Gary Lineker introduces highlights, reaction and analysis from the weekend’s Premier League fixtures so far, including Manchester City's game against fellow title contenders Chelsea. Chelsea head coach Thomas Tuchel got the better of his Manchester City counterpart Pep Guardiola in their first three meetings of 2021, including the Champions League final, but a goal by Gabriel Jesus gave reigning champions City a victory at Stamford Bridge in the most recent encounter in September.
