Good afternoon and welcome to Sports Mole's live text coverage of Saturday's football, which sees Chelsea, Manchester City and Everton all in action.
Our main focus this afternoon will be on the five Premier League 3pm kickoffs, which include matches that could have a major impact at both ends of the table.
Manchester City will go top for a few hours at least with victory over Crystal Palace, while Bournemouth and Norwich face off in a relegation battle at Dean Court. There is also Chelsea vs. Everton, Southampton vs. West Bromwich Albion and Newcastle United vs. West Ham United on offer.
We will also be keeping you updated with events in the Championship and lower leagues, as well notable happenings from elsewhere around Europe's top divisions.
