GOAL! Huddersfield Town 2-0 Man Utd (Depoitre 33)
No, really. Huddersfield double their lead against Manchester United, following an appalling piece of defending from Victor Lindelof, who had just come on for the injured Phil Jones. Lindelof misjudged the flight of a long ball, completely missed it with his attempted clearance and allowed Laurent Depoitre in behind him to score. Jose Mourinho won’t be enjoying this.

It was a soft penalty - Bernardo Silvo appeared to dive under a challenge from Nick Pope, prompting a bit of a scuffle that led to Leroy Sane and Jeff Hendrick getting booked. Once the situation had been diffused, Aguero made no mistake.

Having been two goals down against a Watford side that squandered several opportunities to wrap up the game, Chelsea have just triumphed 4-2 at Stamford Bridge. Michy Batshuayi came off the bench to make it 2-2, before Cesar Azpilicueta headed Chelsea into the lead. Batshuayi popped up again deep in injury time to give Chelsea a two-goal winning margin that looked most unlikely 30 minutes ago.

Ipswich Town and Norwich City are the only Championship sides not playing today - they meet in the first Old Farm derby at Portman Road tomorrow afternoon. Here’s what we can look forward to this afternoon.
Today's Premier League fixtures
Chelsea are currently entertaining Watford at Stamford Bridge, where it’s currently 2-1 to Marco Silva’s visitors after 55 minutes. They came from a goal down to go ahead and should have put the game well beyond a Chelsea team that is defending very poorly. Two missed sitters (and I mean sitters) have kept the champions in the game. Here are the rest of today’s top flight match-ups.
It's Saturday - hip-hip hooray!
Good afternoon one and all. It’s that time of the week again and in this afternoon’s clockwatch we’ll be keeping tabs on all the Premier League action, bringing you team line-ups, build-up and news of all the goals as they go in around the UK and beyond in the day’s 3pm (BST) kick-offs.
