Click 'Get Involved' at the top of this page to have your say The Sunderland faithful are doing an excellent job of providing a pantomime background to this festive fixture. Cheers and boos in all the right places. Loving it! Carl Sunderland 0-0 Newcastle Paul Robinson Former Leeds and England keeper on BBC Radio 5 Live at Stadium of Light Nick Woltemade has been isolated when the ball does go up and he is looking for support around him. Crystal Palace 0-0 Man City Nico Gonzalez has his pocket picked by Yeremy Pino, who scampers into the Manchester City penalty area before being crowded out. Nottingham Forest 0-0 Tottenham Nick Mashiter BBC Sport football news reporter at the City Ground There is little flow to the game. A lot of niggling fouls have stopped either side from gaining any sort of momentum. Nottingham Forest 0-0 Tottenham Off the ball clash between Murillo and Xavi Simons which sees the Tottenham player hit the deck. VAR has a look at it but decides Simons runs into, and trips over, Murillo who doesn't see him coming. Sunderland 0-0 Newcastle For all the frantic nature of this game, there has still not been a shot on or off target yet, from either side. Crystal Palace 0-0 Man City Jobi Mc Anuff Former Crystal Palace winger on BBC 5 Live Extra It's a fantastic chance. Nico O'Reilly is playing Pino on. A brilliant ball over the top from Adam Wharton, wonderfully weighted. Pino takes a touch and he's in the penalty area and has to score but clips the cross bar. Crystal Palace 0-0 Man City What a chance. Yeremy Pino is put clean in on the Manchester City goal by Adam Wharton. He beats Gianluigi Donnarumma all ends up but his effort hits the crossbar and flies over. The visitors were appealing for offside but Nico O'Reilly looked to be playing the Spain midfielder on. Huge let off for City. Sunderland 0-0 Newcastle Paul Robinson Former Leeds and England keeper on BBC Radio 5 Live at Stadium of Light When I watched Newcastle at Bayer Leverkusen there were signs that they were tiring towards the end of the game. I was expecting more changes from Eddie Howe today. West Ham 1-1 Aston Villa Aston Villa are dominating possession, but no chances since our two early goals. Click 'Get Involved' at the top of this page to have your say Never thought I'd see Palace vs City described as a top of table clash. What Glasner has done and the hard work the team and backroom staff have put in at the club in such a short space of time is amazing. C'mon Palace! Adam Sunderland 0-0 Newcastle Paul Robinson Former Leeds and England keeper on BBC Radio 5 Live at Stadium of Light Newcastle are holding a very high backline. It is a difficult one for Malick Thiaw. It bounced and dropped in front of him facing his own goal. Sunderland 0-0 Newcastle Newcastle defender Malick Thiaw may have been a bit nervous when he has to steer the ball behind for a corner and that easily could have gone wrong. But Sandro Tonali is then there to head the Sunderland corner away. Nottingham Forest 0-0 Tottenham Tottenham's first chance and it falls to Richarlison, but he can only nod Randal Kolo Muani's cross wide of the far post. Sunderland 0-0 Newcastle Paul Robinson Former Leeds and England keeper on BBC Radio 5 Live at Stadium of Light Tino Livramento got pulled out of position, and Talbi is just outside the 18-yard box. All he had to do was lift it into a dangerous area, but instead he walloped it out for a throw-in on the far side. Crystal Palace 0-0 Man City One long ball forward, which is challenged for by Crystal Palace forward Jean-Philippe Mateta and Manchester City are all over the place at the back. In the end Nathaniel Clyne prods an effort wide. Sunderland 0-0 Newcastle Anthony Gordon gets in a threatening position for the visitors, but a huge roar when two Sunderland players close him down and get the ball. Everything positive the hosts are doing is met by great cheers by the Stadium of Light faithful. Sunderland 0-0 Newcastle Ciaran Kelly BBC Sport reporter at the Stadium of Light It's loud inside the Stadium of Light. Every Sunderland tackle is being roared by the home support. Every touch by a Newcastle United player is being booed. The noise that followed after the hosts were awarded a first corner kick was deafening. Sunderland 0-0 Newcastle A chance for a cross from Sunderland's Chemsdine Talbi on his left foot, but he overcooks it with the ball sailing over the heads of everyone and out for a throw-in on the opposite flank.
