ball up for Tim Ream to finish from close range.

    The perfect response. They've got some backbone, this Fulham side.

    It had been coming. And it is so, so easy for Bournemouth and Dominic Solanke.

    Ben Mee plays the Cherries forward onside and he cuts in back past Mee before drilling a low effort in at the near post.

    One simple long pass from Marcos Senesi and Brentford were all at sea there.

    For the third home game in a row, Julian Alvarez is on the scoresheet.

    City have lacked intensity, but they switch up a gear and open Fulham up, with Erling Haaland found in behind the defence for a fluffed shot that falls perfectly for Alvarez to fire home.

    The visitors' resistance broken. They have a task on now.

    Vincent Kompany will be delighted with his team's reaction to conceding, they are at home and really taking the game to this Spurs side.

    This is the Burnley side we saw in the Championship last season, pressing high, exploiting spaces, playing very,very good football.

    Close that. Ryan Christie has looked pretty dangerous for the visitors and now drives a low left-foot effort just wide from 20 yards.

    Bournemouth break down the left but Bees defender Ben Mee is a cool customer and chests Dominic Solanke's cross back to his goalkeeper just as it looked like Justin Kluivert was about to pounce.

  19. YELLOW CARDpublished at 15:28 British Summer Time 2 September 2023

    Burnley 1-1 Tottenham

    Such a silly yellow card for Tottenham midfielder Pape Matar Sarr for chucking the ball away as Burnley prepared to take a free-kick in a completely tame area of the pitch.

    Phil Foden again!

    He's in the mood now.

    He gathers on the right and slaloms past defenders but his pull back in the box is met by a Fulham player and cleared.
