Marseille are awarded a penalty! Facundo Medina conceded the spot-kick Lens after pushing Matteo Guendouzi.Dimitri Payet scores to give Marseille the lead!

GOAL! Lens 0-1 Marseille

Oh dear! Valencia have scored following a wonderful counter-attack move, with United States star Yunus&nbsp;Musah scoring to make it 1-0. Atletico Madrid went to sleep there, and it's a terrible to concede. Musah's shot had plenty of power, though. A well-deserved lead.

GOAL! Atletico Madrid 0-1 Valencia

There it is! A last-gasp set-piece gamble comes to nothing, the whistle goes - and Manchester City's winning streak is at an end thanks to the efforts of Southampton.Pep Guardiola looks oddly sheepish as he meets Ralph Hasenhuttl. The Austrian has a grin that could light up the night sky though - and the roar of the St Mary's Stadium crowd tells you all you need to know.Aymeric Laporte's header meant Kyle Walker-Peters' superb finish was not enough - but it is the hosts who will still feel on top of the world with this one.

FT: Saints 1-1 City

The fightback is on!Manchester City have come out looking for an equaliser and they have got one, as Aymeric Laporte heads home to tie things up in Southampton.A huge sigh of relief from Pep Guardiola after his celebrations. But the job is not yet done.

FT: Man Utd 1-0 West Ham

You wait ages for a Premier League goal and then two turn up at once!It is some awful goalkeeping from Illan Meslier, usually one of the most reliable young shotstoppers across the top end of Europe, and the Leeds United man is fuming with himself.Jonjo Shelvey curls a low free-kick around the Whites' defensive wall from the left edge of the box and the Frenchman lets the ball slip easily beneath him at the far post, despite having it covered at first glance.

Later - much later - than the rest of their Premier League rivals - Brentford and Wolves have reached half-time in their game.A drone-enforced suspension midway through the first half means this one is only just hitting the interval - but it does not appear to have given either side an edge.This one remains without a goal to its name.

Only Atletico Madrid... 😅

Has this been the most Atletico Madrid game in recent memory? Probably.

Atletico Madrid 3-2 Valencia

Yet another close chance for Atletico Madrid, heading into the last 15 minutes of regular time. Angel Correa's shot is about a hair's width wide of the goal. The pain.

Atletico Madrid 1-2 Valencia

Another promising chance for Atletico, who have been putting a good amount of pressure on Valencia, but Mario Hermoso's header fails to meet the target. Sad.

The ball falls to Luis Suarez, the one person you'd probably want to have the ball fall to, and it skies it so that it lands in Mars.

Tensions rising within Atletico Madrid and Diego Simeone is going bananas on the touchline as he is adamant that his side should've gotten a call in their favour.

Luis Suarez is through on goal after recieving a wonderful cross, but his shot is blocked – he timed his run almost perfectly.

😳

Valencia lead Marseille by two goals, while Marseille are ahead against Lens courtesy a penalty.Diego Simeone's side are getting massively outclassed and outplayed here.

HT: Atletico Madrid 0-2 Valencia, Lens 0-1 Marseille

The home fans are going wild here after Thierry Correia trips Joao Felix, demanding for him to get a second yellow.Just a free-kick given for Atletico.

Atletico Madrid 0-1 Valencia

Valencia are still playing off of the momentum of their earlier goal, getting bodies in the Atletico box and putting pressure on the home side.

Koke is shown a yellow card after quite an intense tackle on Carlos Soler. No complaints from the Atletico man.

This game's been pretty stop-start since kick-off, with no real flow being shown from both teams. Valencia have a pretty awful record against Atletico Madrid, but can they capitalise on the home side's lacklustre form from recent weeks?

Atletico Madrid 0-0 Valencia

Atletico Madrid haven't kept a clean sheet since their 1-0 victory against Osasuna in November.It's a worrying statistic for Diego Simeone's side, who usually maintain a reputation for being solid at the back – not to mention the form of Jan Oblak, who's been conceding more goals as of late.

It's been a pretty subuded opening 10 minutes for both sides, although Yannick Carrasco has just taken Atletico Madrid's first real shot on goal – but it's cleared.Thierry Correia has been given a yellow card after a rough-looking challenge on Koke.

Another Marseille chance, as Cengiz Under takes a shot on goal that's saved by Wuilker Farinez.

Lens 0-0 Marseille

Lens have the first tangible effort of the evening here, as William Saliba helps clear Seko Fofana's effort.

We're into the last two games of this evening, with Atletico Madrid hosting Valencia and Lens facing off against Marseille at home.Atletico Madrid have just one once in their last La Liga games, and sit fourth in the table –&nbsp;16 points adrift of leaders Real Madrid.

The Flying Dutchman

The whistle goes at San Siro - and it has been an almighty escape for Inter!They have edged out a fighting Venezia side to take all three points - and boy, did they have to work for it.Spare a thought for the visitors. They came very close to a famous result here.

FT: Inter 2-1 Venezia

Heartbreak for Venezia! Inter have surely rescued themselves in the final minute of regular time!The underdogs have battled hard since their early lead but Edin Dzeko arrives a moment before injury time to head home a lovely cross with a powerful finish.The Scudetto holders will be holding their lead at the top of Serie A if it stays this way over the final few seconds.

Hero of the hour

A loss for Manchester City would be far from a problem in their pursuit of the title. It is whether it would trigger a sudden downturn that could make Pep Guardiola fear it.His side will be out to throw everything they have at their hosts over the next 45 minutes or so.

Back underway at St Mary's Stadium

Will Man Utd maintain new momentum?

Can Citizens spin it around?

Well, well, well. This is an unusual sight.A frustrated Manchester City trail against Southampton - and their hosts at St Mary's Stadium have been excellent value so far too.Kyle Walker-Peters has put them on the front foot. Expect a rocket of a pep talk from Pep Guardiola shortly.

One great escape has been completed in Manchester - and another Mancunian team will hope to make it an easier ride.Manchester City have just kicked off against Southampton at St Mary's Stadium.Pep Guardiola's men are on the hunt for another win - one which will bolster their watertight credentials to retain their crown once more.

Old Trafford roars with relief

Venezia stun the Serie A champions as the quarter-mark approaches!Thomas Henry is the man who hands them an unlikely lead, to put the visiting underdogs on top against Inter at San Siro.He'll remember that one for a long time, no matter what happens from here on out.

GOAL: Inter 0-1 Venezia

That's it! It's all over, after another marathon period of stoppage time - and Wolves have clung on to claim victory against Brentford in one of the stranger Premier League games of the season.A lengthy delay thanks to a drone incident in the first half meant that this game took a while to find its feet - but a second-half thriller more than made up for the wait, with the Bees edged out by their visitors.Bruno Lage savours victory. Thomas Frank looks frustrated in defeat.

FT: Brentford 1-2 Wolves

Wolves think they've sealed it for good - but no, VAR rides to Brentford's rescue!Adama Traore looks to have put this one to bed but the offside call goes against him after a check. The Bees still have a chance to snatch something.

A time for heroes

The reigning Scudetto holders will hope that they can avoid some late drama at San Siro though, compared to Manchester United's late dramas.Inter have just kicked off against Venezia, as they look to continue to build their lead at the summit of the Italian top-flight.A slip-up here and Milan will be breathing down their necks.

KO: Inter v Venezia

It's all over at Elland Road too - and it is relegation-threatened Newcastle United who have got the win they so need to keep their hopes of survival alive and kicking.Jonjo Shelvey's free-kick should have been dealt with better by Illan Meslier, but take nothing away from the drive offered by Eddie Howe's Magpies.For Marcelo Bielsa's Leeds, it is a missed chance to at least gather points - and keep themselves free of the race to the bottom below them that they may still be pulled into.

MARCUS RASHFORD RIDES TO MANCHESTER UNITED'S RESCUE IN THE FINAL SECONDS!West Ham appeal for offside, but there is absolutely no chance with that one!

Red Devils growing in confidence

We're in for a thrilling final quarter-hour in the Bundesliga!Georginio Rutter is off the bench for Hoffenheim and he comes up with another response for the hosts, to bring them back to a one-goal gap against Borussia Dortmund.Nervy times for Erling Haaland and his team-mates.

GOAL: Hoffenheim 2-3 Dortmund

The hunt for goals continues this afternoon in the Premier League - while they have flown in Germany, they have been less forthcoming here.But Leeds United - a side always good for a mad moment or two on their day - are back out with Newcastle now. Can Marcelo Bielsa's gung-ho Whites nail the Magpies? Or will Eddie Howe ensure that the visitors enjoy rich pickings?

Action resumes at Elland Road

The teams are back out at the Theatre of Dreams - and both Ralf Rangnick and David Moyes look lost in thought.How would the Premier League look if Manchester United had shown the latter half the consideration they did decades ago for Sir Alex Ferguson at the start of his tenure, when the results weren't always right?Could Moyes have overcome early hurdles to help them retain a place among Europe's elite? Or would he have contributed only further to the slope they've arguably slipped down compared to their main rivals, despite a few brilliant false dawns since?We'll never know. Here we go again.

Back underway at Old Trafford

That's not the way you want to celebrate your new deal, is it?David Raum gifts Borussia Dortmund a third to surely put this game to bed, as the Hoffenheim man turns the ball into his own net under pressure.Frustration for the hosts; freewheeling delight for their visitors.

GOAL: Hoffenheim 1-3 Dortmund

The teams are back out at Brentford Community Stadium, and this match will now go ahead following that earlier issue with a drone.Because the game clock did not stop, we're actually into the 53rd minute of this game - which means that we're going to have an indicated 19 additional minutes of injury-time.Will the pause have given the Bees time to work with those changes they were forced to make?

Brentford-Wolves resume play

The Black and Yellow hit back to take the lead once more!Marco Reus, a reliable talisman of this side when it needs a rescue package, powers them back on top against Hoffenheim.That will please the visitors no end.

GOAL: Hoffenheim 1-2 Dortmund

The whistle goes and both teams head off at Old Trafford, where it has been far from a pulsating afternoon in front of goal to date.Manchester United have had five shots to West Ham's one, but neither side have managed to stick an effort on target.There's plenty of time for this one to serve up a little more drama though, you'd trust.

HT: Man Utd 0-0 West Ham

Goalless at break in crucial Europe crunch clash

There's no further movement at Brentford to suggest this game will resume shortly, but we are into the thick of it again over in the Bundesliga.Borussia Dortmund are going to want an instant response to the frustrations of that late concession just before the break.Elsewhere, there's still no goals to report at either Old Trafford or Elland Road.

Salah and Mane set for World Cup showdown

There's been an absolute freak clash between two Brentford players that has forced their game with Wolves into a standstill.Mathias Jensen and Rico Henry both go for the same ball in the air and their poor communication hurts them quite literally. The pair crash into each other head first and send the other sprawling.There's a lot of blood on both faces and while they appear to be relatively lucid, both will not be able to remain on the pitch after that incident. It's a spanner in the works for Thomas Frank.

Bees forced into early swaps

There goes the whistle for the break and Borussia Dortmund trudge off with their heads hung low.They've been sucker-punched by Andrej Kramaric's late finish, having wrestled control early on through the ever-reliable Erling Haaland.Given how the Black and Yellow seem to let chances slip by their back-line too often this term to challenge Bayern Munich, how will they cope when they do not have their Norway international to bail them out?

HT: Hoffenheim 1-1 Dortmund

On the stroke of half-time, Dortmund have been pegged back!Andrej Kramaric comes up with an equaliser for hosts Hoffenheim, to frustrate the Black and Yellow mere seconds before the whistle goes for the interval.That's not what Erling Haaland and company ordered as they looked to preserve their advantage.
