Still desirous of Premier League action? Tim de Lisle is covering events at Selhurst Park right now. Thanks for reading this Clockwatch. FULL TIME: Aston Villa 3-1 Wolverhampton Wanderers. Ben Fisher was at Villa Park. FULL TIME: Leicester City 1-1 Everton. Peter Lansley braved the weather at the King Power. FULL TIME: Southampton 1-1 Ipswich. Sam Morsy snatched a point at the death for the Tractor Boys. FULL TIME: Fulham 3-1 Newcastle United. Taha Hashim reports from Craven Cottage. FULL TIME: Tottenham Hotspur 3-1 Brentford. Julian Taylor on Tottenham’s “triumph of patience.” FULL TIME: Liverpool 3-0 Bournemouth. Will Unwin’s verdict from Anfield. FULL TIME: West Ham United 0-3 Chelsea. John Brewin reports from the London Stadium. Premier League reports are on their way … but in the meantime here’s a reminder that there’s still one match to be played this evening. Tim de Lisle has everything you need to know. … and this is how the Championship stands. Here’s how the Premier League looks after the 3pm kick-offs. FULL TIME: Aston Villa 3-1 Wolves Villa go third, for this evening at least. It’s their best start to a Premier League campaign since 1999. Tonight they’re gonna party. Wolves meanwhile drop to the bottom of the Premier League. The Championship full-times … Bristol City 2-1 Oxford United Burnley 2-1 Portsmouth Cardiff City 0-2 Leeds United Coventry City 1-2 Swansea City Luton Town 2-1 Sheffield Wednesday Sheffield United 1-0 Derby County West Bromwich Albion 1-0 Plymouth Argyle … and in the Scottish Premiership … Ross County 3-3 St Johnstone St Mirren 2-1 Heart of Midlothian St Johnstone ship two late goals to give up as many points in Dingwall. Meanwhile St Mirren hold on against Hearts. “Steven Naismith’s jacket is on a shoogly peg,” observes Simon McMahon. FULL TIME: Leicester City 1-1 Everton Everton claim their first point of the season, as another relegation six-pointer ends all-square. GOAL! Aston Villa 3-1 Wolves (Duran 90+4) Just the 13 minutes of added time at Villa Park … but there shouldn’t be any late drama, because Morgan Rogers crosses and tees up Jhon Durán, who now has five goals in his last six games. FULL TIME: Southampton 1-1 Ipswich Heartbreak for Saints, relief for Ipswich in this relegation six-pointer. FULL TIME: Tottenham Hotspur 3-1 Brentford Brentford scored after 23 seconds, dragging their feet somewhat after last week’s 22-second opener. But it was all downhill for the Bees after that. FULL TIME: Fulham 3-1 Newcastle There goes Newcastle’s unbeaten Premier League record. FULL TIME: Liverpool 3-0 Bournemouth Liverpool go top of the Premier League, though they’ll only stay there for 25 hours. GOAL! Southampton 1-1 Ipswich (Morsy 90+5) Deep into injury time, Sam Morsy whistles a shot past a startled Aaron Ramsdale and Southampton’s dream of a first win of the season goes up in smoke! GOAL! Aston Villa 2-1 Wolves (Konsa 88) Ezri Konsa taps home from close range to snatch the points for Villa! GOAL! Fulham 3-1 Newcastle (Nelson 90+2) Bruno Guimarães ships possession on the edge of his own box, and Reiss Nelson secures the points for Fulham. GOAL! Tottenham Hotspur 3-1 Brentford (Maddison 85) For the second week running, Brentford’s super-fast start turns to dust. James Maddison dinks over Mark Flekken to seal the deal for Spurs. GOAL! Aston Villa 1-1 Wolves (Watkins 73) That aforementioned Ollie Watkins header was Villa’s first effort on target. Number two flies into the net, with the help of a slight deflection. GOAL! Leicester 1-1 Everton (Mavididi 73) Yep, they were getting closer all right. Stephy Mavididi converts Harry Winks’ corner and the Foxes are level at long last. Leicester 0-1 Everton. Caleb Okoli heads Stephy Mavididi’s cross over from close range. Everton aren’t exactly hanging on, but Leicester are getting closer. Aston Villa 0-1 Wolves. Ollie Watkins has a header cleared off the line. Otherwise, Villa haven’t done much in attack this afternoon. Liverpool 3-0 Bournemouth. Federico Chiesa is on for Liverpool, making his Premier League debut. Some news of Harry Kane. He scored four against Dinamo Zagreb during the week, with Bayern Munich routing the Croatian side 9-2 in the Champions League. Just the one today, as Bayern win 5-0 at Werder Bremen, but he also set up a couple, for Michael Olise and Serge Gnabry. Another good day at the office for the England captain. Tottenham Hotspur 2-1 Brentford. Spurs keeper Vicario fumbles a cross, then handles outside his area. The referee however waves play on, then books both Kristoffer Ajer and Thomas Frank for making an understandable fuss about it. Liverpool 3-0 Bournemouth. Antoine Semenyo, denied an opener by VAR, gets another effort on target, but Caoimhin Kelleher saves without fuss. “Glad to see Darwin and Diaz getting time,” begins Richard McGahey, “but up 3-0 why not rest Salah and Sobo or Mac, give Chiesa and Jones some time, Quansah as well for the often-injured Konate? I like Slot, but he is going to run these guys into the ground before the season ends.” Liverpool 3-0 Bournemouth. Trent Alexander-Arnold’s cross flicks off the arm of Julian Araujo, but the defender’s arm was in a natural position and so the referee waves play on. Fulham 2-1 Newcastle. Fulham have responded well to conceding. Alex Iwobi and Raúl Jiménez both test Nick Pope. Leicester 0-1 Everton. A 21-minute half-time break comes to an end. The groundstaff have done what they can to the pitch, but stopping the rain is above and beyond their remit. Fulham 2-1 Newcastle. That goal came about thanks to Eddie Howe’s half-time change. He took off Joe Willock and sent on Jacob Murphy, who set up Harvey Barnes with pretty much his first touch. An assist for the manager, sort of. GOAL! Fulham 2-1 Newcastle (Barnes 46) An instant lifeline for Newcastle at Craven Cottage. Harvey Barnes halves their deficit just after the restart. Leicester 0-1 Everton. The Toffees leading as we go into the second half. But is Gary Naylor happy? Not exactly. “Young, Keane and Tarkowski? Has a Premier League team ever sent out a slower back line? Forces Everton into the lowest of low blocks and isolates DCL up front whose confidence plummets further. How has it come to this?” Half-time postbag. “I see it’s going great guns for last season’s promoted trio,” observes Jeremy Boyce wryly. “Play-off climbers Saints leading against fellow cannon-fodder Tractor Boys, Leicester falling behind to the giants of Everton. I’m a NastyLeeds man til I die, and I’m beginning to wonder if losing to Saints at Wembley wasn’t a bad plan. Better off challenging for the Holy Land than suffering week-in week-out in the purgatory of the relegation battle.” The Championship half-times … Bristol City 0-1 Oxford United Burnley 0-1 Portsmouth Cardiff City 0-1 Leeds United Coventry City 1-2 Swansea City Luton Town 0-0 Sheffield Wednesday Sheffield United 0-0 Derby County West Bromwich Albion 0-0 Plymouth Argyle … and in the Scottish Premiership … Ross County 1-1 St Johnstone St Mirren 2-1 Heart of Midlothian Simon McMahon reports: “Hearts, bottom of the table at start of play, remain there as they trail 2-1 at St Mirren after the first 45, while Ross County, who took an early lead against St Johnstone, have been pegged back to 1-1 at the break. The Perth side haven’t won in the league after conceding first for 37 games, the last time it happened being against County in December 2022. So something for both sides to cling to in the second half.” Does this picture do justice to the torrential nonsense at the King Power? Not really, no, but it’ll have to do. Rain coming down in stair-rods at the moment. Hail also. Premier League half-times Aston Villa 0-1 Wolverhampton Wanderers Fulham 2-0 Newcastle United Leicester City 0-1 Everton Liverpool 3-0 Bournemouth Southampton 1-0 Ipswich Town Tottenham Hotspur 2-1 Brentford Leicester 0-1 Everton. Dominic Calvert-Lewin goes over in the box under pressure from Victor Kristiansen, but the referee’s not interested. No penalty. Then Jesper Lindstrøm shoots over. Everton coming dangerously close to another of those two-goal leads they so enjoy. GOAL! Liverpool 3-0 Bournemouth (Nunez 37) Darwin Nunez ends his 14-game goalscoring drought for Liverpool … with a pearler from distance, cutting in from the right and sticking the ball in the far corner. Leicester 0-1 Everton. … so having said that, Jamie Vardy lands awkwardly and hammers the turf in a mixture of pain and frustration. On come the medics. Happily, he’s soon back in the thick of the action. Lightning along with the torrential rain now. Memories of this Filbert Street classic … Leicester 0-1 Everton. It’s raining quite a lot in the midlands. Otherwise, nothing much to report. GOAL! Liverpool 2-0 Bournemouth (Diaz 28) Two in as many minutes for Luis Diaz, who now has five Premier League goals in as many games this season. GOAL! Tottenham Hotspur 2-1 Brentford (Johnson 28) Brennan Johnson shot wide moments earlier; he hits the target this time. GOAL! Liverpool 1-0 Bournemouth (Diaz 26) Luis Diaz is sent scampering clear by Ibrahima Konaté. He rounds Kepa to give the Reds the lead. GOAL! Aston Villa 0-1 Wolves (Cunha 25) Wolves have been on top for the most part, and they get their reward through Matheus Cunha. GOAL! Fulham 2-0 Newcastle (Smith Rowe 22) Emile Smith Rowe has already hit the woodwork; he’s now squeezed the ball past Nick Pope to double Fulham’s lead down by the Thames. Leicester 0-1 Everton. “Delighted Everton have taken the lead," writes Caelan Hagan. “Just praying we don’t score a second.” You’ll be pleased to hear Jesper Lindstrøm has just shot wide, then. Liverpool 0-0 Bournemouth. Alexis Mac Allister half-volleys a peach of a pass down the middle of the park to release Mohamed Salah, whose shot from the edge of the box is turned around the post by Kepa. Aston Villa 0-0 Wolves. Another tribute to Gary Shaw, as the Villa Park faithful applaud in the eighth minute to remember the local lad who wore the No8 shirt for the club he loved. Fulham 1-0 Newcastle. The hosts are very much on top at the Cottage. Emile Smith Rowe rattles the frame of the goal. Newcastle, who have made their best start in the Premier League since the glory days of Kevin Keegan in 1995, need to get their gamefaces on and quick. GOAL! Leicester 0-1 Everton (Ndiaye 12) Iliman Ndiaye exchanges passes with Ashley Young before opening the scoring for rock-bottom Everton. A big relegation six-pointer this. Scotland, then. “Only two games in the SPL today due to it being Scottish League Cup quarter final weekend, but let’s not go there,” begins Simon McMahon. “Who wants to win that anyway? Certainly not Dundee United, who will have to content themselves with a league and Scottish Cup double this season. Ross County v managerless St Johnstone and St Mirren v possibly soon to be managerless Hearts are the games. Think I’ll watch the cricket.” GOAL! Tottenham Hotspur 1-1 Brentford (Solanke 8) Dominic Solanke follows up James Maddison’s shot to notch his first goal for his new club. In other news, Bryan Mbeumo’s opener has been officially timed by Opta as 23 seconds, so there goes that symmetry. Killjoys. GOAL! Fulham 1-0 Newcastle (Jimenez 5) Raul Jimenez swivels and puts the hosts ahead at the Cottage. GOAL! Southampton 1-0 Ipswich (Dibling 5) Tyler Dibling, full of promise at 18, scores his first Premier League goal. “He’s one of our own!” trill the St Mary’s faithful. NO GOAL. Liverpool 0-0 Bournemouth Ah no, an offside in the build-up. As you were. GOAL! Liverpool 0-1 Bournemouth (Semenyo 4) A dismal start for Alisson’s replacement Caoimhín Kelleher, as Antoine Semenyo opens the scoring at Anfield! Tottenham Hotspur 0-1 Brentford. Brentford have now scored after exactly 22 seconds in consecutive Premier League matches. A funny old game, as a former Spurs striker once noted. GOAL! Tottenham Hotspur 0-1 Brentford (Mbeumo 22 secs) A goal straight from kick-off in N17! Keane Lewis-Potter crosses, Bryan Mbeumo volleys, Ange Postecoglou’s woes increase! It’s Saturday 3pm! Whistles all across the land. Here we go, then. FULL TIME: West Ham United 0-3 Chelsea. John Brewin was at the London Stadium to witness Nicolas Jackson and Cole Palmer give the hosts a good going-over. Here’s his report. There’s also an early batch of results in from the Championship … Norwich City 4-1 Watford QPR 1-1 Millwall Sunderland 1-0 Middlesbrough … and League One … Exeter City 2-0 Stevenage Lincoln City 0-0 Wigan … and finally League Two. Accrington Stanley 2-2 Port Vale Chesterfield 1-1 Cheltenham That result means Chelsea go second, for a couple of hours at least. West Ham have lost their first three home matches of the season for the first time in their 129-year history. FULL TIME: West Ham United 0-3 Chelsea. Julen Lopetegui hasn’t had much of a honeymoon period in his new job as Hammers coach, if at all. His team have been thoroughly outclassed by in-form Chelsea, who are in no way flattered by this scoreline. It could have been more. David Tindall lays out the details in minute-by-minute style as the hosts are booed off. GARY SHAW (1961-2024). Aston Villa have already dedicated their win at Young Boys to the beloved star of the team that won the 1981 title, the 1982 European Cup and the 1982 Super Cup. Shaw has also been honoured at Villa Park today by another club legend. Team news: Tottenham v Brentford Spurs are unchanged despite defeat in last weekend’s north London derby.
