The result means Chelsea missed the chance to go top, ahead of Liverpool's game tomorrow with Burnley. Don't forget we also have the Manchester Derby. We will see you again tomorrow!


FULL-TIME: Brentford 2-2 Chelsea


OneFootball Videos


And that's yet another draw between these two London rivals. Brentford took their moments, while scarce, as they arrived after two Chelsea quality moments.


Here's a look at the reaction from the late, late, equaliser.


GOAL! 90+4' Brentford 2-2 Chelsea

Seemingly out of nothing, the Bees pull one back. A long throw somehow evades every Chelsea player in the box and the ball falls to an unmarked Fabio Carvalho who pokes home at the back post to equalise.


Oh wow!


Brentford only have themselves to blame here, really, with only two shots on target all game. Can't sit back against a team like this Chelsea side.


Look what it means for the former Manchester United man.


GOAL! 87' Brentford 1-2 Chelsea

It was surely coming. New signing Alejandro Garnacho crosses the ball and it finds Moises Caicedo, who first gets caught up with his feet but then finds composure and blasts home from just outside the box.


Could and should have been another there for the Blues. Joã Pedro takes the ball down the right side, and instead of shooting himself, cuts the ball back to Cole Palmer. A lunging Caoimhin Kelleher saved his shot.


Welcome back, Ice Cole.


Surprisingly, this was Palmer's first league goal from open play since January!


GOAL! 61' Brentford 1-1 Chelsea

The hosts were doing well to sit back and soak up Chelsea's pressure, but Cole Palmer was left unmarked in the right place at the right time to volley home. Instant impact.


The Ice Man has been called from the bench. Will Cole Palmer bring in the spark Chelsea desperately need?


Things appear to be getting a little tense now, with Moises Caicedo shoving goal scorer Kevin Schade over. Game continues.


SECOND HALF UNDERWAY!

Let's see what happens in the final bit of Premier League action this weekend.


Plenty of changes for Chelsea at the break, with Reece James, Marc Cucurella and Tyrique George coming on.



HALF-TIME - Brentford 1-0 Chelsea

That's a dreary first half done now, besides a blip of action with the goal. Surely it won't stay the same after the break?


João Pedro was trying to find space in the box, but ultimately shifted the ball to Enzo Fernandes who scuffed his shot short. Nothing genuinely threatening from that spell.


Nobody wearing Blue is doing any pressing here. Maresca will surely have something to say about that at half-time.


Here's a look at that Henderson assist.


GOAL! 35' Brentford 1-0 Chelsea

And virtually out of nowhere, Kevin Schade breaks the deadlock. A ball over the top from Jordan Henderson is received comfortably and he remains composed enough  to twist Tosin Adarabioyo and roll home.


Still no shot on target for either side after 20 minutes.


Surprisingly it's Caoimhin Kelleher who has seen a lot of the ball, he's cutting out Chelsea crosses into the box before they can even become a tiny threat.


João Pedro has been lively for the visitors, seeing an effort blocked by Sepp Van den Berg. Down at the other end, Kevin Schade saw a shot blocked by Tosin Adarabioyo.


One thing is Chelsea star Cole Palmer is on the bench tonight. Here's what head coach Maresca had to say about that.


KICK OFF!

And we're underway now at Gtech Community Stadium.


And finally, our last clash of the day sees Brentford host Chelsea late on Saturday. Who do you have, the Bees or the Blues?


Oh no Potter


FULL TIME: West Ham 0-3 Spurs

It's a scoreline the hosts wouldn't have come back from, to be honest. Tottenham sit in the top three and Graham Potter's Hammers are in the bottom three. What a dramatic London debry.


Kudus came close to adding more misery tonight for his former club. The Tottenham star squanders his chance to go and find the fourth. That's one sigh of relief for West Ham.


Home is not a cozy place right now for the Hammers.


In a twist of events, Spurs are actually sitting back and just mindlessly passing the ball around. London Stadium looks empty right now.


Here's a look at the challenge from Soucek.


The home fans will appreciate that it's quieted down now. Some 15 minutes to go. Tottenham will want to add more goals here for sure.


GOAL! 63' West Ham 0-3 Spurs

Obviously the visitors are roaring with confidence now. It's Micky van de Ven drills home a loose ball in the box into the bottom left corner.


GOAL! 57' West Ham 0-2 Spurs

And now with the man advantage it's Tottenham who strike again. Lucas Bergvall heads home a second.


RED CARD - 54' Tomas Soucek

Ugh oh. That's an implosion from West Ham. Tomas Soucek is sent off for a studs up challenge, and knowingly walks off the pitch following the red card.


Just look at what it means!


GOAL! 47' - West Ham 0-1 Spurs

Thomas Frank must have had a real half-time talk because two minutes in, Pape Matar Sarr heads the ball home. Some awfully flat-footed defending from the Hammers on the corner.


SECOND HALF UNDERWAY!

Off to a quick start here as Bown has a crack after 40 seconds but not enough power on it. Who will find the breakthrough?


Here's a look at the first half by the numbers.


HALF-TIME

With the same amount of controversies as shots on goal, it's all level here at 0-0 by the break.


Micky Van de Ven was pushed down in the box, the same way Kyle Walker Peters was earlier, but no penalty is given. Spurs are seriously unimpressed.


Now we have some more controversy. Kinda repeating the same instance from earlier in the game.


We're seeing new signing Xavi Simons have a bit of the ball. Might he be able to pull something out of nothing?


And here's a look at the incident. Romero pushing Kyle Walker-Peters down to the ground. Was it the right call?


It's been a back-and-forth affair here, with Spurs getting the ball in the back of the net, but VAR has disallowed Cristian Romero's header.


But the best chance of the match after 15-minutes has arrived at the other end. It's Lucas Paqueta who dragged a shot marginally wide.


It's Tottenham's Mohammed Kudus who looks very lively, though he's receiving plenty of jeers and boos from his once home side.


KICK OFF!

And here we go inside London Stadium.


Could Jarrod Bowen be the difference maker today?


And we still have more! Coming up next, it's West Ham welcoming London rivals Tottenham to their side of town.


FULL TIME: NEWCASTLE 1-0 WOLVES

Woltemade announces himself to the St James' Park faithful with a match-winning first-half header.


FULL TIME: BOURNEMOUTH 2-1 BRIGHTON

FULL TIME: CRYSTAL PALACE 0-0 SUNDERLAND

Palace pushed late on but couldn't find a way past the in-form Robin Roefs, who produced several top saves.


FULL TIME: EVERTON 0-0 ASTON VILLA

Martinez's excellent save from Keane's header saved the Villans from defeat.


FULL TIME: FULHAM 1-0 LEEDS

That late Gudmundsson own goal gives Fulham their first win of the season.


GOAL FULHAM!

Surely there's a winner at Craven Cottage at the death as Gabriel Gudmundsson puts the ball into his own net from a Fulham corner.


ANOTHER PALACE CHANCE

Kamada takes a pot shot from a long way out. It's heading towards goal and forces Roefs into yet another excellent save.

Best chance of the game for the Cottagers as Harry Wilson's free-kick is heading towards the top corner. Karl Darlow, making his first start in four years, produces a vital reaction save to keep the score level.


Brighton have made a blistering start to the second period and Welbeck's half volley is a whisker away from finding the bottom corner.



CHANCES FOR PALACE

Quickfire opportunities for the hosts with Jean Philippe Mateta forcing Roefs into a save before Pino lashes over on the follow-up.


GOAAAL BRIGHTON

We're all square at the Vitality as Karou Mitoma meets Minteh's cross with a free header to pull the Seagulls back into this clash.


CLOSE EVERTON

A low pass is flashed towards Beto, who can't quite sort his feet out in time. He gets contact but sends the shot wide.


CHANCE LEEDS

The first big opportunity of the second half falls to Brenden Aaronson as the midfielder's near post attempt is kept out by Bernd Leno.


SECOND HALF

The Premier League action returns for the second 45. Will more goals arrive after half time?


'Hombre del partido'. Martin Zubimendi presented with Man of the Match award after Arsenal beat Nottingham Forest earlier.



HALF TIME: NEWCASTLE 1-0 WOLVES

Newcastle's new star striker gives the Magpies a deserved lead over Wolves, who started fast but faded as the half progressed.

OFF THE BAR!

Jacob Murphy wants to go from provider to scorer and tries his luck from a long way out, which goes just wide of the post.


CHANCE BRIGHTON

Yankuba Minteh bursts into the Bournemouth area and first a shot towards goal from a tight angle. Djordje Petrovic is alert and parries the shot to safety.

CHANCE EVERTON

The Toffees have been dominant in the first half and Keane heads over once again from a Grealish cross.


GOAL NEWCASTLE!

Nick Woltemade is off the mark for the Toon. The towering German meets Murohy’s cross with a thumping header down into the net. Worth every penny of the £69m.


GOAL BOURNEMOUTH!

Alex Scott gives the Cherries the lead with an excellent turn and shot into the net after Semenyo's assist.


CHANCE EVERTON

CHANCES FOR WOLVES!

A slow start under Postecoglou.


FULL TIME: ARSENAL 3-0 NOTTINGHAM FOREST

Four minutes of injury time remaining.

CHANCE ARSENAL!

He loves playing on home turf!


OFF THE BAR!

Madueke feeds in Gyökeres and the striker's first time shot from a tight angle thumps the frame of the goal.



CHANCE FOREST!

Against the run of play, Forest generate a half chance and Chris Wood's flick cannons off the crossbar. Bit of a warning sign for the Gunners.


GOOOAAL ARSENAL

Eze gets into the Forest box, squares to Viktor Gyökeres and the Arsenal striker has the simplest of tap-ins from close range.


SECOND HALF BEGINS

Back to it for the second period at the Emirates.


A constant threat..

Arsenal once again cause havoc from set pieces as Noni Noni Madueke's corner is headed wide by Gabriel.
