Crystal Palace v Liverpool, Sunderland v Chelsea, and more: Premier League – live

… cloudy in Ipswich …

… and it’s been raining in Sunderland.

Fabian Hurzeler on what makes Brighton good: “Brilliant at the basics. That’s our foundation. That’s what made us strong and hopefully will make us strong in the future. It’s not about first outplaying the opponent, it’s about outworking the opponent.”

Marco Rose is asked to identify Ipswich’s threat to Bournemouth today, and his response is, I have to say, vicious: “They want to win the game, I’m quite sure. It’s a nice ground.”
