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.

Leicester 2-0 Wolves

50: Wolves introduce Traore and he is already looking threatening. He produces a handful of crosses and Jimenez has a shot blocked.

Tottenham 1-1 Fulham

MITROOOO

52: Aleksandar Mitrovic opens his Premier League for Fulham with a bizarre goal at Wembley. 

Joe Bryan's cross to the back post is played across goal by Sessegnon, who finds Mirtovic who is on the floor for some reason and nods in.

Everton 2-1 Southampton

54: Danny Ings is unmarked in the middle and he taps in his first goal for Southampton and he may not get many easier chances. Lemina headed on from a corner and Ings reacted quickest to score.

West Ham 1-0 Bournemouth

56: There should have been a second penalty at the London Stadium. Noble clatters into Fraser inside the penalty area and brings him down. The Cherries are adamant they should have a penalty but the referee ignores their protests. The West Ham captain is very fortunate there.

West Ham 1-1 Bournemouth

59: Callum Wilson equalises against West Ham, and it's a great goal. He collects the ball inside just past the halfway line then starts his run towards goal. He works his way through the defence and tucks a neat finish under Fabianski.

West Ham 1-2 Bournemouth

65: Oh no, West Ham have fallen apart. From a set piece, Steve Cook rises above Ogbonna, who is not overly interested in defending, and heads in to net to complete a quick turn around. Who didn't see this coming.

Leicester 2-0 Wolves

65: Jamie Vardy is given his marching orders and is sent off for a high tackle on Doherty. He wins a couple of 50-50 challenges, then follows through on a tackle and is dismissed. Leicetser have 25 minutes to hold onto their two goal lead.

Everton 2-1 Southampton

66: Everton have the ball in the back of the net but it will not count. Walcott puts the ball past past McCarthy but the flag is up as Tosun is offside in the build up.

Tottenham 1-1 Fulham

71: Harry Kane goes close to breaking that August curse! Trippier whips a ball from deep and Kane hits the post from only a couple of yards out, he has to score that!

Tottenham 2-1 Fulham

74: Kieran Trippier takes some of that fine England form into the Premier League. From a similar area to his goal against Croatia, the full back lines up a free kick and curls the effort over the wall and into the left corner. Fabri has no chance.
