  • Hull City - Liverpool

    90'’ Cairney gets in down the left and he has a crack but just over! Great play from the youngster.

    83'’ OFF THE LINE BY MULLINS!! Think that was Yakubu with the effort and Finnan is in trouble on the deck.

    87'’ LIVERPOOL SUB: Youngster Robinson on for the Reds.

  • Burnley - Tottenham Hotspur

    79'’ Burnley substitution: Robbie Blake replaces Nugent.

  • Arsenal - Fulham

  • Aston Villa - Blackburn Rovers

    74’ Very clumsy tackle from Samba on Carew in the area...that one should be a penalty...no! Another strange decision - that one looked almost as clear-cut as the Blackburn decision down at the other end earlier.

  • Bolton Wanderers - Birmingham City

    75'’ Benitez shapes to take this himself. He composes himself, and it's beyond dreadful! Jaaskelainen saves comfortably. The rebound is blocked, but McFadden gets there, and don't ask me how, but Birmingham have their goal!

  • Hull City - Liverpool

    76'’ Good pressure from Hull sees a Boateng shot handled by Carragher on the edge of the box! The hosts think it's a penalty but Liverpool say free-kick.... What does the ref think? Free-kick. Liverpool even think it wasn't a handball, which is absurd, he flew in star-shaped with his arms wide out like Peter Schmeichel.

  • Manchester United - Stoke City

    76'’ Rooney is carrying a knock and is forced to come off. Let's hope that's not serious. Ji-Sung Park will come on.

    74'’ Birmingham win a penalty! Foul on Benitez for well, not very much. Robinson nudges him as he challenges for the ball.

  • Chelsea - Wigan Athletic

  • Burnley - Tottenham Hotspur

  • Manchester United - Stoke City

    73'’ LIVERPOOL SUB: Pacheco on for Aquilani.

    71'’ Giggs sets Rooney away down the right and he slides the ball in low for Macheda!! Huth and Wilkinson are there and prevent the Italian getting a shot away!

  • Arsenal - Fulham

    69'’ Elm springs the offside trap and Fabianski comes out of his penalty area to smother the danger only for the ball to deflect on to his arm. Another booking.

  • Arsenal - Fulham

    68'’ This time Eboue booked for a dive after Kelly's sliding tackle on the Ivorian inside the penalty area. Eboue loves the theatrics but his trailing leg might just have caught the back of the Fulham sub.

  • Arsenal - Fulham

    67'’ Dempsey is replaced by Fredrik Stoor.

  • Aston Villa - Blackburn Rovers

    65'’ Fine 'keeping from Robinson to punch clear Downing's inswinging free-kick from the right, then Petrov fires into the side-netting from jut outside the area. Half of the Holte End thought that one was in. Downing's effort looked to be creeping in.

  • Bolton Wanderers - Birmingham City

    65'’ And Bolton make changes too - they can introduce Holden and Lee for Taylor and Weiss. Just a gentle return to action for Holden at this stage.

  • Arsenal - Fulham

    66'’ This time Fulham claims for a penalty as Clint Dempsey tumbles under a challenge from Campbell. The American is booked for a dive and is clearly angry with referee Michael Jones.

  • Burnley - Tottenham Hotspur

    62'’ Tottenham substitution: Roman Pavlyuchenko replaces Defoe.

  • Chelsea - Wigan Athletic

    63'’ THE DROGA HAS HIS VITAL GOAL! Seconds after an overhead kick attempt he heads home - Chelsea's 100th Premier League goal this season!

  • Everton - Portsmouth

    59'’ Awful decision!! Vanden Borre was three yards out and there was an Everton player on the line!! Pompey should be one up here!!

  • Everton - Portsmouth

    62'’ Silvestre hobbles off so Johan Djourou comes on for his first appearance of the season after recovering from serious knee surgery.

  • Wolverhampton Wanderers - Sunderland

    62'’ Two quick fire efforts for Craddock. The first, a glancing header is pushed around the post by Gordon. The second, a thunderous header from the corner, strikes Ebanks-Blake and loops up into the arms of Gordon.

  • Arsenal - Fulham

    61'’ Arshavin goes down under a challenge from Kelly, the former Tottenham defender did not make any contact with the ball but the penalty appeals are waved away.

  • Bolton Wanderers - Birmingham City

    59'’ It's 2-0! Klasnic socres! Weiss is through at first, and though it looks like the chance is over, he manages to tease it through to Klasnic, who strikes it right-footed past Hart.

  • Manchester United - Stoke City

    62'’ Federico Macheda and Darron Gibson come on for Dimitar Berbatov and Paul Scholes.

  • Everton - Portsmouth

    59'’ But not for long! O'Hara loses it on the halfway line. Eventually falls to YAKUBU!! Comfortable for Ashdown!

  • Burnley - Tottenham Hotspur

    58'’ Wonderful play from Burnley as Spurs are being pulled from pillar to post! Paterson reeives a sweeping cross-field pass and plays it back across towards Fletcher at the far post... denied by a sliding tackle by King!

  • Arsenal - Fulham

    60'’ Arshavin tees up van Persie unmarked 12 yards from goal but another scuffed shot from the usually deadly striker.

  • Aston Villa - Blackburn Rovers

    58'’ Milner goes agonisingly close to putting West Ham ahead at the other end. The cross came in from the right, Agbonlahor got the feintest of touches to it, and Milner, racing in at the back poist, couldn't quite make up enough ground to get to the ball.

  • Hull City - Liverpool

    63'’ LIVERPOOL SUB: N'Gog on for El Zhar.

  • Wolverhampton Wanderers - Sunderland

    60'’ Edwards for Jones for the hosts.

  • Hull City - Liverpool

    57'’ Great block by Finnan as Everton almost thread their way through!

  • Aston Villa - Blackburn Rovers

    56'’ Collins scythes down Dunn in the area...penalty surely...no! Incredible! And as if to add insult to injury, David Dunn is booked for diving too!! Quite understandably, the Blackburn man is furious!

  • Everton - Portsmouth

    56'’ Sub for Everton. It's Rodwell who makes way for Yakubu Aiyegbeni. Pienaar seems to have recovered.

  • Arsenal - Fulham

    59'’ Pantsil is replaced by Stephen Kelly.

  • Chelsea - Wigan Athletic

    56'’ A FOURTH GOAL FOR THE BLUES! ANELKA VOLLEYS HOME BRILLIANTLY FOR 4-0!

  • Arsenal - Fulham

    57'’ The Ghana defender is clutching his thigh and that will concern Hodgson ahead of Wednesday.

  • Burnley - Tottenham Hotspur

    55'’ GOAL!! Paterson sends in another decent cross and Jack Cork is completely unmarked as he heads past Alnwick!

  • Chelsea - Wigan Athletic

    55'’ He took his shirt off as he ran to the corner to celebrate, and was booked for doing so.

  • Chelsea - Wigan Athletic

    54'’ A THIRD GOAL FOR CHELSEA! The title will surely be theirs - Kalou is the scorer.

  • Burnley - Tottenham Hotspur

    51'’ Paterson bends in a great ball for Fletcher, who steers the ball over the bar as he met it with his leg at full stretch! Tottenham are under it at the moment.

  • Wolverhampton Wanderers - Sunderland

    52'’ Decent opportunity for Sunderland. Richardson whips a deep searching cross for Jones but leaping highest the front man - possibly distracted by the presence of Hahnemann - heads wide.

  • Manchester United - Stoke City

    54'’ GOAL!!! Fletcher plays a revers through ball for Rooney, who shimmies past Huth and squares the ball... and Danny Higginbotham puts the ball into his own net off the underside of the bar!

  • Bolton Wanderers - Birmingham City

    51'’ And again so close! Birmingham's corner lifts straight to Ridgewell, whose flicked header misses the far post by very little.

  • Burnley - Tottenham Hotspur

    50'’ Burnley have got their tails up now, as Cork tees up Fletcher for an effort from close range that Alnwick blocks. They've got the home fans singing again!

  • Bolton Wanderers - Birmingham City

    50'’ Terrific save from Jaaskelainen! Johnsonlatches on to the ball in the box and through the bodies drills a low shot. Jussi tips it around.

  • Burnley - Tottenham Hotspur

    49'’ Nugent bursts into the box and King has to slide in with a last-ditch tackle! The rebound falls to Fletcher, whose shot is saved by the feet of Alnwick!

  • Hull City - Liverpool

    52'’ CHANCE HULL! A fizzing ball from Mendy on the right it flicked on by Hesselink, passes the lunging Carragher and is agonisingly close to being finished by Cullen! It spins away on the left!

  • Chelsea - Wigan Athletic

    49'’ Yellow card for N'Zogbia as he pulls back Cole, who was rampaging down the left flank. His namesake Cole claps the fans as he warms up on the touchline. Where will he play next season?

  • West Ham United - Manchester City

    48'’ Faubert gets a yard on the right, and PICKS OUT COLE WITH CROSS! Headed just over!

  • Arsenal - Fulham

    49'’ An incredible save from Schwarzer to deny van Persie. The Australian sprawling to block a volley from little more than eight yards but somehow the Dutch star then hits the post from two yards with his follow-up with the Fulham custodian prone on the floor.

  • Burnley - Tottenham Hotspur

    46'’ Right away Defoe surges forward with the ball. He rolls it into the path of Lennon who beats Jensen but sees the shot rebound off the post!

  • Everton - Portsmouth

    46'’ And it's Everton who get us back underway.

    46'’ The Latics emerge and the Blues start us off again.

  • Manchester United - Stoke City

    45'’ We're back underway at Upton Park

  • Burnley - Tottenham Hotspur

    46'’ Spurs kick off and the second half is underway!

  • Hull City - Liverpool

    46'’ Second half underway at the KC.

  • Everton - Portsmouth

    45'+1’ Finnan looks for Utaka. Wilson beats Arteta, tries his luck with a half chance. Wide of Howard's goal as ref Peter Walton brings the half to a close. It's Everton 0 Portsmouth 0 at the break!

  • Bolton Wanderers - Birmingham City

    45+2'’ Bolton are scrapping for a second. Muamba take the run forward. Wilshere has a shot in huge amounts of space and it looks an awful lot like handball which blocks that shot. The chance isn't over, and only good fortune saves the visitors from being two down as Klasnic nearly latches on to the second chance.

  • Chelsea - Wigan Athletic

    45+2'’ And the whistle sounds. 2-0 to Chelsea at the break playing 10 men... the title is theirs to lose in the second half.

  • West Ham United - Manchester City

    45+3'’ We're in the final minute of stoppage time, and City have a series of corners. They fail to make them count, though, and Howard Webb blows for half time

  • Burnley - Tottenham Hotspur

    45+1'’ The whistle goes for half-time, and Tottenham have firmly controlled this match but are just one goal to the good.

  • Everton - Portsmouth

    45'’ We're in the last minute as Vanden Borre fouls Arteta. Quick free-kick and Rodwell fires wide of Ashdown's post.

  • Manchester United - Stoke City

    45+2'’ That's half-time, and there is an air of defiance around Old Trafford. United will not win the title, but they are doing there bit and are determined to go out on a high.

  • Aston Villa - Blackburn Rovers

    45+2'’ There's the half-time whistle. Goalless so far, and a very even first half. Villa started the better, but since then Blackburn have come right back into it.

  • Hull City - Liverpool

    45+1’ Half time and goalless.

  • Manchester United - Stoke City

    45+1'’ Chance for Stoke!! Edwin van der Sar called into action to make a sharp close range save from Fuller!

  • Arsenal - Fulham

    45+2'’ Half-time. Arsenal ruthless.

  • Hull City - Liverpool

    45'’ AQUILANI HITS THE BAR! From just inside the box and Gerrard can finish but it drops behind him AND AGGER SURELY but he thrashes the ball wildly over!

  • Wolverhampton Wanderers - Sunderland

    45+1'’ And the half draws to an end with little other action of note.

  • Aston Villa - Blackburn Rovers

    45'’ The fleet-footed is brought down by a somewhat agricultral challenge from David Dunn. Milner bangs the free-kick goalwards...and Robinson is forced into a fine save low to his left!

  • Everton - Portsmouth

    41'’ Good work by Baines. The ball's now with Anichebe - turns away from Mokoena!! SHOOTS!! Side-netting!! Half of Goodsion saw the net ripple and thought their team was ahead, but it remains 0-0.

  • Bolton Wanderers - Birmingham City

    43'’ Paul Robinson guides the Trotters out of their half but without great pace. As they move forward Klasnic loses patience trying to beat Vignal and it's a horrible challenge. Yellow card for him as well, Bolton's first.

  • Burnley - Tottenham Hotspur

    42'’ GOAL!! Fletcher dummies over Paterson's through ball and Wade Elliott slots the ball past Alnwick!!

  • West Ham United - Manchester City

    44'’ Johnson hits it with the outside of his foot to SANTA CRUZ AT THE FAR POST! SHOULD'VE SCORED!! City will be cursing their finishing, as they should really be ahead after two or three gilt-edged chances

  • Chelsea - Wigan Athletic

    40'’ Drogba fouls Anelka and when Steve Gohouri does almost exactly the same thing to Kalou, he goes into the book - unlike the Ivorian. Mario Melchiot lectures the ref on impartiality.

  • West Ham United - Manchester City

    43'’ Johnson sends a lovely pass in to Adebayor in the box, who SHOOTS ACROSS ROBERT GREEN'S GOAL! GREAT SAVE! And a corner for the visitors

  • Aston Villa - Blackburn Rovers

    43'’ Robinson spills a tame shot right into the path of Agbonlahor, and he has to be back on his feet in double-quick time to push the rebound out for a corner!!

  • West Ham United - Manchester City

    42'’ City move the ball down the left, Adebayor picks it up on the left, and squares to Zabaleta WHO SHOOTS! High over the bar though, under very little pressure. A defenders finish, that!

  • Wolverhampton Wanderers - Sunderland

    40'’ Having put in a few robust challenges already, Turner is in the referee's book for going through the back of Doyle on the half way line. Wolves make little of the free-kick as Turner heads clear.

  • Aston Villa - Blackburn Rovers

    41'’ Stephen Warnock's afternoon is over. He is trudging off injured, and is replaced by Luke Young.

  • Arsenal - Fulham

    38'’ Walcott spurns an absolute sitter after a sublime flick from Eboue, the England winger screwing his shot wide from no more than eight yards with only Schwarzer to beat.

  • Everton - Portsmouth

    36'’ Utaka tries a long shot! That's straight down Howard's throat. Worth a pop, but he could have taken the ball further forward before trying his luck.

  • Manchester United - Stoke City

    38'’ GOAL!!! RYAN GIGGS!! Berbatov sprints down the left channel and squares low for Giggs, whose side-foot shot is not the best but it squeaks under Begovic!

  • Bolton Wanderers - Birmingham City

    37'’ Yellow for Ridgewell after he checks Wilshere as he moves forward for Bolton. Birmingham are pointing out that moments before Vignal probably should have had a free kick for the Blues, which went unnoticed.

  • Arsenal - Fulham

    36'’ GOAL!! 3-0 Arsenal. A frankly ridiculous own goal from Chris Baird as Eboue flicks Walcott's cross into the path of van Persie. The Northern Ireland nips in before the Dutch striker but only succeeds in poking the ball into the corner of the net.

  • Hull City - Liverpool

    37'’ Cullen heads just wide! Should have scored, perfect cross in from Cairney and he directed the header down past the stranded Reina but inches beyond the post!

  • Wolverhampton Wanderers - Sunderland

    36'’ Jarvis comes off the left flank, and, having received a clever ball from Dave Jones, flashes an effort just wide of the post of Gordon.

  • West Ham United - Manchester City

    35'’ 50/50 clash between Kovac and Zabaleta, which leaves the Argentine in a heap. There didn't seem to be any intent from Kovac, who was slightly late, but Zabaleta's still down...

  • Burnley - Tottenham Hotspur

    32'’ GOAL!! Bale plays the ball square to Modric, who skips past Caldwell and fires a rocket into the near top corner!! Great finish!

  • Manchester United - Stoke City

    34'’ The United fans respond with a great roar and Berbatov fashions a chance for GARY NEVILLE!!! He tries to chip Begovic but gets it all wrong!

  • Aston Villa - Blackburn Rovers

    32'’ Hanley in the thick of the action at the other end now as he heads just wide now from Dunn's corner. He just didn't get enough purchase on the header! That was Blackburn's best chance of the afternoon so far.

  • Bolton Wanderers - Birmingham City

    33'’ Goal for Bolton! Paul Robinson whips in a cross, and sure enough there's Kevin Davies finding himself a little space and steering in a header back past the keeper!

  • Chelsea - Wigan Athletic

    32'’ LAMPARD STICKS IT IN THE CORNER! Chelsea on their way to becoming champions!

  • Chelsea - Wigan Athletic

    31'’ Caldwell is shown a red card too! He can have no complaints.

  • Everton - Portsmouth

    28'’ Still Everton attack. Pompey lose the ball cheaply, Hibbert to RODWELL!!!! Scuffed the shot! Relief for Portsmouth.

  • Manchester United - Stoke City

  • Bolton Wanderers - Birmingham City

  • West Ham United - Manchester City

  • Bolton Wanderers - Birmingham City

    16'’ What a save from Joe Hart! Wilshere finds a way through the Birmingham defence and plays a ball to Taylor in yards and yards of space. One on one with Hart, the Birmingham keeper closes him down so fast, and prevents a certain goal. Taylor should still have done better.

    7'’ Gordon saves from close range from Ebanks-Blake following good work from Doyle down the right. Sunderland break.

  • Manchester United - Stoke City

    7'’ GOAL AT STAMFORD BRIDGE! Nicolas Anelka has given Chelsea the lead and put them on course for the title. More than a hint of offside about the goal, but it stands. What happens here at Old Trafford might count for nothing.

  • Hull City - Liverpool

    1'’ Match underway. Remember, Hull are down and to sneak sixth Liverpool need to win and Villa to fail to beat Blackburn at home.

  • Bolton Wanderers - Birmingham City

    2'’ Well, well! A huge chance for Lee Bowyer goes begging. Great work from Birmingham on the right Cameron Jerome cuts back for Bowyer. He aims for the right hand corner from about 10 yards, and scuffs it well wide. The visitors could easily have been in front, and probably should have.
