West Bromwich Albion are pressing Southampton now in a desperate search of an equaliser but they are running out of time - and ideas - to break down the Saints. We are into the final minute at The Hawthorns.
'Some hope for West Brom. It is another superb delivery from Chris Brunt, this time a cross, and Salomon Rondon puts the ball in via his shoulder. Atmosphere lifted.'
'Alexis Sanchez had barely touched the ball in the first 25 minutes here. But since having a shot in that moment, he has been electric. His penalty was terrible, his performance has been excellent.'
Bournemouth have turned it around at the Vitality Stadium as Lys Mousset heads home at the back post following a Jordon Ibe free-kick.
The goals in this game have been outrageously good and Pascal Gross adds to them with 15 minutes left with a cracking strike from 25 yards.

'Sanchez has been getting some pretty rough treatment today and just moments after Michael Hefele is booked for chopping down United’s new signing, he trips him up just inside the box to concede a penalty.
'Sanchez takes it himself and Jonas Lossl makes a great save, but the Chilean follows up to score his first goal for United. At £600,000-a-week in total their fans will hope it’s the first of many.'
What a finale set up at The Hawthorns as Salomon Rondon heads home a Chris Brunt free-kick with 18 minutes to play. A huge 18 minutes you feel in the teams' respective seasons.
Substitute Michael Hefele brought down Alexis Sanchez inside the box and although the Chielan saw his penalty saved by Jonas Lossl, the former Arsenal forward fires home the rebound for a goal on his Old Trafford debut.
With 20 minutes left Bournemouth are level on the south coast as Josh King grabs an equaliser.
'Pick that one out. Jose Izqueirdo has just scored an absurdly good goal. Curled one into the top corner beyond Adrian. 2-1 to Brighton.
'Its replays on the big screen attract 'oohs' and 'ahs' from the home fans.
'Michail Antonio warming up. Has David Moyes forgiven him enough to bring him on?'
'James Ward-Prowse hit his free-kick hard and true but Ben Foster should have done more. He took a fatal step to his right so that he could not dive down quick enough.'
Pascal Gross's over hit corner is collected by Jose Izquierdo who from the corner of the 18-yard box hits a brilliant strike across goal and perfectly into the top corner.

Breakthrough for Manchester United, with Juan Mata's cracking cross volleyed home expertly by Romelu Lukaku.

Sofiane Boufal throws a sulk over not taking a free-kick won by Wesley Hoedt, but his tantrum isn't justified as James Ward-Prowse finds the net to double the Saints' lead and pile the relegation pressure on West Brom.
'In reality Leicester should be out of sight. Somehow, they now find themselves level.
'Swansea have started the half with some purpose and Fernandez has got himself on the end of Ki’s corner to drag the Welsh side level.'
Speaking of big goals down at the bottom, this could be one as Federico Fernandez makes a rare appearance on the score sheet after steering home a Ki Sung-yueng corner to equalise for Swansea at the King Power.
Can West Brom pull a crucial goal back against Southampton? Can Manchester United find an attacking edge against Huddersfield? No changes from Jose Mourinho at the break.
Having looked in a promising position at one point in the first half, West Brom as it stands are cut adrift at the bottom of the table. They have 45 minutes to improve what is looking like a worrying situation for the Baggies...

'Alexis Sanchez has cut a frustrate figure in the first half and it gets the better of him in the last action before the interval as he takes down Florent Hadergjonaj and is rightly booked.
'United have been well on top but Huddersfield are doing all they can to hold Mourinho’s side at bay and treading a fine line at times.'
'Also my favourite insult of the match so far from a fan: ‘What time do you start your paper round, Byram?’'
'The atmosphere has been sucked from the stadium with that second Southampton goal. Losing here would be catastrophic for West Brom.'
'Mark Noble plays a risky pass and West Ham lose possession, leading to a good Brighton attack. Stuart Pearce races out from the bench to shout at Noble. The club captain responds: ‘F*** off!’ Brave man, Mark...'
I'm going to go with silly, Kieran. Which right minded person picks a spat with Stuart Pearce of all people? Talk about kicking a hornets' nest.
What a spectacle this is turning into. Just over three minutes after equalising, Southampton now lead as Jack Stephens attacks the near post to head home a Jack Ward-Prowse corner across goal.
'Worth watching Mario Lemina’s goal later, a purer strike it will be hard to find.'
Unstoppable. Southampton are level at The Hawthorns with Mario Lemina finding the corner with a stunning 25-yard drive.

'A niggly, fractious first half at Old Trafford. Mourinho is still out there on the touchline and the Huddersfield fans are chanting ‘you’re just a s**t Guardiola’. It’s fair to say an impeccably observed minute’s silence before kick-off is long fortgotten.'
'Real confusion at the King Power. Ndidi is slipped in to make it 2-0 but as the Foxes players celebrate referee Anthony Taylor goes to have a word with his assistant. His flag is eventually raised for offside but not against Ndidi but Diabate, who had picked the ball up three passes earlier. It’s the right call, but the fans won’t know that.
'Meanwhile, this looks a bad one for Leroy Fer. He’s gone down clutching his left leg, but there was no one around him. He’s clearly in pain and can’t even stand up to get off the pitch. The stretcher is on and applause rings around the stadium as he is carried off. Tom Carroll is on in his place.'
'Curious decision by referee Stuart Attwell. Terence Kongolo has just poleaxed Scott McTominay in the penalty box with what was either a forearm or shoulder to the jaw.
'Either way, it was like something out of WWE. Technically speaking, it was a penalty surely.
'However, while McTominay was coming to his senses on the sidelines, Attwell restarted the game with a drop ball.
'It wasn’t the first meaty challenge by Huddersfield in the opening 25 minutes with Philip Billing particularly prominent.
'Jose Mourinho is on the touchline waving an imaginary yellow card in the air. What was he saying on Friday about having no problem with the tackling in the Premier League?'
'Brilliant feet by Javier Hernandez. He starts the move with a nutmeg, then several passes later, he takes on two Brighton defenders and scores into the top right corner from 12 yards.
'Hernandez said yesterday in an interview that it was true he wanted to leave in January. He didn't and is now West Ham's main striker. He's just got them back into this.'
The Hammers are level after half-an-hour and this is a terrific strike from Javier Hernandez as he plays a one-two with Mark Noble before charging at the home defence and unleashing a brilliant effort past Mat Ryan.

'Xherdan Shaqiri looking as if aliens have taken him away and replaced him with a clone that runs around and makes tackles. Never seen him working so hard.'
'Come on Brighton this lot are rubbish,' shouts one home fan near me. Hard to disagree.
West Ham have been camped in their own half for most of this match.
'Mark Noble has just made a pass to no-one and the ball trickles out of play. Sums up their contribution so far.'
How on earth have Huddersfield survived this? Terence Kongolo wipes out Scott McTominay for what looks like a certain penalty but nothing is given as United supporters chant 'you don't know what you're doing' to referee Stuart Attwell.
'Whether he meant it or not Leicester fans don’t care as Iheanacho sets up Jamie Vardy for the opener.
'The former Man City starlet tries to dance around two Swansea defenders on the edge of the box but a heavy touch turns into the perfect through ball for Vardy who calmly slots beyond Fabianski. It’s no more than they deserve.'
Kelechi Iheanacho has made the most of his rare start, playing a ball into the path of Jamie Vardy who opens the scoring at the King Power.
'The visitors are under the cosh and aren’t helping themselves. Federico Fernandez’s backpass is too square for Lukasz Fabianski and the extra touch he needs to take allows Jamie Vardy to hunt him down, fortunately for Swansea’s the England striker’s touch can only deflect it out for a throw in and nothing more serious.'
'The Cyrille Regis tribute was done thoughtfully and with warmth, and it has led to a crackling atmosphere at the Hawthorns.
'So much so that when West Brom won their first corner there was a roar of expectation. Sure enough, Chris Brunt delivered brilliantly (again) and Ahmed Hegazi rose to head in and lift the roof off.
'Jack Stephens complained he had his shirt pulled but in truth it was poor defending, he simply lost the Egyptian.'
'An emotionally charged afternoon at Old Trafford and, as you would expect, the minute’s silence to commemorate the 60th anniversary of the Munich air disaster was impeccably observed.
'Every supporter that as entered the stadium has been given a complimentary programme and book about the events of February 6, 1958 and Jose Mourinho’s words in his notes about the occasion strike the right tone. Those who perished, he says, will never be forgotten.'
'Not many Swansea fans have made the trip to the King Power. You’d have thought there was something more pressing for sports fans in Wales this afternoon.
'It’s maybe hardly surprising they’ve stayed away though given their run of form against Leicester; they’ve not won here since 1950.'
'Glenn Murray with the goal after only seven minutes. Referee Roger East with a very good advantage played after Aaron Cresswell chopped down Anthony Knockaert. Murray raced through and slipped it past Adrian.'
Those West Ham fans have even more to grumble about now as Glenn Murray has given the hosts the lead after finishing coolly one-on-one with Adrian.
'Three minutes in and the entire away end are singing: 'Sack the board.'
David Sullivan is here I believe...'
Chelsea didn't look like scoring against Bournemouth all evening on Wednesday... Stoke need just five minutes on the south coast as Xherdan Shaqiri nods home.
What a start in the scrap between the two sides threatened by relegation as Ahmed Hegazy powers home a header following a Chris Brunt corner - just hos second goal of the season.
'Good atmosphere at the Amex. Packed. Both teams should be up for this. My prediction? A bold 2-2.'

McTominay has a good 20 centimeters on the 1.7m Sanchez - it looks a lot more during the Old Trafford warm up though.
'Joao Mario scoring some absolute screamers in the pre-match warm-up... one from outside of the box just struck the underside of the crossbar and went in. The new man starts today for West Ham.'
And on that note, 0-0 on the south coast anyone?
JOE BERNSTEIN: Johann Berg Gudmundsson almost took the roof of Turf Moor with a late equaliser to force a draw against champions-elect Manchester City.
City, fielding only six substitutes because of a lengthening injury list, had appeared ready to go 18 points clear when Brazilian Danilo struck from outside the box midway through the first half.
Both sides make changes in a bid to escape the bottom three in the table, with West Brom handing a full debut to Daniel Sturridge.
The striker on loan from Liverpool comes into the team beaten 3-0 by Manchester City along with Gareth Barry, Chris Brunt and Matty Phillips as James McClean, Grzegorz Krychowiak, Sam Field and Jay Rodriguez depart.
Southampton make three alterations following a 1-1 draw with Brighton as Mario Lemina, Sofiane Boufal, and Guido Carrillo come in for Steven Davis, Pierre Hojbjerg, Shane Long.
Following a a 2-1 defeat at Everton, Claude Puel rings the changes as Fousseni Diabate makes his first Premier League start by coming into the side along with Danny Simpson, Christian Fuchs, Adrien Silva and Kelechi Iheanacho as Daniel Amartey, Ben Chilwell, Demarai Gray, Matty James and Shinji Okazaki make way.
Swansea City meanwhile are unchanged from the team that triumphed 3-1 against Arsenal.
Unsurprisingly, Eddie Howe sees fit to stick with the same Bournemouth starting XI that recorded a magnificent 3-0 victory at Chelsea on Wednesday.
Stoke meanwhile make three changes following a 0-0 draw with Watford as Darren Fletcher , Charlie Adam and Mame Diouf make way for new signing Badou Ndiaye, Geoff Cameron and Peter Crouch.
Jose Mourinho makes four changes following Manchester United's 2-0 defeat by Tottenham Hotspur as Paul Pogba is dropped along with Ashley Young, Phil Jones and Anthony Martial.
Coming into the side are Scott McTominay, Luke Shaw, Marcos Rojo and Juan Mata.
Huddersfield Town also ring the changes after a 3-0 home loss by Liverpool as Tommy Smith, Rajiv van la Parra, ad Collin Quaner come in for Chris Lowe, Aaron Mooy and Steve Mounie.
With just one Premier League victory in three months, Chris Hughton makes just one change from the 1-1 draw at Southampton as Anthony Knockaert comes into the Brighton team in place of Solly March.
David Moyes meanwhile names the same West Ham United team that drew 1-1 with Crystal Palace, which means new signing Jordan Hugill is on the bench.
