Phil Foden has been excellent today as usual and he is my man of the match.

A glimmer of hope for Burnley because there will be nine minutes of stoppage time.

Dean Smith
Former Aston Villa manager on BBC Radio 5 LiveGreat penalty from Douglas Luiz. That's one that the goalkeeper doesn't stop.
I was just watching Ezri Konsa and he just fell to his knees such is the relief in getting that goal.

GOAL - Aston Villa 3-2 Burnleypublished at 16:53 Greenwich Mean Time 30 December 2023
Douglas Luiz pen (89 mins)
Aston Villa are back in front!
Oooh Douglas Luiz is a little fortunate. He doesn't look confident, takes ages to start his run up but his spot kick hits the underside of the bar and goes in.
Relief for Villa as they look to have snatched the three points, despite a valiant effort by Burnley.

Crystal Palace 3-1 Brentford
What a save from Dean Henderson!
A low cross is almost deflected in by Neal Maupay but the Palace goalkeeper claws it off the goalline.
FULL-TIMEpublished at 16:52 Greenwich Mean Time 30 December 2023
Man City 2-0 Sheff Utd
That's that!
Manchester City finish off 2023 with victory at home which means they are unbeaten in 2023 at the Etihad.
Pep Guardiola's side could, and probably should, have had more goals but they've got the job done here and that moves them up to second in the Premier League on goal difference.

PENALTY TO ASTON VILLApublished at 16:50 Greenwich Mean Time 30 December 2023

Big chance for the hosts to seal the three points.

Man City 2-0 Sheff Utd
It's turned into walking football as both sides just wait for the whistle. Sheffield United clearly can't wait for this one to be over.

Wolves 3-0 Everton
Pedro Neto skies it after breaking down the left. He did all the hard work but the shot was an awful one.

Man City 2-0 Sheff Utd
Sheffield United venture into the Manchester City half for the first time this match but they are quickly pushed back, much to the frustration of the travelling Blades fans.
Sheffield United try again but the effort from just outside the area is blocked by Josko Gvardiol.

Aston Villa 2-2 Burnley
Dean Smith
Former Aston Villa manager on BBC Radio 5 LiveHe is one that you would have felt would have taken those second-half chances as well.
It's been Diaby both times who should have probably scored with both chances he had.

Wolves 3-0 Everton
Jose Sa is closed down by Beto and is fortunate his clearance deflects out for a throw-in.
He immediately apologises to his team-mates.

Olise is very shrewd. He rejected the Chelsea debacle and instead of getting 12 minutes a game and playing out of position with a bunch of misfits, he's the star player winning games for a hard working and well balanced Palace team. By summer, he could be off to a bigger, better club than Chelsea.

Crystal Palace 3-1 Brentford
A late surge from Brentford but Yoanne Wissa is isolated. They have had plenty of the ball in the last 10 minutes but haven't made the most of it.
Saman Ghoddos' latest cross curls straight into Dean Henderson's arms.

Keane needs some confidence, looks nervous out there, he’s a great player when on his game, possibly our best centre half.
