Afternoon. We’ve got loads of 3pm games just three Premier League matches kicking off at 3pm today. Thanks Europa League! Who knows, though, we could have 27 goals if we see three repeats of last night’s ridiculous scoreline at Southampton. Marco Silva gave himself some room to breathe last weekend as his Everton side impressed in a 2-0 home win over West Ham. Everton travel to Brighton this afternoon looking to build on that win. The Seagulls went down 2-1 to Aston Villa last weekend after having Aaron Mooy sent off in the first half but in their last home match they demolished Spurs 3-0 and will hope to get on the front foot against the Toffees, who haven’t won away in the league this season.

We also have what might be a spicy match at the London Stadium, where West Ham take on Sheffield United. The Blades hate the Hammers because they believe Carlos Tevez, who relegated them in 2007 after scoring the winning goal against Manchester United at Old Trafford, should not have been eligible to play for them. Jacob Steinberg goes into greater detail about the bad blood in this fine piece of writing here:

Club’s supporters’ minds will start to wander to potential trips next season after long-awaited return to Champions League The roar at kick-off, the roar that had been there in most of the previous 18 home games of this season, was maybe given a few extra decibels here. Added to renewed hope, present all season, was a touch of yes, this really is happening. Then came the moment, with fireworks being wedged into the tops of milk bottles, at the beginning of stoppage time, when Nick Pope was finally forced into some sort of movement to deny Timothy Castagne, to make sure it did happen. It came after one of the Newcastle keeper’s slowest days of the season, after what had often resembled a half-pitch, beat-the-packed-defence training exercise against a Leicester team largely too meek to threaten Geordie dreams.

Richarlison’s first Tottenham goals punish Marseille for Mbemba’s red card

By -
There was the obligatory pre-match footage of Lucas Moura’s winner at Ajax and then the declaration on the big screen at Tottenham’s magnificent stadium, one that is built to stage these kind of Champions League nights. “We’re back.” For so long, it appeared that the grand return after a two-season absence would fall flat, even when Marseille were reduced to ten men in the 47th minute following Chancel Mbemba’s last-man foul on Son Heung-min. It was a dreadful misjudgment by the former Newcastle centre-half.
