Just five minutes to go until kickoff. The focus will largely be at Anfield to see how Jurgen Klopp's men react to City's resurgence, but there are a whole load of intriguing battles taking place across the grounds.

The Marco Silva derby takes place at Vicarage Road, while Unai Emery is under similar pressure with his side more defensive than usual at bottom club Huddersfield.

So who will the pressure build on today?

4 min: Watford 0-0 Everton

A good chance for the visitors to assert some early pressure, but Gylfi Sigurdsson's 50-yard free-kick is staright into the hands of Ben Foster.

6 min: Southampton 0-0 Cardiff

An emotional afternoon on the south coast for the visitors after the passing of Emiliano Sala, but neither side has taken the initiative so far.

Bournemouth are not holding back here, having two efforts on goal in the opening ten minutes. 

Nothing yet from the hosts.

9 min: Huddersfield 0-0 Arsenal

Jan Siewert's side are well up for this. They have started well in the opening exchanges but the Gunners are looking to pose a threat through Alexandre Lacazette.

10 min: Watford 0-0 Everton

Lively start at Vicarage Road, where Jordan Pickford knows little about it, but he denies Etienne Capoue following the Frenchman's powerful strike from six yards out.
