Tottenham 0-0 Brentford

Something of a damp start at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, but no boos yet, and no goals conceded, either.

Bournemouth 0-0 Chelsea

Kluivert is fouled, and there’s a penalty call, Tavernier having beaten Fernandez BUT another offside flag.

Goal disallowed for Bournemouth!

Semenyo had the ball in the net, from an offside position, and it took fully 90 seconds to rule Evanilson had mistimed his run. Chelsea got a bit lucky there.

Goal! Everton 1-0 Nottingham Forest (Milenkovic, 2 OG)

This game began like wildfire, with Savona booked for an early foul, and then Milenkovic deflected past his own keeper.

We are go in the Premier League...

The five 3pms have kicked off.

Louise Taylor is at Newcastle v Burnley.

“Despite the intermittent heavy showers Scott Parker has just walked across the pitch modelling a designer jumper of such Italianesque style that even Sandro Tonali, incidentally one of Parker’s midfield successors here, cast an apparently admiring glance in the Burnley manager’s direction.

“Tonali is still recovering from the knock he sustained against Spurs in mid week and begins on the bench as Eddie Howe, an ex Burnley manager, showcases a new look midfield featuring the lesser spotted Jacob Ramsey plus Joe Willock and Bruno Guimaraes.

“Joelinton is on the bench, where he is joined by Yoane Wissa. Newcastle fans hope Wissa will finallly make that long awaited , much delayed, debut today. Meanwhile there’s a recall for Fabian Schar in central defence while Dan Burn shifts to left back.

“It seems like only yesterday that they were playing in front of Martin Dubravka but the former Newcastle goalkeeper returns in Burnley colours today and still has not forgiven Howe for dropping him last season immediately after persuading him to sign a new contract and pull out of a move to Saudi Arabia at the 11th hour.”

Gary Naylor gets in touch: “Your photo up top looks less like Harry Kane and more like Ben Stokes - now there’s someone who really does need a miracle.”

Simon McMahon is our Caledonian correspondent: “Hi John. Only one game on anyone’s mind in Scotland today, Scotland v Haiti on June 13 St. Mirren v Dundee United in Paisley, where both teams are in need of the points following poor runs. United have drawn five of their last eight, and played well at home to Rangers on Wednesday only to concede a 96th minute equaliser to leave them in eight place, while St. Mirren could end the day bottom if they lose and Livingston win at Motherwell. Other games include Hibs v Falkirk and struggling Dundee v Aberdeen. “

Ben Fisher was at Villa Park to see a thrilling win.

Suzanne Wrack saw that narrow Arsenal win in the WSL.

Billy Munday

Billy is our man at Bournemouth today: “Cole Palmer makes his first league start for Chelsea since the opening day of the season in August. He is one of six changes that Enzo Maresca has made from the defeat at Leeds in midweek. Andrey Santos, one of those to drop out of the XI, has been out warming up with the rest of the starting players. Either Maresca has a fitness doubt in his XI or I’m reading too much into that.

”Bournemouth make four changes from their loss to Everton here on Tuesday. They may switch to a back three, with two right-backs – Álex Jiménez and Adam Smith – in the XI. We’ve had sunshine, rain and wind during the warm-up and now a rainbow. It’s all very pleasant.”

Time for some teams…

Here’s our Friday digest of team news and other news from the Premier League.

WSL scoreline: Arsenal 2-1 Liverpool

Stina Blackstenius got the late winner for the Gunners.

Huge game today for Thomas Frank, facing Brentford with Tottenham today. The draw at Newcastle, last minute though it was, calmed some of the storm but a repeat of last week’s display against Fulham and the home fans will be in uproar.

And in the Premier League, Leandro Trossard, who came on at half-time has levelled for Arsenal at Aston Villa.

Elsewhere in the Championship, crisis club Leicester are leading 3-0 at Derby.

Charlton v Portsmouth game called off

In the Championship, Charlton v Portsmouth has been abandoned:

“Due to a medical emergency in the crowd, today’s match has been abandoned. We thank you for your patience and understanding. Everyone at the club sends their best wishes to the supporter affected and thank our medical team and first responders. Information on when the match will be rescheduled will be announced in due course.”

It was 0-0, the game was just 15 minutes in.
