Everyone is looking to push up the table at this point of the season and will be fighting to get a result in these matches. Hope you enjoy the live text!!

Were underway as its kick off around all the grounds!!

2 mins: Well it’s already been a nervy start for Livepool at Man City from kick off they spread the ball wide Di Maria run at his defender and but his cross was put out for a corner. But Liverpool struggled with their marking and Pique headed the ball over!!
The game between Portsmouth and Wolves has been hyped up to be a Fierce occasion and there have already have been a few dodgy tackles but the referee seems to be controlling the game well.. however if this carries on there will be a few yellow cards in this game. However no real chances have been created.

4 mins: Everton fans are getting on Tranqs back as his Birmingham team are controlling the game Luka Modric charged through the midfield played a lovely through ball to Gomez who hit it first time from outside the box but he had so much more time!
Wigan look up for the game at Hull and seem to be controlling the midfield at the moment passing the ball around nicely put some early pressure on the Hull midfield to wake up!

5 Mins – GOAL!!!!!!!!!!!
It’s a goal at St Marys but it’s for Norwich City it was a defensive freekick for Norwich Kolo Toure hit the ball up field Vlaar misjudged the ball and it went over his head and Di Natalie was there to round the keeper and slot it in!! Poor defending!

7 mins:
At Villa its very evenly matched Willian has had a few good runs down the wings however his delivery hasn’t been the best. But for Chelsea Aguero has forced a few good saves from the keeper. Either team could get a goal here soon.
At Old Trafford the Newcastle attack force seems to be too quick for the Man Utd defence especially Hazard running at Rafael they need to stop Hazard or soon he will cause some damage!

9 mins:
Torres has hit the post at the stadium of light and Malafeev pounced on the rebound. QPR have been on top and Teejay is not happy shouting commands at his team.
At Southampton the home team looked stunned at how Norwich have come here to attack them and they do not know what to do! Di Natalie has come close again but his shot was just over the bar!

10 mins – GOAL!!!!!!!!!!!
What a shock!! Its Wigan who have taken the lead at Hull!! Banega found some space on the edge of the box he was unmarked Mulumbu played a lovely pass to him and he has put the ball into the top corner fantastic goal!!

12 mins – GOAL!!!!!!!!!!!
First goal of the game at Fratton Park for Wolves!! Portsmouth has a corner committed men forward but Lichsteiner collected the ball and ran with it and then played the ball through to Affelay who was on the shoulder of the last man and he chipped the Keeper Number 21 will not be happy!!

14 mins:
Its action packed everywhere but Hazard is still terrorising Rafael but they just cant get onto the end of his crosses but I think something will come if this carries on.
Liverpool have missed a good chance at City Yaya Toure is so powerful and he collected the ball and drove at the City defence they backed off and he played a pass to Fellaini who tried to put it into the corner but Casillas got fingertips to it good save!!
Modric is still bossing the game at Everton but Gervinho did cut inside and unleash a shot that could have caused problems but Agger blocked the shot well and the ball was cleared.

16 mins –
Hull have come close Varela is having a very good devut so far always looking for the ball to take on the defender and he seems to be making the right choices he has put a lovely ball in that Kaka needed to tap in but he missed the ball.
Southampton look like they have woken up a little and it’s young Josh McEcharan who collected the ball and decided to shoot just skimmed the post best chance so far.

It’s a goal at the Etihad for Liverpool the corner gets put into the box looks like a poor corner but Gary Cahill noticed and lost his man ran to the front post and got the slightest of touches with his boot to guide it in!

20 mins :
It’s still very tight in the game at Villa with both teams having 50-50% possession and both struggling to break down each other’s defences there have been so many shots from outside the box, and none have really come close.

At the Etihad Liverpool are ahead with a goal from Cahill however since the goal Liverpool have dropped off and City have made a few chances with Suarez and Benzema coming close.
At the KC Stadium Kaka should have levelled the game earlier but he has missed another good chance! Wigan look to be struggling to cope with Hull now.
Still Very tight at Villa Park however I am feeling a goal to come here soon and let’s hope there is the game needs a goal for it to open up! The game hasn’t lived up to the hype so far!
At Goodison Birmingham have started to come back out on top, I cant believe how well Luka Modric has been playing he is the hearbeat of this team at the moment again the game needs a goal!
