Villa hold on to beat Saints

In the other fixture Aston Villa claimed their second victory of the season thanks to Jacob Ramsey's smart finish against Southampton

The midfielder reacted first to prod into the net after Gavin Bazunu could only parry Ollie Watkins' header.

It moves Steven Gerrard's side up to 13th, level on points but a place below Saints. 

Can Man City go top?

There are three more matches on Saturday, starting with Manchester City's trip to Wolverhampton Wanderers as they aim to knock Arsenal off top spot.

Tottenham Hotspur will aim to extend their unbeaten start to the season against bottom-club Leicester City, while Eddie Howe faces old club AFC Bournemouth who visit his Newcastle United team.
