Hull 0-2 Chelsea, West Ham 1-1 Middlesbrough: Premier League as it happened

That is all from me for now, but stay tuned to IBTimes UK for post-match reaction from today's lunchtime clash between Swansea and Liverpool.

Myself and Tony Mogan will also be back tomorrow to bring you coverage of another bumper afternoon of Premier League football, with Manchester United vs Stoke, Tottenham vs Manchester City, Leicester vs Southampton and Burnley vs Arsenal all on the agenda.

You can also join sport editor Nick Howson at Hazeltine in Chaska, Minnesota for live updates from day two of the Ryder Cup.

Goodbye.

So a comfortable victory for Chelsea, who were far and away the better side after half-time. They will face much tougher tests than this throughout the season, but it will nevertheless be a relief for Conte to halt that winless run and see his side claim a clean sheet after their recent defensive lapses.

West Ham avoid defeat thanks to a wonderful goal from Payet, but fans will remain concerned with only one league win to shout about so far this season. Still no top-flight victories for Moyes at Sunderland, but, like their fellow strugglers, they just about manage to avoid another demoralising loss.

The spoils shared at Vicarage Road after an enthralling second half.

Full-time scores

Hull 0-2 Chelsea

Sunderland 1-1 West Brom

Watford 2-2 Bournemouth

West Ham 1-1 Middlesbrough

Four minutes of stoppage time to be played at Hull. Oscar and Pedro, on for Hazard and Moses, have both had good opportunities to extend that comfortable Chelsea lead. Courtois was also called into action to deal with a hopeful shot from Huddlestone.

Nathaniel Chalobah is on for his Premier League debut. At last!

Sunderland look to have avoided a fourth straight league defeat after substitute Van Aanholt finishes from Duncan Watmore's cross.

A reminder that the Black Cats led Crystal Palace 2-0 at the Stadium of the Light last weekend, only to lose 3-2 in the dying seconds...

Goal: Sunderland 1-1 West Brom (Patrick van Aanholt)

Robertson brings down the impressive Moses right on the corner of the penalty area. Willian's free-kick reaches Costa at the back post, but his ensuring strike is wild and well over.

Arsenal loanee Jack Wilshere strikes the post for Bournemouth before being replaced by Dan Gosling. His long wait to complete a full 90 minutes of football continues.

Chelsea are opening Hull up at will now and Willian is denied a penalty following a robust challenge from Davies.

Phelan has sent on both Shaun Maloney and Hernandez in this second half, but it would take something truly special for them to salvage anything from this game now.

What a game we have developing at Vicarage Road. King scores just seconds after coming on for Bournemouth, but within two minutes Watford equalise once again thanks to a header from wonderfully named substitute Success.

After a lacklustre start to the afternoon, it is now absolutely raining goals.

At the KCOM, Hull continue to struggle after a promising first half and allow Matic the freedom of Yorkshire to stride into the penalty area. His initial shot ricochets off Davies to Costa, who strokes home his sixth goal of the season at the first time of asking.

Goal: Watford 2-2 Bournemouth (Isaac Success)

Goal: Hull 0-2 Chelsea (Diego Costa)

Goal: Watford 1-2 Bournemouth (Josh King)

Finally something for West Ham fans to cheer at the Olympic Stadium. Payet draws Bilic's side level with 'Boro courtesy of a typically impressive skillful solo goal.

It's all very messy from Hull in midfield and they concede possession far too cheaply as Robertson's header goes astray after a risky cross-field pass.

There then follows a couple of weak missed tackles on Costa before Willian is allowed to cut inside onto his right foot and bend a terrific shot into the top corner.

Goal: Hull 0-1 Chelsea (Willian)

Goal: West Ham 1-1 Middlesbrough (Dimitri Payet)

Woodwork!

Kante releases Costa, who easily rounds the recklessly impulsive Marshall only to see his goal-bound effort deflected against the post by Livermore.

Kante then blasts the rebound into the stands. He should have done much better there.

All square at Vicarage Road. Captain Deeney has notched his 99th goal for Watford after dispatching a cutback from Nordin Amrabat.

Yet more misery for West Ham at their unpopular new home. Middlesbrough take the lead after Stuani's header from a Stewart Downing corner is adjudged to have crossed the line before Mark Noble can clear.

Goal: West Ham 0-1 Middlesbrough (Cristhian Stuani)

Goal: Watford 1-1 Bournemouth (Troy Deeney)

N'Golo Kante is the latest Chelsea player to have a shot saved by Marshall during the early stages of this second half.

A stoppage in play now as Meyler receives some treatment. Hull cannot afford to lose anymore defenders with Michael Dawson, Moses Odubajo and Alex Bruce all still sidelined along with goalkeeper Allan McGregor.

Alonso has a tame long-range shot saved by Marshall, who then has to tip over a better attempt from Hazard.

Sandwiched in between those two efforts was a Hull corner won by Snodgrass. No danger for Courtois.

Back underway on Humberside. No personnel changes from either Phelan or Conte at the break.

Half-time scores

Hull 0-0 Chelsea

Sunderland 0-1 West Brom

Watford 0-1 Bournemouth

West Ham 0-0 Middlesbrough

Positive play from Mason as he picks up possession before tearing forward and unleashing a long-distance effort that is pushed wide by Courtois.

The subsequent corner comes to nothing.

Two minutes of added time signalled at Hull, where Henriksen does brilliantly to head clear Hazard's cross before it can reach Costa in the six-yard box.

In Stratford, West Ham have struck the crossbar through Mark Noble.

An unmarked Luiz is given time and space to make a run at Chelsea's latest free-kick, but he can't quite generate enough power on his back-post header to test Marshall.

Livermore is now walking a tightrope after following his yellow card with a foul on Hazard.

A yellow card apiece now as the sluggish Nemanja Matic is booked for a foul on Henriksen. Livermore is also cautioned for a handball that came after a poor pass from Meyler.

Chelsea begin to step up the pressure, only to lose momentum following a corner when Alonso heads Moses' cross well wide. Curtis Davies then makes an inch-perfect tackle to prevent Hazard from latching on to Costa's pass.

Sunderland's struggles under Moyes continue as Chadli fires across Jordan Pickford for his third goal in four appearances since joining West Brom from Tottenham in a club-record £13m deal.

Goal: Sunderland 0-1 West Brom (Nacer Chadli)

Robertson charges down the left and is brought down by Moses. Hull have a free-kick in a dangerous position, but Costa is able to clear away from his own box.

Moses is then retrospectively booked for the infringement.

Now we're rolling. Wilson nods home a deflected front-post cross from Junior Stanislas to give Bournemouth a first-half lead at Vicarage Road.

Goal: Watford 0-1 Bournemouth (Callum Wilson)

Half an hour gone and still no goals from around the four 15.00 BST kick-offs.

Robertson heads behind under little pressure after Alonso's cross is deflected by Meyler. No problem for Hull goalkeeper David Marshall as he easily claims Willian's corner.

Chelsea appeal for a penalty after the tricky Moses bamboozles Robertson before falling after contact with the outstretched leg of Diomande. Referee Anthony Taylor is unmoved.

Henriksen provides an excellent deep delivery from the right flank, but Luiz just gets his head to the ball first ahead of Mbokani and Ryan Mason then sees two efforts blocked.

At the other end, Luiz sends a brilliant long ball through for Costa. He takes a good first touch to set up Willian, who scuffs his shot wide.

Chelsea on top now as Moses looks to weave his way through the Hull defence but is just about stopped by Andrew Robertson. Hazard then tees up Willian, but his low effort is driven across the face of goal and wide.

An early blow for West Ham, who have lost right-back Sam Byram to injury during the early stages of their clash with Middlesbrough. He is stretchered off on a buggy and replaced by Alvaro Arbeloa.

It never rains but it pours, eh?

Former Norwich striker Mbokani, on a season-long loan from Dynamo Kiev, looks sharp early on for Hull but his latest touch is heavy and runs through to Courtouis.

Hazard then drives forward to win a free-kick for Chelsea, but Luiz's effort cannons straight back off the wall.

Jake Livermore is posing early danger for Chelsea with his lofted balls over the top of that three-man backline. The 26-year-old's latest pass is again intended for the run of Mbokani, but he puts too much on it and Courtois can collect.

Adama Diomande will also look to feed off that kind of delivery.

Conte, as he did in the latter stages of that sobering 3-0 defeat to Arsenal last Saturday, has opted to deploy a three-man defence this afternoon. Cesar Azpilicueta, Luiz and stand-in captain Gary Cahill are all lining up as central defenders, with Alonso and Moses playing further forward as wing-backs.

It will be interesting to see how that tactic plays out.

An early chance for Hull after David Luiz brings down Mbokani on the edge of the box. Thibaut Courtois tips over Robert Snodgrass' impressive free-kick and Chelsea manage to hack clear the resulting corner.

We are underway at the KCOM Stadium after a minute's applause for Hull fan Megan Pratt, who sadly lost her battle with cancer this week. The 13-year-old was due to be guest of honour at today's game.

Phelan swaps three, with loanees Dieumerci Mbokani and Markus Henriksen making their full league debuts in place of Abel Hernandez and Tom Huddlestone.

David Meyler comes in at right-back for the suspended Ahmed Elmohamady, dismissed during last weekend's 5-1 thrashing at Liverpool, with James Weir included as a substitute.

Two changes from Conte, who, according to The Telegraph's Matt Law, becomes the first Chelsea manager since Andre Villas-Boas to drop a fit Branislav Ivanovic. He is replaced by deadline day signing Marcos Alonso after another dreadful run of form, while Cesc Fabregas makes way in midfield for Victor Moses.

Crucially for the Blues and their recent defensive issues, John Terry is still not ready to return from an ankle injury sustained against Swansea. Mikel John Obi, yet to make a single appearance for his club so far this term after captaining Nigeria to bronze medals at the Rio 2016 Olympics, misses out again with a muscular problem.

Kurt Zouma is still a few weeks away from returning following a long-term knee injury and Marco van Ginkel will remain out for the foreseeable future.

Elsewhere, West Ham look to bounce back from a wretched start to the season against Middlesbrough. Slaven Bilic's side have lost five of their opening six matches and appear to be in utter free fall amid plenty of teething problems at the London Stadium.

Sunderland, rock bottom and still winless in the league under David Moyes, host West Brom and Watford entertain Bournemouth. Stay tuned for breaking team news, confirmed line-ups and live updates.

A reminder that there is no late game in the top-flight today, with Everton having drawn 1-1 with Crystal Palace last night. Tomorrow will see Manchester United face Stoke, Leicester play Southampton, Manchester City travel to Tottenham and Arsene Wenger celebrate 20 years in charge of Arsenal away to Burnley.

Good afternoon and a very warm welcome to IBTimes UK's latest live coverage of the Premier League. Click here to follow the second half of Swansea vs Liverpool from South Wales, but otherwise join us in turning your attentions to Saturday's four 15.00 BST kick-offs.

Our featured game comes from the KCOM Stadium, where Chelsea, hampered by a defensive crisis, are seeking to avoid a third consecutive Premier League defeat under Antonio Conte against Hull City. The newly-promoted Tigers are without a win in four after their surprisingly impressive start to the season and have still yet to clarify the future of caretaker boss Mike Phelan.
