Newcastle's rise to becoming a team ready to compete in the Champions League is happening quicker than many would have predicted.

Liverpool has made a stuttering start to the English Premier League.

Liverpool is top of the English Premier League again after drawing with Tottenham 1-1 but Manchester City can go three points clear on Sunday.

Hakim Ziyech’s curling, dipping strike and Thiago Silva's header gave Chelsea a 2-0 win over Tottenham to end a four-match winless run in the Premier League.

Seven of the 11 games so far have had goalless first halves. Less than half of the teams have chosen to take up that opportunity in the Premier League. Across the 11 games, 10 of the 22 teams chose to make all five subs. According to the Premier Injuries website that tracks injuries sustained in Englands top division, there have been seven confirmed in-play injuries since the restart and only one James Milner (left hamstring) has been a muscular problem.
