Brentford remain unbeaten

Aston Villa and Brentford played out an entertaining draw at a rowdy Villa Park.

Both sets of fans supporters created a terrific atmosphere in glorious conditions and although there was plenty of energy and endeavour on show, the two sides struggled to create many clear cut opportunities. Former Southampton striker Danny Ings put in another impressive performance for the home side.

West Ham remain top for the day despite being held by Palace

Conor Gallagher scored the first goals of Patrick Vieira's Crystal Palace reign as West Ham's winning start to the campaign came to a frustrating end. This was a much improved attacking performance for Palace and they will be looking to build on that.
