Mark Chapman introduces highlights of the day's two Premier League matches, plus the rest of the top-flight goals, with analysis from Alan Hansen and Danny Mills. Arsenal were looking to continue their title push against Everton in the pick of Sunday's fixtures. Last season's clash at the Emirates came in April, with a 0-0 draw doing neither team any favours in their battle for Champions League qualification. Elsewhere, Fulham take on Aston Villa. Villa were in the midst of their worst top- flight start since 1986 when they lost 1-0 at Fulham last season. Both sides have endured a tough opening to this campaign, and will be equally desperate for three points at Craven Cottage.

Mark Chapman introduces Premier League highlights, with Newcastle United in action against Manchester City and Stoke City playing Liverpool. Manchester City declared their intent to regain the title they won in 2011-12 by beating Newcastle 4-0 in their first match of the current campaign. However, Alan Pardew's men have recovered from that disastrous start to climb the table, thanks largely to the goal-scoring form of France striker Loic Remy. But City boast plenty of firepower themselves, with Sergio Aguero, Alvaro Negredo and Edin Dzeko all proven finishers. Liverpool's victory against Stoke in August was the first of three successive 1-0 wins for Brendan Rodgers' side. However, the Reds know from experience that the Potters are tough nuts to crack on home turf - Liverpool have lost their last three Premier League games at the Stadium of Light. Mark and guests also look back at the goals from Saturday's seven matches.
