Aston Villa 3-2 Blackpool: Villa, having scored only once in their last four league games, welcome the Seasiders - this season's surprise package - who have conceded 23 goals so far this season
Blackpool have three away wins already this season, start the game with six players making their Premier League debuts and have the first chance of the game through ex-Villa striker Marlon Harewood
Still with few options in attack, Villa look to their wide players and (via a deflection and the post) Stewart Downing, like Marc Albrighton at the weekend, obliges by cutting in to score with his weaker foot
Harewood equalises but Ashley Young feeds Nathan Delfouneso to put Villa back ahead (having had an earlier goal ruled out), only for ex-Villa trainee and ex-Birmingham forward DJ Campbell to bring it back to 2-2
As so often, Blackpool have played their part in a breathtaking second half but, as at home to Manchester City, they lose 3-2 when James Collins heads home Stewart Downing's corner
Chelsea 1-0 Fulham: The only goal of the West London derby comes from Michael Essien's stooping header - a rarity previous to his two headed goals against West Ham in Septermber - from Salomon Kalou's left-wing cross
The win turns sour in the final seconds when Essien is sent off for a two-footed jump for the ball with Clint Dempsey under his studs, there's no contact but looks reckless
Everton 1-1 Bolton Wanderers: Of the three Lancashire derbies, either side in this game could go fifth: Kevin Davies turns out for Bolton for the 300th time, Yakubu and Sean Coleman are benched for the Toffees
Is the Toffee's six-match unbeaten run over? Phil Jagielka, impeccable for much of the game, gives the ball away near the half-way line and seconds later it cannons off Ivan Klasnic and in to the Everton net
Marouane Fellaini, 26 yellow cards in his Merseyside career and making his return to the side, is sent off late on for a nasty tackle but Everton equalise in injury time through Jermaine Beckford's first league goal for the club
Manchester City 0-0 Manchester United: Fourth-plays-second in the Manchester derby and pressure on City boss Roberto Mancini is not lightened by a late fitness test for top scorer and ex-United striker Carlos Tevez
Tevez does start for City, as does James Milner, replacing the suspended Mario Balotelli, while United, unbeaten in a competitive match for seven months, make five changes in a bore draw to forget
Newcastle United 1-2 Blackburn Rovers: Ex-Magpies boss Sam Allardyce gets a happy return two minutes in to the game when Cheik Tiote is robbed of the ball and Morten Gamst Pederson scores
Kevin Nolan, Andy Carroll and Joey Barton start to show their frustration with the game and with each other but the anguish lifts the moment Carroll nods home Barton's free-kick in the second half
For the fourth consecutive time, Rovers take three points away from Newcastle: Fabricio Coloccini ducks out of a Paul Robinson clearance, and Mike Williamson is muscled off the ball by Jason Roberts to score past Tim Krul
West Ham United 2-2 West Bromwich Albion: Luis Boa Morte holds back Odemwingie in the West Ham box from a corner and the Nigerian scores the resulting penalty in front of the Bobby Moore Stand
West Ham are back on level terms just before half-time as West Brom dawdle on the ball in their own half, lose it and Carlton Cole lays it on for captain Scott Parker to score a blistering 25-yarder
Referee Mike Dean awards his second penalty at the Bobby Moore end of Upton Park, this time to the Hammers, which Frederic Piquionne puts away for his second goal of the week
For the second time in a week, West Ham go to sleep, let a lead slip and have to settle for a point when they give Chris Brunt all the time he wants to pick out Pablo Ibanez at the far post
Wigan Athletic 1-1 Liverpool: Fernando Torres gets his fourth goal in three games, his first goal away since March, as Wigan push up and leave the Spaniard free to score from Steven Gerrard's through ball
Wigan make a fist of the game and get a deserved equaliser from Hugo Rodallega though Dirk Kuyt has a goal chalked off for offside and Gerrard hits the crossbar for the Reds
Wolverhampton Wanderers 0-2 Arsenal: There's only 38 seconds on the clock when Tomas Rosicky's cross is met by Marouane Chamakh, unmarked, to score the first of four clear chances for the visitors
Life is cruel for Wolves, their pressure brings everything but a goal, one Lukas Fabianski save seeing Arsenal's Polish goalkeeper then start a counter-attack from which Chamakh get his and the Gunners' second, game over
