Premier League weekend round-up

Mauricio Pochettino's Tottenham are playing Fulham at what they thought would be their last game at Wembley before moving into their new stadium. Spurs beat Newcastle 2-1 in their first Premier Legaue game and face Slavisa Jokanovic's side which will be looking for a win after being beaten 2-0 against Crystal Palace on their return to the Premier League.

Everton and Southampton are looking to turn opening weekend draws into wins, while West Ham also search for their first win and face Bournemouth.

Leicester City will try and bounce back from their 2-1 defeat against Manchester United with a positive result against Wolves.

Tottenham 0-0 Fulham

6: It should really be 1-0 to Tottenham. Lucas Moura heads Davies' cross wide from very close range. The ball was fired at him and he had an open net to nod into but headed wide.

Harry Kane then puts the ball in the back of the net but it is ruled out for a foul on the goalkeeper. Moura challenged with Fabri for the ball and left a boot in which caught the keeper's head.

Fulham are looking alarmingly open at the back.

Siggurdsson touches a free kick to Baines who moves the ball on. Schneiderlin flicks it onto Walcott, who finishes it off.

15: Spurs break forward with Eriksen and Kane against two defenders. The Dane switches play to Kane who takes the ball into the box, then goes to ground under Fosu-Mensah's challenge, but nothing is given.

Everton 1-0 Southampton

25: Almost an embarrassing moment for Pickford. The England international fumbles Soares' shot but makes up for his mistake by saving well from Ings.

West Ham 0-0 Bournemouth

25: Great save from Fabianski! This is well worth another look. Brooks moves the ball onto Wilson who tries to round the West Ham goalkeeper but is denied. 

Shortly before, Arnautovic and Hernandez combine on the edge of the box and the Mexican has an effort well saved.

Leicester 1-0 Wovles

28: An own goal breaks the deadlock at the King Power stadium. Against the run of play, Albrighton breaks forward and a cross comes off Coady and hits Doherty on it's way into the Wolves net.

West Ham 1-0 Bournemouth

32: Arnautovic scores from the spot!

Ake catches Hernandez in the box and the referee, Stuard Attwell, consults the linesman and points to the spot. 

Arnautovic fires a low shot from the spot to the right of Begovic and West Ham take the lead.

Tottenham 0-0 Fulham

34: Better from Fulham who are beginning to get back into the game. Cairney had a good shot well saved by Lloris, but it is the Fulham goalkeeper who is now called into action.

Eriksen tries to catch Fabri out with a near post strike but the goalkeeper deals with the danger.
