Huddersfield Town missed a chance to climb out of the Premier League relegation zone when they were held to a 1-1 home draw by West Ham United in an entertaining clash on Saturday.

The result left Huddersfield second-bottom on seven points from 12 games, a point behind Cardiff City, Southampton and Crystal Palace, who were later hosting Tottenham Hotspur.

Alex Pritchard gave Huddersfield a sixth-minute lead with a scuffed shot from 16 metres which somehow trickled past West Ham keeper Lukasz Fabianski before Felipe Anderson levelled for the London side with a fine 74th-minute goal.

Pritchard rued allowing West Ham to get back into the match.

Half Time: Newcastle 2-1 Bournemouth

What a half at St James' Park, well for everyone apart from Adam Smith, who seems to have suffered a serious injury, which led to eight minutes being added on at the end of the half.

The hosts however have done well and a double from Salomon Rondon gave them a two-goal advantage before Jefferson Lerma reduced the deficit in the sixth minute of added time.

We're back underway in three of the four 3pm games, with Newcastle and Bournemouth going into eight minutes of added time at the end of the first half following Adam Smith's horror injury.

47 min: Southampton 1-0 Watford

Manolo Gabbiadini's confidence has clearly sky rocketed since his goal. This time he tries a long-range effort which goes just wide of the goal frame.

47 min: Huddersfield 1-0 West Ham

The Hammers were not at their best in the second half, which has forced Manuel Pellegrini into a half-time change, with Chicharito replacing Diagana. 

The Mexican nearly makes an instant impact, but after being denied by Lossl, he heads the rebound over.

51 min: Leicester 0-0 Burnley 

Joe Hart has had to be on his toes today, and his services are required again after a deflected effort from Marc Albrighton looks to be creeping in.

46 min: Newcastle 2-1 Bournemouth 

A second change for Bournemouth, with Dan Gosling replacing goalscorer Jefferson Lerma. Curious, but we're back underway in the north east.

55 min: Leicester 0-0 Burnley

A substitution for the visitors, with Steven Defour, who seems to have picked ujp a knock following a challenge with Ben Chilwell, being replaced by Jeff Hendricks.

57 min: Southampton 1-0 Watford

Very little to shout about at St Mary's in the second half, with Watford still struggling to get that final ball right despite their excellent build up to the penalty area.

58 min: Huddersfield 1-0 West Ham

A strange tactic from the hosts, who have dropped deeper into their half and have invited West Ham onto them. Nothing so far to cause too many alarms though.
