Premier League news and buildup, EFL and more – matchday live

Hello, good morning and welcome to Matchday live. We have five Premier League fixtures this afternoon as Leeds United travel to face Aston Villa, Brentford host Brighton, Chelsea take on Burnley, West Ham host Bournemouth and Manchester City face Newcastle. Mikel Arteta has insisted the word “bottlers” is not in his vocabulary and that Arsenal must take criticism “on the chin” after surrendering a 2-0 lead against the bottom side, Wolves, in midweek.

Thomas Frank, sacked by Tottenham last week, is believed to be a contender to take over at Crystal Palace in the summer. Palace would also be interested in Bournemouth’s Andoni Iraola, whose contract expires at end of June. The former Republic of Ireland forward Robbie Keane, who is managing Ferencvaros, and Rayo Vallecano’s Iñigo Pérez have also been mooted as potential replacements.

Crystal Palace have decided against sacking Oliver Glasner despite his latest public outburst on Friday when the manager said he was “just not good enough” to turn around the club’s fortunes.
