Welcome to The Independent’s live updates from Everton vs Stoke City.

With the first international break of the season looming, Manchester United, Chelsea and Hull City - yes, Hull City - are among the early pacesetters.

Arsenal, Liverpool and defending champions Leicester City, on the other hand, all have reason to be disappointed with their starts. Can they make amends on a busy day of action?

Marcus Rashford’s late, late goal at Hull ensures Jose Mourinho and Manchester United are three from three for the season as a new dawn continues to break over Old Trafford. The Red Devils are only kept off the top of the table by Chelsea, who also have a 100% record under their new manager, Antonio Conte, after they took Burnley apart at Stamford Bridge.

There were home wins for the champions Leicester and Everton while Arsenal finally got their season up and running following a comprehensive first half performance at Watford.

Elsewhere, Tottenham and Liverpool shared the spoils in the day’s early game in a 1-1 draw, and it was a similar story at Southampton where Sunderland were held by a late Jay Rodriguez goal.

That’s all from us at Indy HQ for today, but I’ll be back tomorrow with live coverage of two more Premier League matches. The action begins at the Hawthorns where West Bromwich Albion host Middlesbrough – yeah, I can’t wait either – before Manchester City take on West Ham at the Etihad Stadium. Until then, thanks for being with us and goodnight.
