Manchester City continued their unbeaten start tot he Premier league season, although the were not at their best against Bournemouth who gave them a scare at the Etihad Stadium. Callum Wilson's equaliser cancelled out Bernardo Silva's opener, but second-half goals from Raheem Sterling and Ilkay Gundogan secured victory for Pep Guardiola's side as they stretch their lead to five points at the top of the table.

West Ham recorded an emphatic victory at Newcastle as a Javier Hernandez double, plus a third from Felipe Anderson, secured a convincing 3-0 win, while Leicester got the better of Watford with Jamie Vary and James Maddison securing the three points.

Huddersfield saw Mathias Jorgensen's early goal go to waste as Steve Mounier saw red in the first half before Brighton overturned the score thanks to goals from Shane Duffy and Florin Andone, while Crystal Palace beat Burnley 2-0 with goals from James McArthur and Andros Townsend.

Newcastle vs West Ham

West Ham have troubles at the back, only Fulham (0) have kept fewer clean sheets than them in the Premier League this season (1).

Can Newcastle capitalise on this weakness?

Crystal Palace vs Burnley

Palace created a number of chances in their last game against Man Utd, but a lack of an out and out goalscorer cost them the win. 

Who will step up for them today?
