Welcome to our live coverage of the weekend's opening Premier League match, as leaders Chelsea visit Newcastle United.

There goes the final whistle! Newcastle win 2-1. The 10 men hang on. A famous victory for Newcastle. Chelsea's unbeaten record goes at St James' Park.

Luis with the cross. Droga almost on the end of it, but not quite. Drogba has provided a real threat for Chelsea.

Ivanovic smashes a shot from 25 yards well over the bar. Newcastle inching towards the winning line.

Ball breaks to Terry in the home box, but he can't direct the header at goal. No power on the finish, but Newcastle have three minutes to survive.

Alnwick off his line to gather the Fabregas corner amid a masse of bodies. So much strain on Newcastle's 10 men.

We are into SIX minutes of time added on. Would you believe that? Pardew can't. The home fans trying to roar their side on to victory. But Chelsea have another corner.

Alnwick somehow manages to keep out the swerving hit from distance by Luis. Newcastle living on the edge out there.

Fine stop by Alnwick as he tips the Costa effort over his bar. Another corner coming up for Chelsea, but Dummett sweeps it out.

Terry and Cahill joining the Chelsea attack. Drogba offside as he drills a volley into the side of the home net. Newcastle so near yet so far.

Dummett out to block the Costa cross, but Chelsea will have another corner coming up. Referee Martin Atkinson wanting a word or two with Coloccini and Ivanovic.

GOAL! Drogba rises above Alnwick to head into the net from the Fabregas free-kick. What a finish we have here. 2-1 now to the 10 men of Newcastle.

Ameobi is going to depart the scene to be replaced by Williamson. How will this affect the balance of the match?

RED CARD! Steven Taylor takes out Schurrle with a late sliding challenge. Second booking for him, and that means red. The home team lead 2-0, but are down to 10 men.

Fabregas is also booked for a late one on Perez seconds earlier.

Costa is going to be booked for complaining about failing to be awarded a penalty. Chelsea losing their cool.

GOAL! Fine finish from Cisse after Chelsea failed to deal with the Sissoko effort. Chelsea cut open on the break. 2-0. Surely game over now.

Hazard hits a post with Alnwick beaten! So close to the equaliser. Is this going to be Newcastle's day? You imagine so.
