Hull City 1-3 Arsenal, Manchester City 4-0 Bournemouth: Premier League as it happened
Pep Guardiola's side can move five points clear at the top of the table.
3pm [BST] kick-offs:
Hull City 1-4 Arsenal
Manchester City 4-0 Bournemouth
Leicester City 3-0 Burnley
West Brom 4-2 West Ham
Half time whistles have been blown. West Ham have now conceded seven goals in their last 94 minutes of football after a woeful half at the Hawthorns. Manchester City are cruising while Arsenal should be two up after Alexis Sanchez missed a penalty. Leicester left it late, but Islam Slimani's goal means there has been action in all four of our 3pm kick offs.
Hull City 0-1 Arsenal
Manchester City 2-0 Bournemouth
Leicester City 1-0 Burnley
West Brom 3-0 West Ham
Hal Robson-Kanu is among the West Brom subs today after his late arrival at the Hawthorns, while Salomon Rondon returns to lead the Baggies' attack in place of Saido Berahino.
Michail Antonio slots in at right-back once again for the Hammers with Sam Bryam dropped. Angelo Ogbonna is also in to replace Winston Reid.
Vincent Kompany is back among the Manchester City substitutes where he is joined by John Stones. Aleksandar Kolarov and Nicolas Otamendi are the partnership at centre-half today. There are four changes from the former Barcelona and Bayern Munich boss in all with Kelechi Iheanacho, Nolito, Gael Clichy and Bacary Sagna all returning. Ilkay Gundogan makes his Premier League debut.
Jack Wilshere meanwhile makes his first starting appearance for Bournemouth. Callum Wilson drops to the bench.
Leicester City have made three changes to the side that eased to victory over Club Brugge on Wednesday. Summer signing Ron-Robert Zieler comes in for his full Premier League debut while Danny Simpson has recovered from injury to return at right back. Record signing Islam Slimani also comes in for his first league appearance.
There's also a full debut in the ranks for Burnley with record signing Jeff Hendrick making his first start at the King Power Stadium today. Scott Arfield also comes into replace Sam Vokes.
Mike Phelan names an unchanged team for the fifth Premier League game in a row. He hasn't had much of a choice for most of those games, but opts against introducing the likes of Ryan Mason and Will Keane. The only change on the bench sees Dieumerci Mbokani replace James Weir.
Meanwhile for Arsenal, there is is once again no room for Granit Xhaka in midfield with Arsene Wenger again looking to Francis Coquelin and Santi Cazorla. Theo Walcott also comes back into the starting XI with Alex Iwobi retaining his place.
Alexis Sanchez and Lucas Perez have both been preferred to Olivier Giroud up front this season and a knock the Frenchman received midweek could take him out of the equation again. Arsene Wenger told reporters on Friday his striker had suffered a toe injury, before adding about Aaron Ramsey:
I had hoped he'd be back but he is not ready. There is no added problem, we are just cautious because we don't want any setback with his hamstring, Tuesday is too early.
Team news: Manchester City
Sergio Aguero will serve the second of his three-match ban this afternoon after netting a hat-trick midweek against Borussia Monchengladbach in the Champions League. Kelechi Iheanacho was a fine understudy in last week's Manchester derby, getting on the scoresheet and will surely start again today.
Ilkay Gundogan was exquisite on his debut against Gladbach but after a long injury lay-off, Pep Guardiola is wary of starting him twice in the same week. Leroy Sane could make his full debut for the club.
Team news: Hull City
Former Norwich City loanee Dieumerci Mbokani is in contention to make his debut for the Tigers this afternoon. He was one of six late additions to the wafer-thin Hull squad before the transfer deadline along with Will Keane, David Marshall, James Weir, Markus Henriksen and Ryan Mason but none of them have started for their new side since. That could change this afternoon.
Team news: Arsenal
Olivier Giroud has not started a game for the Gunners all season and that wait could go on this afternoon. The France international suffered a toe injury in the mid-week clash with Paris Saint-Germain. No chances are being taken with Aaron Ramsey, who is still recovering from the hamstring injury suffered on the opening day of the season but Theo Walcott is in contention to come back into the starting XI this afternoon.
Gabriel, who has not played yet this term after picking up an ankle injury during pre-season, is nearing his return but is unlikely to feature today. Tuesday's League Cup clash against Nottingham Forest could see him return to the first-team.
Petr Cech will also return in goal after David Ospina was preferred mid-week.
Life at Chelsea was all going rather well under Antonio Conte until Friday night. A humbling 2-1 defeat home to Liverpool means Manchester City have the opportunity to move five points clear at the top of the Premier League this afternoon if they can maintain their 100 percent start to the season. Everton can however haul them back again; they are in action against Middlesbrough in the evening kick-off.
After a draining encounter with Paris Saint-Germain mid-week, Arsenal travel to Hull City this afternoon who's positive start to the season continues despite the bewildering uncertainty surrounding Mike Phelan's future at the club. Under the caretaker boss, the newly promoted club have taken seven points from four and yet the former Manchester United assistant still doesn't know if he will be in charge next week.
Leicester City got off to a dream start in the Champions League on Wednesday but will need a response in the league after they were dismantled by Liverpool last weekend. And after surrendering a 2-0 lead before losing at 4-2 at home to Watford, West Ham will be looking to keep things tighter at the Hawthorns this afternoon.
Team news coming up.
