Kick Off
All three games are back underway!
- Everton 2-0 Leeds
- Watford 0-1 Brighton
- Brentford 0-0 Crystal Palace
Half Time – Brentford 0-0 Crystal Palace
A fairly even game so far.
The best goalscoring opportunity fell to Janelt in the 39th minute – his shot from close range was blocked.
Half Time – Watford 0-1 Brighton
The Seagulls deservedly took the lead late in the first half with a fantastic goal from Maupay.
The striker has now levelled Glen Murray’s record as the highest scoring Brighton player in the Premier League with 26 goals.
Watford are still yet to score a goal under Roy Hodgson.

Half Time – Everton 2-0 Leeds
Everton fans will be very happy with that first half performance.
The Toffees have dominated throughout and are proving to be a real threat.
Leeds really need to turn things around in the second half if they want to get anything from this game because it doesn’t look like Everton will slow down any time soon.

Maupay breaks the deadlock just before half time!
The striker receives the ball just inside the penalty area, he takes a touch before striking with a half-volley into the corner of the goal.
Poor defending from Watford.
Watford 0-1 Brighton
40. Everton 2-0 Leeds
Everton continue to dominate and are on the hunt for a third goal.
Gordon and Iwobi have been causing problems along both sides.
Leeds are certainly on the back foot.
Five minutes to go until half time.
34. Brentford 0-0 Crystal Palace
The biggest talking point of the game so far has been a controversial penalty decision.
A cross was sent into the Crystal Palace penalty area but Guehi appeared to make contact with his hand.
The referee denied Brentford’s penalty claims due to a foul in the build-up.

Keane doubles the lead!
Gordon sends a corner into the box, it finds Keane who rises above the Leeds defence before heading the ball past Meslier and into the goal.
Everton 2-0 Leeds
23. Watford 0-0 Brighton
Brighton have dominated the game so far.
Maupay and Gross have had some good opportunities to break the deadlock, but the score is still level.
19. Everton 1-0 Leeds
Stuart Dallas was forced off with an injury in the early stages of the game.
He has been replaced by Leo Hjelde.
10. GOOOOAAAAAALLLLLL EVERTON!!!!!!
Coleman puts the Toffees ahead with a header from close range!
What a start!
Everton 1-0 Leeds
Kick Off
All three games are underway!
Southampton hold Man Utd to a point
The Red Devils dropped points again after they were held to a 1-1 draw by Southampton.
Jadon Sancho’s first-half goal was cancelled out by a Che Adams equaliser just after half time.
It marked Man Utd’s third 1-1 draw in three games.
Credit: Getty Welcome to Watford, Roy!
Roy Hodgson takes charge of Watford for the first time at Vicarage Road today.
The 74-year old has not had the best start at the Hornets, with a defeat to West Ham on Tuesday and a 0-0 draw with Burnley last weekend.
Watford will need to get at least a point from this game to help in their fight for Premier League survival.
