Man Utd vs Bournemouth LIVE: Latest Premier League scores including Liverpool, Arsenal & Man City
Manchester United 1-0 Bournemouth: Express Sport brought you the latest Premier League scores including Liverpool, Arsenal, Tottenham & Manchester City
THAT'S ALL FOLKS...
22:30: Thanks for joining me tonight everyone. Not too many goals aside from Leicester and Manchester City - but plenty of entertainment and big consequences on the Premier League title race. Night!
22:27: Asked if the title race was over, Mourinho responded: “I said we play match after match and the next we have to try to win, we have a difficult one at West Brom and we try match after match. It is only over in May, if it is over now I go on holiday to Brazil or Los Angeles.”
22:25: Manchester United boss Jose Mourinho: “I am pleased with the three points, it was difficult match. They had one more day’s rest than us, they were fresher than us, and mentally fresher because a big match takes more from our players.
“The derby was a big one, and a defeat does not help in your recovery - victories help, defeats don’t. They were difficult opponents and difficult conditions. If we had scored the second it would have been a calm night for us.”
BOTTOM 10...
22:22: I haven’t seen the bottom of the Premier League table this tight in many years - there’s just six points separating bottom-placed Swansea and Southampton in 11th. Newcastle are perhaps the most worried having failed to win in eight games now. Up next for them? Arsenal (A), West Ham (A), Manchester City(H)…
Bottom 10...
22:20: Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp discusses their disallowed goal: “It is twice deflected and I am still not sure. It is for sure chest and then I am not sure if handball. We cannot take the decision back so all good, it is like this.
"First half we were a little bit stiff, the passing and movement was not so good but even then we had two or three chances. The second half we changed the system two or three times. It was difficult but I think only one time Loris Karius had to make a save - an important one.
"We can do better and we have to do better but on a night like this when you are not at your best you need a bit of luck. That was not our best game tonight but I think we had enough chances to win. We didn't use them and we have to accept the result."
22:18: West Brom boss Alan Pardew: “We were so disappointed to lose at Swansea, we didn't think we deserved to, but you have to earn your right and we were excellent in all aspects of our defending today.”
22:15: Swansea manager Paul Clement: “At times it was horrible to be on the sideline watching that, seeing my side trying but suffering for long periods. They're not the games that will decide our season but it was hard to watch at times because they were so dominant.”
22:12: Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola: “Considering we have a lot of games in our legs, a demanding game at Old Trafford three days ago, we were solid, we were serious and we made a good performance. You suffer and enjoy, like a manager you see many things. When the team play good we are happy.”
TOP 10...
TOP 10…
22:05: Manchester City set a new Premier League-record winning run of 15 games by beating Swansea 4-0 at the Liberty Stadium. It’s turning into an exhibition for Pep Guardiola’s side.
Manchester United’s important, if not overly entertaining, win against Bournemouth gives them a bit of breathing space over Chelsea in third.
But it’s the race for fourth that looks most entertaining with Spurs leapfrogging Liverpool, Burnley and Arsenal with back-to-back wins.

89: Good play down the left for the Cherries, with Daniels and King combining well but no-one is on the end of the cross.
TOTTENHAM 2-0 BRIGHTON - SON
88: Harry Kane might not be on fire, but Son certainly is. He flicks a Christian Eriksen free-kick past Ryan to put this game to bed.
TOTTENHAM 1-0 BRIGHTON
85: It’s just not Harry Kane’s night. The striker spanks (can I say that?) a free-kick and it thunders against the woodwork.
MANCHESTER UNITED 1-0 BOURNEMOUTH
84: Chance for Jermain Defoe, as he takes a touch in the box and tries a shot at David De Gea. The Spaniard deals with it and clears. Not a comfortable last few minutes for Jose Mourinho’s side.
LIVERPOOL 0-0 WEST BROM - DISALLOWED GOAL
82: Dominic Solanke has the ball in the net… but it’s been disallowed for offside. The youngster accidentally handles when bundling it over the line.

FT: NEWCASTLE 0-1 EVERTON
LIVERPOOL 0-0 WEST BROM

NEWCASTLE 0-1 EVERTON - RED CARD
90: Sam Allardyce looks set to maintain his unbeaten start to life at Everton. Newcastle have a couple of minutes to change that. Jonjo Shelvey collects his second red card of the season for a late tackle on Gueye.
MANCHESTER UNITED 1-0 BOURNEMOUTH
73: No idea how United haven’t added a second. Marcus Rashford unleashes a terrific drive that smacks against the crossbar.
WEST HAM 0-0 ARSENAL
70: Arsene Wenger has his head in his hands! Jack Wilshere has a fabulous chance to open the scoring but puts it wide.
Man Utd vs Bournemouth LIVE: Latest Premier League scores including Liverpool, Arsenal & Man City
SWANSEA 0-4 MANCHESTER CITY - AGUERO
52: Sensational Sergio Aguero. The striker creates space between three defenders and fires low into the corner. That must have been his 15th shot tonight!
WEST HAM 0-0 ARSENAL
67: Off the line! Petr Cech produces the most horrendous punch that falls straight to Arnautovic, whose scuffed volley is cleared off the line by Bellerin.
LIVERPOOL 0-0 WEST BROM
65: Ben Foster almost handed Liverpool the lead with a bizarre punch when he had time to catch it, then fumbled the second one before West Brom got it away.

WEST HAM 0-0 ARSENAL

Man Utd vs Bournemouth LIVE: Latest Premier League scores including Liverpool, Arsenal & Man City
LIVERPOOL 0-0 WEST BROM
57: Sadio Mane receives a cutback from Roberto Firmino but his placed effort goes wide of the top right. Salah follows that by heading over from less than five-yards away.
SOUTHAMPTON 1-4 LEICESTER - OKAZAKI
70: Comeback extinguished. It’s classic counter-attacking play from the former Premier League champions as Shinji Okazaki gets across the defender to turn home from Jamie Vardy's cross.
MANCHESTER UNITED 1-0 BOURNEMOUTH
54: Martial drives down the left and beats his marker but slips at the crucial moment. Not many chances to speak of at Old Trafford. I spy Zlatan Ibrahimovic warming up on the sidelines. Maybe the Swede can remedy the lack of opportunities.
LIVERPOOL 0-0 WEST BROM
51: Loris Karius is a busy boy since the break. West Brom are seeing chance after chance saved by the German stopper. Krychowiak almost guides a corner into the net but Karius parries clear.
WEST HAM 0-0 ARSENAL
48: Close! Mark Noble chests the ball into the box and Arnautovic shoots, but it goes just over. Tough to pick a winner at the London Stadium.
Man Utd vs Bournemouth LIVE: Latest Premier League scores including Liverpool, Arsenal & Man City
SOUTHAMPTON 1-3 LEICESTER - TADIC

45: We’re back underway in the 8pm KO’s now folks. Liverpool and Arsenal are still level with West Brom and West Ham respectively.
SOUTHAMPTON 0-3 LEICESTER
58: Any chance of a Southampton resurgence? Nope. They are simply going through the motions with Leicester looking extremely comfortable.
NEWCASTLE 0-1 EVERTON
55: Rafa Benitez’s side are still plugging away against Everton, but they can’t find their killer touch. Sam Allardyce two-thirds of the way to engineering a trademark 1-0 victory.
SWANSEA 0-3 MANCHESTER CITY - SILVA
52: And the third arrives. David Silva doubles his tally with the sweetest of chips over Fabianski. Could be a cricket score now folks.
SWANSEA 0-2 MANCHESTER CITY
48: Should be 3-0. Sergio Aguero plays a neat one-two-three with David Silva and the Spanish playmaker blazes wide.
Man Utd vs Bournemouth LIVE: Latest Premier League scores including Liverpool, Arsenal & Man City
45: We're back underway in the 7:45pm KO's folks. Can Manchester City add to their tally? Will Newcastle equalise? Can Southampton avoid complete embarrassment? We're about to find out.
HALF-TIME SCORES
HT: Liverpool 0-0 West Brom, Manchester Utd 1-0 Bournemouth, Tottenham 1-0 Brighton, West Ham 0-0 Arsenal
LIVERPOOL 0-0 WEST BROM
44: Fun game on pinball inside the West Brom penalty area after the Baggies struggle to clear Roberto Firmino’s shot. Evans eventually hacks it away.
TOTTENHAM 1-0 BRIGHTON - AURIER
40: That’s not how you spell Harry Kane… My Fantasy Football team is not having good night. Anyway, Serge Aurier grabs his first Spurs goal in bizarre fashion as his cross evades everyone and flies into the far corner! Complete fluke.
LIVERPOOL 0-0 WEST BROM
38: Another chance comes and goes at Anfield. Salah is literally centimeters from connecting with Alexander-Arnold’s cross at the back post.
Man Utd vs Bournemouth LIVE: Latest Premier League scores including Liverpool, Arsenal & Man City
MANCHESTER UNITED 1-0 BOURNEMOUTH
35: Close! The Cherries don’t look too discouraged by Romelu Lukaku’s opener. They should be level after a dozen chances, but Simon Francis blazes a shot over the bar after United failed to clear a corner.
HALF-TIME SCORES
HT: Newcastle 0-1 Everton, Southampton 0-3 Leicester, Swansea 0-2 Manchester City
LIVERPOOL 0-0 WEST BROM
33: Liverpool dominating but haven’t been able to muster a single shot on target. Robson-Kanu curling effort clips the top of the bar before going over.
TOTTENHAM 0-0 BRIGHTON
30: How haven’t Tottenham scored? Harry Kane and Erik Lamela combine before the latter turns his man in the box, and fires over the bar.
MANCHESTER UNITED 1-0 BOURNEMOUTH - LUKAKU
25: Did I say that United weren’t at the races? They are now. Juan Mata dinks a lovely ball to the back post for Romelu Lukaku to nod past Asmir Begovic.
The Belgian didn’t bother celebrating. He just sauntered back to the centre-circle. Trying to make a point? It’s lost on me.
Man Utd vs Bournemouth LIVE: Latest Premier League scores including Liverpool, Arsenal & Man City
SOUTHAMPTON 0-3 LEICESTER - KING
38: Leicester are completely dismantling Southampton on their own patch! Harry Maguire fizzes in a cross for Andy King who converts.
MANCHESTER UNITED 0-0 BOURNEMOUTH

SWANSEA 0-2 MANCHESTER CITY - DE BRUYNE
35: The floodgate have opened, and Kevin De Bruyne has added the second. The Player of the Season-elect hits an in-swinging free-kick that goes all the way through and finds the far corner.
SOUTHAMPTON 0-2 LEICESTER - FUCHS
31: Appalling goalkeeping from Fraser Forster. He elects to clear with his feet instead of gathering Fuchs’ volley and Okazaki converts the rebound. Leicester in complete control.
WEST HAM 0-0 ARSENAL - OFFSIDE!
15: David Moyes punches the air with joy. He then flails his arms with frustration. Arnautovic nods home Masuaku's cross, but he's flagged offside.
Man Utd vs Bournemouth LIVE: Latest Premier League scores including Liverpool, Arsenal & Man City
NEWCASTLE 0-1 EVERTON - ROONEY
12: Wayne Rooney opens the scoring at St James' Park in his 100th Everton appearance. He pounces on a loose ball and prods home from close range.
SWANSEA 0-1 MANCHESTER CITY - SILVA
21: From one Silva to another! Manchester City finally make the breakthrough as Bernardo Silva cross for David Silva to convert.
SWANSEA 0-0 MANCHESTER CITY
20: Still nothing doing for free-scoring City. Actually, they’ve really dropped their levels at the Liberty Stadium. Paul Clement said his plan was to frustrate the visitors - so far, so good! Otamendi arrives at the back post after Fabianski flapped at a cross, but he’s drilled it over.
LIVERPOOL 0-0 WEST BROM
10: The fab-four haven’t managed to break through West Brom’s stubborn defence in the early stages, but you sense it’s coming. Salah almost finds Mane but Evans pokes it away from him.
TOTTENHAM 0-0 BRIGHTON
8: Close! Spurs are a fraction away from being awarded a stonewall penalty but Shane Duffy JUST nicks the ball off Son.
MANCHESTER UNITED 0-0 BOURNEMOUTH
6: Disgusting weather in Manchester. That’s something new… Callum Wilson causes panic inside the United are but he can't find Josh King in the box.
Man Utd vs Bournemouth LIVE: Latest Premier League scores including Liverpool, Arsenal & Man City
WEST HAM 0—0 ARSENAL
3: It didn’t take long for Arsenal to have a sight at goal. Maitland-Niles powers down the left flank before crossing it into the six-yard box, but Ogbonna makes a crucial interception.
WE'RE UNDERWAY
1: All of tonight's matches have started now folks. Let the goals flood in!
SWANSEA 0-0 MANCHESTER CITY
15: You can get at Manchester City, and Jordan Ayew’s just proven that. He twists and turns past Otamendi before seeing his effort saved by Ederson.
SOUTHAMPTON 0-1 LEICESTER - MAHREZ
11: Riyad Mahrez is on fire! The Algeria international continues his fine run of form after finding space on the edge of the box, before a low, left-footed drive beats Forster.
NEWCASTLE 0-0 EVERTON
10: Not seen much from Everton thus far folks. A couple of interceptions from Gylfi Sigurdsson help relieve some pressure but the visitors are still struggling to settle.
SWANSEA 0-0 MANCHESTER CITY
8: Save! Fernandinho lashes strike from distance that Fabianski manages to parry away to safety. I think that’s his third save in the opening eight minutes.
NEWCASTLE 0-0 EVERTON
5: Rafa Benitez is already taking aim at the referee after Martina makes a clumsy challenge on Ritchie. The winger drills the ball towards goal but it strikes the bottom of the defensive wall and bounces behind.
SOUTHAMPTON 0-0 LEICESTER
2: Miya Yoshida has the first chance of the evening but he’s prodded a loose ball wide. I smell a draw in this one with Claude Puel and Mauricio Pellegrino in charge.
WE’RE OFF!
19:45: The three 7:45pm KO’s are underway folks.
Newcastle 0-0 Everton, Southampton 0-0 Leicester, Swansea 0-0 Manchester City
I’ll be bringing you all the goal updates from those games as fast as humanly possible. OK, that’s an exaggeration - but I’ll do it damn quickly!
Man Utd vs Bournemouth LIVE: Latest Premier League scores including Liverpool, Arsenal & Man City
NO DELE…
19:40: Not only is it Erik Lamela's first start in almost 14 months, it's the first time Dele Alli has not been selected to start a Premier League game when fit since November 2016.
TWITTER ROUND-UP
Nick: After the result at the weekend against Chelsea, there’s far too much confidence going into the Arsenal game tonight. Think we know how this will end… Hope I’m wrong of course!
Roger: This is what’s great about football. Yeah we are all p***** off about the derby, but you don’t have to wait long for the next game & a chance to move on. We will keep up the chase & will be waiting if Manchester City slip up!
Shaun: Early goal and Liverpool could have a field day against West Brom. 4-0 in my book!
WHY NO MIGNOLET?
19:33: I’ll allow Jurgen Klopp to explain. “Simon got a little knock in the last game, swollen around the ankle... He did OK today in training, absolutely, but we only had a little session. Yesterday, he couldn’t train. So, that’s the reason for that.”
Man Utd vs Bournemouth LIVE: Latest Premier League scores including Liverpool, Arsenal & Man City
NOT AGAIN, SURELY?
19:30: Many would have expected relegation-threatened West Ham to come away empty-handed from their first three games in December, with their opponents being Manchester City, Chelsea and Arsenal.
But after taking the lead before suffering a narrow 2-1 defeat to City, the Hammers stunned Chelsea with a 1-0 victory over the champions at the London Stadium on Saturday.
And manager David Moyes will be looking to pull off another shock against the Gunners, who needed a late Olivier Giroud header to salvage a point from their trip to Southampton at the weekend.

UNBEATEN ALLARDYCE
19:25: Everton have swiftly moved away from the bottom half of the table since appointing Sam Allardyce as their new manager last month.
With the former England boss watching in the stands ahead of his appointment, the Toffees eased past Allardyce's former club West Ham and then won twice more in all competitions before holding derby rivals Liverpool to a 1-1 draw at the weekend.
The 63-year-old will be keen to continue his unbeaten start to life as Everton boss when he takes his 10th-placed side to another of his former clubs - Newcastle.
BEWARE THE WOUNDED ANIMAL…
19:20: Jose Mourinho's Manchester United saw their club record-equalling 40-match unbeaten home run come to an end at the weekend as they lost to neighbours City in the Manchester derby.
This United side have a habit of bouncing back from disappointing defeats with impressive victories, as Newcastle found out when they lost 4-1 to Mourinho's men in the game after United's defeat at Chelsea in November.
And tonight’s opponents Bournemouth could be the victims as United look to get back to winning ways.

GOOD EVENING
18:35: Welcome to our LIVE coverage of the Premier League. Only struggling Swansea stand in Manchester City's way as the runaway leaders bid to set a new record for successive Premier League wins
*Alexandre Lacazette: Arsenal would need a miracle to win the title.
*Antonio Conte: It’s very difficult to stop Manchester City winning.
*Jose Mourinho: I don’t know if Manchester United can pull back City's 11-point lead.
Not much optimism or belief floating around at the top of the Premier League table these days, eh?
But everything could change with Manchester United, Manchester City, Arsenal, Liverpool and Tottenham in action.
We saw Kim Kardashian levels of drama at Selhurst Park yesterday, will we see more tonight?
