Figueiredo's was the second unfortunate own goal of the game, Kyle Bartley having also put through his own net from Sammy Ameobi's cross to make it 1-1 at the break following Callum Robinson's stylish, curled opener.

The London Stadium played host to 380 football journalists in their various guises. The guy on the gate who distributes the passes and, it is not unkind to say, has been round the block a few times, said it was unprecedented. That may or may not be true.

The home team have seen a couple of low scoring matches where no goal was scored in their last match and only one goal in the match before that. They have played in 4 matches which have seen 2 goals of less recently, this is 4 matches in a row actually.

In the second half, City did not relent, and soon had that second. Kevin De Bruyne spread the ball wide for Bernardo Silva, who fired a pinpoint cross onto the boot of Jesus, with the Brazilian guiding the ball into the top corner. Burnley made changes in search of a way back into the match, but with one foul swoop of Rodri’s boot, a real thunderbolt of a strike that flew past Pope before he could move, City had three, with substitute Mahrez drilling his 50th Premier League goal three minutes from time to seal a much-needed City win, a victory brought about through a performance as good as we have seen from City in some time, even if Brady's late strike denied them a clean sheet.
They are a very skilful outfit. Do I think they are going to be the team to end Liverpool's long unbeaten run? Not quite, because Wolves are not brilliant at home, but this is still the Reds' most difficult game for a long time - and I am going for a draw here.

When you see him up close on a daily basis you realise just how good his balance and touch is, and how he goes past people so easily. Jack Grealish has scored seven goals and provided eight assists in all competitions for Villa this season.

Pompey took the lead inside the first 20 minutes at Fratton Park, setting them on the way to a 3-0 win. And when Huddersfield fell behind against the Blues, the south coast club were en route to survival. The same could not be said of Palace, who were still level at 0-0 at Stockport. The Terriers then levelled just before the break, putting them three points ahead of Palace and with a better goal difference.
