Manchester City remain top of the Premier League after thrashing West Bromwich Albion 4-0, hours after Arsenal briefly overtook them with a 4-1 win at Sunderland. Manchester United were left frustrated though as Ander Herrera was sent-off in the 0-0 draw with Burnley, while Tottenham were held to a 1-1 draw by reigning champions Leicester City. Liverpool saw off Crystal Palace 4-2 in the final game of the day to join City and Arsenal at the top of the table. Re-live the action here.

Liverpool continue to pressure the Palace defence but they have numbers behind the ball and are making it hard work for the visitors.

With only ten minutes to go, Palace have a lot of work to do, They will need to step it up a gear if they want to get a point from this fixture. It's doable, but will Liverpool let them? Only time will tell.

Possession is predominantly in the Palace half. Nonetheless, the home side aren't giving up just yet. Ward is pushing forward down the right and he wins a foul after Firmino clashes into him. 

Free kick Palace.

And it's all over! 

Liverpool leave Selhurst Park with a deserved 3 points, but there are certainly positives that Pardew's men can take from this fixture. Both sides battled until the end and it was a joy to watch. 

It's been a fantastic day of Premier League fixtures, I hope you have enjoyed it as much as I have.

Make sure that you tune in tomorrow for live coverage as Everton host West Ham and Chelsea visit St Mary's Stadium.

Thank you and see you then...
