Your support helps us to tell the story

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

Arsenal, Chelsea and Manchester City are all in action from 3pm on a busy day in the Premier League, with Liverpool, Spurs and Manchester United also featuring in a top six-heavy afternoon.

With Liverpool beating Spurs 2-1 in the day’s early game, Arsenal, Chelsea and especially City will hope to make up any ground when they kick-off at 3pm. The Gunners face a difficult trip to Newcastle, having experienced problems at St James’ Park in the past, while Chelsea cost fellow Blues Cardiff City at Stamford Bridge and City face Fulham at the Etihad.

Elsewhere, Huddersfield Town take on Crystal Palace and Bournemouth host Leicester City, while United travel south to Watford in the day’s evening kick-off that is available live here.

Newcastle 0-2 Arsenal

So, different goals for different...needs

Newcastle 0-2 Arsenal

Still no Salomon Rondon or Jonjo Shelvey for Newcastle, which makes absolutely no sense. Now would be a great time to bring the pair on and unleash havoc on the Arsenal defence.

Bourenmouth 4-0 Leicester

Things are getting worse, and worse for Leicester who will be waiting for the final whistle. A ball into the box isn't cleared and Adam Smith is unmarked and fires in from close range.

Chelsea 3-1 Cardiff

81: It's poor from Sol Bamba, he lunges in on Willian and brings him down with a clumsy challenge. Eden Hazard has the chance to wrap up his hat trick and does so with a great penalty into the top corner.

Chelsea 4-1 Cardiff

83: Willian gets in on the action.

Marcos Alonso gets forward and squares a ball to Willian on the edge of the box. With his first touch, he curls the ball into the top corner, it's a lovely finish.

Newcastle 0-2 Arsenal

What a save from Petr Cech. He'll be happy with his game after a difficult few games. Joselu gets a good header to the ball but Cech tips it over the bar.

Bournemouth 4-1 Leicester

The comeback is on!

Leicester City get themselves onto the scoreboard and it will be little more than a consolation goal.

James Maddison scores from the spot.

Jack Watson15 September 2018 16:46

Newcastle 1-2 Arsenal 

Now this could be a comeback!

Ciaran Clark gives Newcastle a lifeline with a header from Fernandez's cross.

Jack Watson15 September 2018 16:47

Bournemouth 4-2 Leicester

Maybe, just maybe, the comeback is genuinely on!

Marc Albrighton gets Leicetser's second

Jack Watson15 September 2018 16:48

Newcastle 1-2 Arsenal

Arsenal held on to beat Newcastle despite a late fightback after Cieran Clark's 90th minute goal. 

Granit Xhaka scored a stunning free kick and Mesut Ozil finished a nice move to give Arsenal a hard-battled win.
