Liverpool 0-3 Nottingham Forest, Fulham 1-0 Sunderland, and more: Premier League – live

5.00pm GMT FULL TIME! Bournemouth 2-2 West Ham Nuno’s Hammers aced the first half with two goals from the rejuvenated Callum Wilson (aged 34). But Bournemouth are unbeaten at home this season and they showed why in the last quarter of the game, with a penalty from Tavernier and an equaliser from Udal. 4.58pm GMT FULL TIME!!! Liverpool 0-3 Forest They won at Anfield last year, when it was unthinkable. And now they’ve done it again, in style, when it’s more thinkable but still not easy. Xavi Alonso went to Liverpool and lost; Sean Dyche has gone there and won, hands down. 4.56pm GMT PENALTY SAVED! Brighton 2-1 Brentford Igor Thiago, who scored a penalty to put Brentford ahead, has now fluffed one when he had the chance to equalise. Verbruggen dived to his right and saved. Updated at 5.00pm GMT 4.54pm GMT FULL TIME! Wolves 0-2 Palace So no new-manager bounce for Rob Edwards, yet. Wolves did keep a clean sheet for an hour, but then Palace’s class told with goals from Munoz and Pino. 4.52pm GMT “I am a Liverpool fan,” says Bilal Ahmed Shariff, “and we need to change the manager as soon as possible. Zero excuses accepted for this performance. The team keeps sinking to a new low every week.” 4.51pm GMT The last time Forest won at the home of the reigning league champions was in 1994, when they beat Man United at Old Trafford. 4.48pm GMT As it stands … Palace are fourth, Brighton fifth, Sunderland sixth, Bournemouth seventh. And Liverpool 11th! If the Forest fans aren’t singing “You’re getting sacked in the morning,” that’s very polite of them. Updated at 4.50pm GMT 4.47pm GMT GOAL! Brighton 2-1 Brentford (Hinshelwood 84) Jack Hinshelwood comes off the bench, picks up a rebound from Yankuba Minteh’s shot and scores what could well be the winner. Brighton are so good at home – it just took them 70 minutes to show it today. Updated at 4.48pm GMT 4.44pm GMT To lose one league game 3-0 may be considered a misfortune, especially if it’s at the Etihad. To lose the next one 3-0, at your own fortress, looks like carelessness. Liverpool have fallen apart again and Forest are in heaven. 4.44pm GMT GOAL! Fulham 1-0 Sunderland (Jimenez 84) Fulham’s dominance finally shows up on the scoreboard. Updated at 4.47pm GMT 4.42pm GMT GOAL! Bournemouth 2-2 West Ham (Unal 81) From 2-0 down, suddenly Bournemouth are level! And it’s Unal who does the trick, a minute after coming off the bench. 4.41pm GMT GOAL!!!!! Liverpool 0-3 Forest (Gibbs-White 78) It’s a rout! Gibbs-White, first time, left foot, game over. “Thoroughly deserved” says the commentator on 5 Live. Updated at 4.43pm GMT 4.39pm GMT Game of the day in the Bundesliga, says Kári Tulinius. “Stuttgart’s visit to Dortmund looked like it would be a home win, first when the Prussians went in two goals to the good at half-time, and then when Adeyemi scored to make it 3-2 in the final minute of regulation. But Brighton old boy Deniz Undav, who’d scored two brilliant strikes, then completed his hat-trick. How the Seagulls could use him now. A real thriller.” The Prussians! That may be the acceptable face of elegant variation. Updated at 4.39pm GMT 4.37pm GMT “So far, as a Liverpool supporter,” says Joe Pearson, “I am not impressed by Slot’s sophomore album.” 4.34pm GMT The table is mildly absurd at the moment. That goal from Danny Welbeck has sent Brentford from fifth to 12th, as it stands. And Liverpool, without managing a goal, have crept up to ninth. 4.32pm GMT GOAL! Brighton 1-1 Brentford (Welbeck 71) One home goal brings two! And Danny Welbeck can’t stop scoring. Someone must have told him that Callum Wilson had got two. Updated at 4.38pm GMT 4.31pm GMT That penalty from Tavernier was the first Premier League goal today from anybody playing at home. After five lots of 70 minutes and one of 90, so something like 440 minutes. 4.29pm GMT Remember Bayern Munich going 2-0 down early on, at home to Freiburg? They’re now 6-2 up. And yes, Harry Kane has got his obligatory goal. Updated at 4.35pm GMT 4.28pm GMT GOAL! Bournemouth 1-2 West Ham (Tavernier pen 70) Evanilsen wins a penalty from Max Kilman. Marcus Tavernier hits it down the middle and Bournemouth are back in it. Updated at 4.34pm GMT 4.26pm GMT GOAL!! Wolves 0-2 Palace (Pino 69) One brings two! And it sounds like a worldie from Yeremy Pino. Updated at 4.36pm GMT 4.25pm GMT So that’s yet another away goal. Does anyone still do the Pools? 4.25pm GMT GOAL! Wolves 0-1 Palace (Munoz 63) Wolves held firm for an hour … but then there was a Palace corner, a shot from Adam Wharton, a block and a simple chance for Daniel Munoz. Updated at 4.28pm GMT 4.22pm GMT The 5.30 game is a tasty one – Man City, looking ominous, visiting St James’ Park, still a hard place to win. Do join Scott Murray to see the teams picked by Eddie Howe and Pep Guardiola. Related: Newcastle United v Manchester City: Premier League – live 4.17pm GMT Liverpool 0-2 Forest What’s Slot got? He’s got Hugo Etitike, who is coming on … for Konate. 4.16pm GMT Still not a single home goal in the Premier League today. Seven from the away teams, led by Chelsea with two at Burnley, West Ham with two at Bournemouth and Forest with two at Anfield, of all places. Updated at 4.18pm GMT 4.16pm GMT If you like a hit parade, have a glance at our list of PL top scorers. You know who’s top – Norway’s answer to Bryan Adams – but below him, Igor Thiago and Callum Wilson are on manoeuvres. Related: Premier League top scorers 2025-26: who is leading race for golden boot? 4.12pm GMT As it stands … Liverpool are 10th. Forest are out of the bottom three, where they should never have been in the first place. Brentford are up to fifth, Palace to seventh, and Sunderland are still fourth. 4.10pm GMT GOAL!!! Liverpool 0-2 Forest (Savona 46) Forest deserved to be 2-0 up before half-time and now they are, just afterwards. It’s one full-back to another as Williams’s cross finds Savona, who finishes like a striker. What have you got, Arne Slot?

Brighton 0-1 Brentford Brighton are hard to beat at home, but they’re 1-0 down after Carlos Baleba gave away a penalty by fouling Igor Thiago, who scored from the spot. 3.54pm GMT HALF-TIME!! Liverpool 0-1 Forest They did it last year, when it was almost impossible, and they’re threatening to do it again this year, when it’s still not easy as long as the game is at Anfield. Liverpool have had 10 shots to Forest’s four, but only a controversial call from the refs has saved them from going 2-0 down. 3.51pm GMT HALF-TIME! Bournemouth 0-2 West Ham It’s the Callum Wilson show. We’ve only had four goals in these five matches so far, and he’s scored two of them. 3.50pm GMT HALF-TIME! Fulham 0-0 Sunderland Another stalemate, so far, at Craven Cottage. It looks as if Fulham have been well on top, with 10 shots to Sunderland’s one. Are Sunderland finally beginning to behave like a promoted club? 3.48pm GMT HALF-TIME! Wolves 0-0 Palace A minor triumph for Rob Edwards: his team have kept half a clean sheet. 3.45pm GMT Liverpool 0-1 Forest Liverpool have gone behind in eight games this season and lost seven of them. But they’ve just had what may have been a stroke of luck. The consensus among the ex-players on the BBC’s Final Score, is that the ball his Jesus’ ribs, not his arm. Updated at 3.46pm GMT 3.40pm GMT Bournemouth 0-2 West Ham It was a free kick that led to the ball bobbling about in the box. Wilson got it under control, jinked his way into a pocket of space and thumped the ball into the top corner. At this rate, he’ll be going to the World Cup. 3.38pm GMT GOAL! Bournemouth 0-2 West Ham (Wilson 35) Callum Wilson has done his old club again! Updated at 3.40pm GMT 3.37pm GMT DISALLOWED! Liverpool 0-1 Forest Yes, it’s handball. So Van Dijk and Konate, who conspired to let Jesus in, are off the hook. 3.36pm GMT GOAL!!?? Liverpool 0-2 Forest (Jesus 33) Another one … but the VAR is on the case, as there may have been a handball from Jesus before his classy finish. 3.34pm GMT GOAL!!! Liverpool 0-1 Forest (Murillo 32) Wow. Forest win a corner which is taken by Elliot Anderson. He’s mostly been defending this afternoon but now he sends in a fine ball to Murillo, who plants it in the corner. Updated at 3.36pm GMT 3.32pm GMT Half an hour gone in all five games and so far no home team has scored. The only goals have come from Callum Wilson of West Ham at Bournemouth and Igor Thiago of Brentford with that penalty at Brighton. 3.30pm GMT GOAL! Brighton 0-1 Brentford (Thiago pen 29) He wins it, he converts it! Thiago sends Verbruggen the wrong way to score his seventh goal in seven games. Updated at 3.34pm GMT 3.29pm GMT Brighton 0-0 Brentford Thiago bounces back to win a penalty! For a foul by Baleba... 3.28pm GMT Brighton 0-0 Brentford Thiago has a goal disallowed for Brentford. He’s so far offside that he even gets flagged by the linesman. 3.26pm GMT Fulham 0-0 Sunderland Fulham have turned up at their own party with two counters. Harry Wilson, fresh from a hat-trick for Wales, shoots just wide; then Kevin is one-on-one with Roefs, who wins the duel. “A fine save,” says Tim Sherwood on Sky’s Soccer Saturday. 3.21pm GMT Liverpool 0-0 Forest It’s the 20th minute, so Anfield breaks into its customary round of applause for the late, lamented Diogo Jota. 3.20pm GMT Over in Munich, Bayern went 2-0 down at home to Freiburg … but now, at half-time, it’s 2-2. Amazingly, neither of the Bayern goals came from Harry Kane. Michael Olise made the first (for Lennart Karl) and scored the second. Updated at 3.33pm GMT 3.17pm GMT Liverpool 0-0 Forest Mo Salah beats three defenders with a twisty run. There’s a VAR check for a possible penalty, but it’s not given. 3.15pm GMT GOAL! Bournemouth 0-1 West Ham (Wilson 11) The first goal of the afternoon comes from Callum Wilson against one of his old clubs. It was route one – a long kick, and an assist, from Areola. The other keeper, Petrovic, seems not to have covered himself in glory as Wilson’s low shot made it way past him. That’s a big moment for Nuno. Updated at 3.18pm GMT 3.12pm GMT Brighton 0-0 Brentford Two early chances for Brighton: Wieffer has a shot saved by Kelleher, and from the resulting corner Rutter heads over the bar. The supplier in both cases was Minteh. 3.09pm GMT Liverpool 0-0 Forest Liverpool are on top now. Mac Allister has not one but two chances, the second a rasping shot that is superbly blocked by Elliot Anderson. 3.07pm GMT Wolves 0-0 Palace Marc Guehi, just back from injury, already has a yellow card for a late tackle. 3.06pm GMT Fulham 0-0 Sunderland The first half-chance of the game falls to the mighty Sunderland, but Wilson Isidor can’t get a touch to Bertrand Traore’s cross. 3.04pm GMT Liverpool 0-0 Forest First glimmer from Forest at Anfield: the excellent Morgan Gibbs-White wins a free kick with a deft spin, but Murillo can’t convert it. Updated at 3.05pm GMT 3.02pm GMT All five games are under way. No goals yet, for some reason. 3.01pm GMT Farewell to a fellow pro. I’ve got the radio on and Mark Chapman is paying tribute to Pat Murphy, who is at Molineux, covering his last game for the BBC. He has said he will retire this evening after 51 years. Quite an innings. “You’ve probably just heard the plangent ditty of Hi Ho Silver Lining,” says Pat. “I was here when they first played it in 1974.” 2.51pm GMT So Chelsea go second, for now. They have 23 points from 12 games, which is three fewer than Arsenal and one more than Man City (both from 11). City play at 5.30 today at Newcastle and Arsenal have the North London derby, at their place, in tomorrow’s teatime game. For Burnley, it’s the third defeat in a row after a decent start to the season. They will sink into the bottom three this afternoon if West Ham can get a point at Bournemouth or Forest pinch a win at Anfield – which is what they did last season. Related: Callum Hudson-Odoi grabs winner as Nottingham Forest stun Liverpool Updated at 2.56pm GMT 2.48pm GMT In the lunchtime game at Turf Moor, Chelsea have beaten Burnley 2-0. And they didn’t even need to bring on Moises Caicedo. Here’s Will Unwin with our report on the whistle. Related: Neto and Fernández ensure Chelsea avoid accidental slip with victory at Burnley 2.45pm GMT “Shouldn’t your caption,” asks Jeremy Boyce, “read ‘Liverpool fans slather...’ given that they are both stuffing their faces with UPFs?” Harsh! “Leeds fan here, we’re on/losing tomorrow. Clearly we have previous with the Wearsiders (see Wembley, FA Cup, Jim Montgomery, Bob Stokoe), but like everyone else I’m looking at Sunderland with admiration and envy, wondering when the wheels will come off, or whether they can actually go all the way. To the top four. “Why not the title? Let Pep and Mikel pick each other off, and sneak in under the radar.” Bold! 2.43pm GMT During the international break, the place to be was Hampden Park. And our Scots correspondent, Simon McMahon, is still talking about it. “Afternoon Tim. Scotland’s game of the day is a full rerun of Tuesday night’s classic at my house with a case of whisky at Tannadice, where Dundee United welcome Falkirk looking to leapfrog their visitors and return to the top six after falling to seventh before the international break. Falkirk have done what United did last season and taken the step up from the Scottish Championship in their stride. They currently sit fifth, two points ahead of their hosts. It should be a cracker. The other 3pm games are Hibs v struggling Dundee, Kilmarnock v Motherwell and Rangers v Livingston.” 2.38pm GMT Teams: Wolves v Palace Rob Edwards seems to be sticking with Wolves’ shape while changing half the cast. He brings in Emmanuel Agbadou, Toti Gomes and David Moller Wolfe at the back, Marshall Munetsi in midfield and Tolu Arokodare upfront. Oliver Glasner welcomes Marc Guehi back and also summons Yeremy Pino.

Marco Silva, who has to cope without Sasa Lukic, shifts Alex Iwobi back into the pivot and brings in Josh King. Fulham (4-2-3-1) Leno; Tete, Andersen, Bassey, Sessegnon; Berge, Iwobi; Wilson, King, Kevin; Jimenez. Subs: Lecomte, Castagne, Cairney, Cuenca, Kusi-Asare, Chukwueze, Reed, Traore, Smith Rowe.

He also has Szoboszlai and Kerkez as his full-backs, a decision that could have the Forest wingers licking their lips.

Updated at 2.15pm GMT 1.30pm GMT Preamble Afternoon everyone. Are you old enough to remember when Saturday at 3pm was the moment you looked forward to all week? Well, it’s back, just for one day. From 3 till 5, we have half the weekend’s Premier League action. And as there are no dull teams this season, all five games are appetising… Bournemouth v West Ham Bournemouth were second in the league at Hallowee’en, but then they got spooked, losing to Man City and Villa and slipping to ninth. Still, they’re only one point off the top four and at home, where they have four wins out of five, they should be too strong for West Ham, even allowing for the Nuno bounce. Brighton v Brentford It’s the well-run derby! And a tussle between two mid-table neighbours. Both are on 16 points from 11 games and both have been much better at home, so Brighton are the favourites. Fulham v Sunderland Fulham are on the slide, with five defeats from their last six league games. Sunderland are living the dream, fourth in the table and fresh from drawing with Arsenal. To be fair, Fulham’s home form has been respectable – but the last time Sunderland made the long trip to West London, a month ago, they beat Chelsea. Liverpool v Forest On form, both these teams are very beatable. Liverpool have scraped only three points from their last six league games, Forest four. But both did emerge from a losing streak in October – Liverpool with a win over Villa (before they got battered by Haaland), Forest with a draw against Man United and a win over Leeds as Sean Dyche got them sorted. Liverpool remain formidable at home, but can they walk through this storm? Wolves v Palace When I said no teams were boring this season, I nearly made an exception for Wolves, but let’s face it, they’ve been so bad that they’ve been riveting. At a time when everybody bar Arsenal has blown hot and cold, it’s quite a feat to have collected only two points from a possible 33. And now they’re even more interesting because they have a new manager. In his heart of hearts, Rob Edwards might settle for a point today, and Palace may oblige as they are hard to beat (only two defeats in the league) but easy to match (five draws). Kick-off, as you know, is at 3pm GMT, and I’ll be back soon with a heap of team sheets.
