It was a really good corner and a powerful header from Virgil van Dijk. It was a good save and there's more good play from Darwin Nunez, but he's offside again.

Nice defending from Moussa Niakhate. He sees out Jarrod Bowen, who was looking to get on the end of a chipped pass from Tomas Soucek.

Virgil van Dijk's header is well saved by Mark Flekken from the Liverpool corner. The rebound bounces back out, Darwin Nunez improvises with a lovely overhead kick to find the back of the net, but he's offside again!

Vladimír Coufal curls in a teasing cross from the right but it's too far in front of Jarrod Bowen.

Ben Mee is down receiving treatment for Brentford but should be fine to carry on.

The referee has got no choice and has to issue a card a cynical foul and worthy of a yellow card.

If you are Nottingham Forest you get the ball out to Anthony Elanga and take Tomas Soucek on.

Vladimír Coufal comes sliding in on Anthony Elanga and gets just enough of the ball to concede a corner, and escape any potential penalty appeals.

Elanga has been Forest's most dangerous outlet so far. He drew Tomas Soucek into a foul a few moments ago too.

Just the two touches for Blades striker Cameron Archer so far.

Darwin Nunez is pointing towards the goal as all good strikers should be. Really good play from Nunez on the shoulder of the defender. I think it's fractionally offside.

VAR has completed its check. It's a toe off from Darwin Nunez. But offside is offside.

Brentford are trying to be compact and wait for a loose pass from Liverpool so they can break forward.

A late offside flag, as is the modern way, as Alex Iwobi cuts the ball back for Andreas Pereira, whose shot is saved anyway. Good move from Fulham. Well except for the offside bit.

Darwin Nunez thinks he's given Liverpool the lead but he's flagged offside.

Dominik Szoboszlai hits it from the edge of the box. It deflects into Nunez's path but he's literally an inch offside.

There's a VAR check...

Well done Ezri Konsa. A brilliant sliding tackle stops Timothy Castagne's low ball reaching Raul Jimenez. Castagne has his head in his hands, the Fulham full-back thought he was getting an assist there.

West Ham are definitely on top in London. A cross from the right is headed down by Lucas Paqueta but he can't find a team-mate.

Disappointing break by Villa, Moussa Diaby can't find a man with a cutback - and then is flagged offside anyway.

Sloppy play from Liverpool in midfield and Bryan Mbeumo is able to carry it forward in another dangerous break.

His pass pushes Mads Roerslev too wide though, and the chance goes begging.

Go by the statistics and past encounters and everything points to this being a high-scoring encounter... apart from what we are seeing on the pitch so far.

It has been a little bit scrappy with few good moments, and neither goalkeeper truly tested.

The wind is picking up a bit and maybe that is playing a part as both sides struggle to get many decent passing moves going.
