Evening all, and welcome to Manchester City v Brentford!

Srterling feeds Mahrez down the right, and the defender heads behind; again, Brentford get it away, then when the ball comes back, Sterling floating over the top, De Bruyne, trying to cushion back in, is offside.

So the ref has a word, then Brentford clear the corner.

But again, it's Henry at the back post, conceding the corner.

Thanks to an own goal.

Ange Postecoglu is a proper manager.

He collided with Mahrez, but is back up and about.

Nipping inside to flip a decent ball to the far post, where Henry does well to leap and head behind, away from Mahrez; the corner comes to nowt and Brentford counter, but Canos makes a mess of things with plenty of men up with him.

So allow me to report that Christian Romero has just had his first Spurs goal confiscated for offside.

He's just settling into the game, and flicks a quick pass out to Sterling, playing his 450th league match tonight; the ensuing cross is intercepted by Ajer.

But joyful, so not entirely unrelated.

They move the ball across the back four, then Cancelo tries a dink for Foden, butit runs through for Raya.

Soton have dominated the early stages, and you can follow our blog of the match here:

And Ghoddos catches it nicely, moving away from Dias ... then falls over.

Which will suit Brentford nicely.

He sweeps out to Mahrez, who heads inside ... but Foden is offside.

Norwich, who might just get out of trouble, have taken the lead against Palace.

So BT were right and Google were wrong. In attack, meanwhile, it's Foden through the middle with Mahrez right and Sterling left.

Brentford set us away, following the taking of the knee. All black lives matter.

Here come the teams!

They've turned the lights down at the Etihad. It's so atmospheric I'm choking up.
