Their response has brilliant, at the start of the game they allowed Arsenal to come onto them.

But Everton are back in this game in terms of confidence.

Fulham got their first Premier League win of the season against Hull last-time out and if they beat Coventry they will move out of the bottom three.

Asked if a weight has been lifted off his shoulders, Fulham boss Alvaro Arbeloa: "I know it is important for a coach, but I don't feel this. It's about my players and supporters. They deserve the win.

"When we were not winning we kept the belief. Now, we have the same target to win a tough game against Coventry. We have the reward we were looking for and we have to fight again."

Should Gianluigi Donnarumma do better there?

Two shots on target, two goals for the hosts.

Boubacar Kamara has been good as well, quietly always effective.

That reaction from goalkeeper Zion Suzuki, coming off his own player. Wow.

Matty Cash goes into the referee's book for a foul on Jeremy Doku.

It's a painful one down the back of the leg.

Just before that Johan Manzambi worked his way into the book for time wasting.

Guehi has looked dodgy since minute one of this game, almost as though he’s carrying an injury. No surprise how that goal came about.

Just imagine what Unai would have done with Arsenal if he was given seven years, a billion pounds, and allowances for poor periods of form. I for one am a very pleased Villa fan. We have the best manager in the league by far.

John McGinn picks out Alysson but his effort is blocked.

Manchester City being pegged back here.

The only two previous teams to win their first seven games of the season since the formation of the Premier League both went on to take the title: Chelsea in 2005-06 and Liverpool in 2019-20.

Regardless of whether any success Manchester City enjoy this season ultimately counts for anything, their form certainly hasn't been adversely affected by the club being found guilty of breaching the Premier League's financial rules.

They are one of only six top-flight teams in Uefa's 55 member nations with a perfect league record so far this season.

"The mood is very good," said Enzo Maresca, who has become the first manager to win his first seven Premier League games in charge of a team. "We are happy with our start but we are hungry for more wins."
