  1. Brighton 1-1 Brentford

    Well I say Yoane Wissa is on but he wasn't ready in time so play has restarted with 10 men.

    What has happened to the normally reliable Palace centre back duo of Marc Guehi and Joachim Andersen? They haven't kept a clean sheet in their last three games now, and conceding again tonight is proof that we are not good enough for the Premier League anymore.

  3. SUBSTITUTION

    Brighton 1-1 Brentford

    Disaster for Brentford. Top scorer Bryan Mbeumo can't continue. He's helped off the pitch (very slowly) by two physios and Yoane Wissa is on.

  4. 'City team not the same without Rodri'

    Aston Villa v Manchester City (20:15 GMT)

    Rodri is such a vital player for Manchester City. They have a number of players that can replace one another in the squad, but when you see the team without him it isn't the same.

    I don't think Kalvin Phillips has ever really gotten to the standards that the club expected him to reach. Mateo Kovacic has come in but I don't think he has really thrown the gauntlet down and said "I'm here to take your place."

    Because so much of their play goes through him, when he is out of the team they do miss him an awful lot. The last couple of games he hasn't been on top form, he'd admit that himself, but he will be a loss at Villa Park.

  5. goal

    GOAL - Sheffield United 0-1 Liverpool

    Virgil van Dijk (37 mins)

    Easy stuff for Liverpool as skipper Virgil van Dijk finds himself free in the box to volley in a quick corner from close range.

    There is a brief VAR check with Van Dijk's initial marker Anel Ahmedhodzic going down off the ball.

    But Liverpool's goal is quickly upheld.

  6. 'Nasty challenge from Endo'

    Sheffield United 0-0 Liverpool

    Alex Bruce
    Former Hull defender on BBC Radio 5 Live

    Nasty challenge from Endo, right in front of Chris Wilder. He's made his thoughts very obvious with the linesmen.

  7. YELLOW CARD

    Sheffield United 0-0 Liverpool

    It's all getting a tad dramatic at Brammal Lane.

    Liverpool have half a penalty shout as Mohamed Salah appears to be tripped in the penalty area.

    And on the break Wataru Endo breaks up a counter with a nasty slide tackle that sees him booked.

  8. Brighton 1-1 Brentford

    An argument about kicking the ball out for an injured Bryan Mbeumo ends in Brighton striker Joao Pedro's header ending in Mark Flekken's gloves.

  9. 'Fulham cut Forest open yet again'

    Fulham 2-0 Nottm Forest

    Stephen Kelly
    Former Tottenham defender on BBC Sport online

    Delighted for Jimenez.

    There's brilliant link up play between Willian, Pereira and Iwobi and Jimenez arrives at the right time in the box to finish. The ball sits up for him and he lifts it into the roof of the net.

    Fulham just cut Forest open again there.

  10. 'I expect Villa to hustle and chase down City'

    Aston Villa v Manchester City (20:15 GMT)

    Pat Nevin
    Former Scotland winger on BBC Radio 5 Live

    In the past teams have sat back against Man City, held them off for a while but then eventually been beaten.

    Did Chelsea sit back? No. Did Spurs sit back? No, they went for them. You need to go and hustle and chase them down, and when teams do, have a look at the goals that have gone in against them.

    I'm not saying City have been found out, that's too strong, but a lot of managers will realise that there is no point in sitting back. I expect Villa to do the same thing tonight.

  11. Crystal Palace 0-1 Bournemouth

    What a goal this would have been. Justin Kluivert gets the ball inside the centre circle and charges forwards with a great run.

    The Palace defenders aren't fast or good enough to stop him and the Bournemouth man strikes at goal but fires just wide of Sam Johnstone's goal.

  12. goal

    GOAL - Fulham 2-0 Nottingham Forest

    Raul Jimenez (34 mins)

    Two goals in four minutes and Fulham are now in total control.

    Andreas Pereira slips a pass beyond two defenders for Raúl Jiménez who runs on to the ball and smashes it into the top corner.

    Boom. Nottingham Forest are under all sorts of pressure.

  13. Varane out with back injury

    Man Utd v Chelsea (20:15 GMT)

    Simon Stone
    BBC Sport at Old Trafford

    Manchester United defender Raphael Varane is a surprise absentee - at least from Erik ten Hag's bench tonight.

    Apparently, the France World Cup winner has a sore back.

    I had Bournemouth as one of my favourites for relegation before the season kicked off, along with Luton & Sheffield United. Fair play to them, they're looking much more fluid recently with good results against Villa and Newcastle. It's early days but I can't see them being in much danger.

    Harry

  15. goal

    GOAL - Brighton 1-1 Brentford

    Pascal Gross (32 mins)

    What a strike.

    Kaoru Mitoma pulls the ball back to Pascal Gross, who takes one touch on the edge of the box and then pings a beauty into the bottom corner. Mark Flekken didn't move.

    Brentford's lead lasted five minutes.

  16. Haaland in generous mood

    Aston Villa v Manchester City (20:15 GMT)

    Phil McNulty
    BBC Sport chief football writer at Villa Park

    One lucky young Aston Villa fan is beaming with delight after Manchester City striker Erling Haaland stopped to present her with his training top before walking down the tunnel here at Villa Park.

  17. 'A brilliant goal all round'

    Fulham 1-0 Nottm Forest

    Stephen Kelly
    Former Tottenham defender on BBC Sport online

    That is a sensational goal from start to finish.

    Cairney's turn in the middle of the park to open his body and drive away from the Forest midfield is wonderful.

    He then feeds Willian on the edge of the box, who produces a delicate pass for Iwobi at the far post to tap home.

    A brilliant goal all round.

  18. 'Forest giving the ball away too easily'

    Fulham 1-0 Nottm Forest

    Stephen Kelly
    Former Tottenham defender on BBC Sport online

    Forest have been too eager in presenting the ball back to Fulham at times so far in this first half.

    If they are to get more into this game they need to hold the ball up better, at least give themselves a chance of it sticking so they can get up the pitch.

  19. Crystal Palace 0-1 Bournemouth

    Palace looking disorganised at the back and Luis Sinisterra is unmarked 12 yards out and free to head at goal. He manages to twist and get some power on the header but at the cost of any accuracy.

  20. Brighton 0-1 Brentford

    Bryan Mbeumo has now been involved in six goals in his last seven Premier League appearances (three goals, three assists).

    He has scored seven Premier League goals for Brentford this season.
