GOAL! Hull City 0-2 Leeds United (Hernandez 47). It hasn’t taken long for Leeds to double their advantage. Jack Harrison crosses long from the left. Patrick Bamford causes confusion in the middle. The ball finds Helder Costa down the inside-right channel. He slips in Pablo Hernandez, who fires a low diagonal shot into the bottom left.
Here we go, then. It’ll be a little while before the 3pm teamsheets land, so in the meantime let’s concentrate on the lunchtime kick-offs. The M23 derby is goalless at half-time, the square root of nix having occurred so far down on the south coast. Rob Smyth is doing his best with that.
Hull City v Leeds United has been a bit more eventful, thankfully. The teams were separated at the break by Luke Ayling’s deflected long-range strike on five minutes. Pablo Hernandez has hit the Hull crossbar, while Leeds keeper Illan Meslier, making his league debut for the club at the age of 19, has been distributing the ball in an esoteric fashion. All set up for a great second half, with Leeds looking to close the gap on leaders West Brom, for a couple of hours at least, and Hull desperately looking for something that’ll put a little more distance between themselves and the relegation places.
Good afternoon!
There aren’t too many Premier League fixtures being played this afternoon. Just the five. And yet it could prove to be quite a significant day in the 2019-20 Premier League. Brighton and Crystal Palace kicked off an hour ago, and you can follow that live, right here, right now, with our old pal Rob Smyth. Today’s other fixtures are as follows (all 3pm unless stated):
- Bournemouth v Chelsea
- Newcastle United v Burnley
- West Ham United v Southampton
- Watford v Liverpool (5.30pm)
So with all the teams at the bottom, bar League Cup finalists Aston Villa, playing, some potentially lethal shots could be fired in the relegation battle. Liverpool could also stretch their lead at the top. It’s a big day. There’s plenty to be keeping up with elsewhere, too, with West Bromwich Albion, Leeds United and Fulham all in Championship action. Other fixtures are additionally available. Is the Clockwatch vidiprinter on? It’s on!
