Manchester United keep the pressure on Manchester City, while Tottenham's latest defeat means they could end up seventh in the table by tomorrow.

That's all from me here though. Thanks for following and cheerio.

A cracking finale on the way at Vicarage Road too as Abdoulaye Doucare pulls another goal back with six minutes left. They couldn't... could they? More here.

21:39
GOAL! West Bromwich Albion 2-2 NEWCASTLE UNITED

What a comeback for Newcastle. I admit I thought they were well beaten after going 2-0 down but Matt Ritchie's ball into the box is turned by Jonny Evans into his own goal.

Leicester City 2-1 Tottenham Hotspur

Should have stuck with Vincent Janssen? Spurs should be level but despite Serge Aurier whipping in a fine cross along the six-yard box, Fernando Llornte somehow turns it over the bar. That's arguably worse than Eriksen's miss.

21:22
GOAL! Leicester City 2-1 TOTTENHAM HOTSPUR

Well Erik Lamela isn't messing about, he's already made an instant impact as he tees up Harry Kane to pull a goal back for Spurs.

21:22
Leicester City 2-0 Tottenham Hotspur

Mauricio Pochettino has seen enough of Eriksen after that miss and replaces the Dane with Erik Lamela in his final change having also brought on Fernando Llorente for Mousa Dembele.

It's Lamela's first appearance in 13 months.

21:18
Leicester City 2-0 Tottenham Hotspur

It's just not Tottenham's night. A Son cross falls invitingly for Christian Eriksen inside the box but the Dane somehow makes a real mess of it by firing off target.

21:16
GOAL! West Bromwich Albion 2-1 NEWCASTLE UNITED

Maybe I was too soon to write off Newcastle? Ciaran Clark has given Rafa Benitez's side a lifeline after heading home a Matt Ritchie corner.

21:12
GOAL! WEST BROMWICH ALBION 2-0 Newcastle United

Slightly harsh on Newcastle who started the half well but the Toon look toast as Sam Field scores his first senior goal after converting an excellent Matty Phillips cross.

21:10
West Bromwich Albion 1-0 Newcastle United

Another chance for Newcastle. Jacob Murphy's cross is half cleared to Mikel Merino on the edge of the box, whose 20-yard volley is brilliantly stopped by Ben Foster.

21:06

21:04
Brighton 0-0 Crystal Palace

Still no goals in the clash at The AMEX Stadium, with Lewis Dunk flicking a Pascal Gross corner into the side netting.

21:01
Leicester City 2-0 Tottenham Hotspur

It's been another poor evening for Spurs and as the hour mark approaches they make a change as Moussa Sissoko departs after another less than stellar performance to be replaced by Son Heung-min.

20:58
Leicester City 2-0 Tottenham Hotspur

Talks of a Tottenham title push have loeked optimistic at best this season and any notion of one after tonight can surely be put to bed.

Or at least they should have been just now as Shinji Okazaki just misses out on making it 3-0 to the Foxes.

20:54

Brighton 0-0 Crystal Palace

Brighton break on Palace but despite Anthony Knockaert finding Pascal Gross on the edge of the box, the midfielder's effort on goal is well saved by Hennessey.

20:25

Whatever Ashley Young had in his pre-match meal I want some of it as his free-kick doubles United's lead. More here.

20:22
West Bromwich Albion 0-0 Newcastle United

What on earth is going on in the Baggies defence? Ahmed Hegazi beats his team-mate Ben Foster to a cross and only just avoids diverting the ball into his own net.

Cracking strike from Ashley Young against his former club... more here.

20:17
Leicester City 1-0 Tottenham Hotspur

Chance for Spurs. Christian Eriksen leads a counter attack before feeding Dele Alli who sees his effort saved by Kasper Schmeichel before the ball eventually rolls wide. Spurs should really have scored there.

Newcastle have started confidently enough at The Hawthorns but there are still no clear cut chances in the 8pm game as Jacob Murphy fires off target from 30 yards.

20:08
Brighton 0-0 Crystal Palace

Top save from Wayne Hennessey who does well to keep out a powerful Lewis Dunk header.

20:07
Leicester City 1-0 Tottenham Hotspur

Nearly an instant response from Spurs but Kasper Schmeichel denies Moussa Sissoko before Vicente Iborra then clears off the line.

Ahead of their first meeting in the Premier League, plenty has been said about Crystal Palace's unlikely rivalry with Brighton and Hove Albion.

Indeed, there are 45 miles between the teams and no discernible reason for them to hate each other... but ask any fan of either side, and they will barely want to say the name of Tuesday night's opponents.

Here, Sportsmail delves back into the archives to see just why there is such a bitter resentment between the two Premier League sides...
