Substitute Armando Broja headed in a last-minute equaliser as Burnley salvaged a 1-1 draw with Bournemouth, which ended the visitors' seven-game Premier League losing run. Bournemouth had been in charge of the contest and looked on course for victory when Antoine Semenyo picked out the bottom corner with a fine finish, capitalising on an untimely slip from Josh Laurent in the 67th minute, before it was cancelled out.

Armando Broja scored an injury-time equaliser as Burnley ended their seven-match losing run with a 1-1 draw at Bournemouth. Having seen a Jaidon Anthony goal ruled out for offside late in the first half, Burnley looked set to suffer an eighth successive defeat when Antoine Semenyo, heavily linked with a move away from Bournemouth with the likes of Manchester City and Manchester United thought to be interested, put the Cherries ahead.

The Blues then did not get going at St James' Park, a ground where they had lost 15 times in the Premier League era, and found themselves 2-0 down through a pair of first-half goals from striker Nick Woltemade. So poor was the first half that Chelsea gave up an expected goals figure of 1.97 - their worst in a first 45 minutes for more than two years.

Boxing Bryan Armen Graham straps in for live coverage of events in Miami as the former two-time world heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua meets the YouTuber turned boxer Jake Paul across eight three-minute rounds.

Here's everything you need to know about who is at risk and when the cut-off expires.

Newcastle United defender Tino Livramento has been ruled out of the visit of Chelsea after he sustained a knee injury in the League Cup quarter-final win against Fulham on Wednesday. "I don't think it's a serious injury, but the complication we have is that Tino has injured that knee before in a very similar area, so that always makes the potential recovery time a little bit longer," head coach Eddie Howe told Friday's press conference. "So I don't think we will see him before 2026."

Liverpool striker Hugo Ekitike has four goals in his last two Premier League matches and looks to be turning into one of Arne Slot's most important players. The France international, who signed from Eintracht Frankfurt in a deal worth up to 79m in the summer, now has seven league goals in 15 appearances.
