Did your Premier League team live up to expectations this weekend?
We've asked Sky Sports Now guests Tony Cottee and Tony Gale to give their expert assessment of the weekend's action and grade each team based solely on their latest performance.
So how did your team fare as top-flight action returned after the international break? Did they get an A+ or an F, or somewhere in between? Read on to see how your team has been ranked...
Leicester - A
Gale: People may have been expecting Leicester to win this game but they still had a job to do. Leicester did what they had to do and won the game on the back of discipline and good defending. If you want to win the Premier League you have to win games when you're not playing well. Leicester appear to have mastered that art.
Norwich - A-
Cottee: Norwich would have got an A if you didn't concede two goals - that's been their problem all season - but they deserve great credit for their display in a pressurised game. When Newcastle fought back to 2-2 Norwich could have easily taken the point, but to go on and win the game was fantastic.
Arsenal - B
Cottee: An improved performance from Arsenal but it's difficult to give them anything higher than a B because it was an uninspiring performance from Watford.
Chelsea - B
Gale: Guus Hiddink gave a few youngsters an opportunity which was good to see. But, in fairness, this was a gimme for Chelsea and they took full advantage of a poor Villa side.
Crystal Palace - B
Gale: Palace could have been more adventurous following West Ham's red card. But Dwight Gayle did well to capitalise on a defensive error to earn a decent point for Alan Pardew's side.
Liverpool - B
Cottee: This was a much-improved performance from Liverpool, they've been inconsistent this season and, going into the game, we didn't know which team would turn up. But they really took the game to Spurs, Philippe Coutinho was fantastic. There is more to come from Liverpool, we probably won't see that until next season, though.
Man City - B
Gale: Not quite an A for City but a decent performance nonetheless. I was impressed with the fact they were without Joe Hart, Vincent Kompany and Yaya Toure but managed to produce a better all-round team performance.
Man Utd - B
Cottee: United deserve a B simply because of the result. They're uninspiring, they're not playing particularly well but they got the three points so it's a fantastic result for them.
Southampton - B
Gale: Ronald Koeman's side had a lot of possession but couldn't get that all-important goal. A few decisions went against them and that just sums up Leicester at the moment, they're getting the run of the ball.
Sunderland - B
Cottee: Sunderland took the game to West Brom and created most of the chances. With better finishing they would have won the three points they so desperately need.
Swansea - B
Gale: Swansea weren't really in the game at Stoke but as soon as they got the first goal the equaliser was always going to come. They deserve a B simply for what was an unlikely turnaround.
West Ham - B
Gale: Palace tried to stifle West Ham, they scored early but the Hammers fought back thanks to Dimitri Payet's wonderful free-kick. At that stage West Ham were in control, but a bad decision to send off Cheikhou Kouyate allowed Palace to get back into the game. The game hinged on the big decision by Mark Clattenburg.
Tottenham - B-
Cottee: Although Spurs put in a decent performance at Anfield the most important thing was the result. Harry Kane's goal was brilliant but, without a doubt, this was two points dropped rather than a point gained.
Everton - C
Cottee: I don't know where to start with my old club, they have been so average this season. Fantastic performances are followed by awful ones. They had a lot of possession yesterday but couldn't find a way through. You could argue they didn't deserve to win the game.
Newcastle - C
Cottee: I can't give Newcastle any more than this. The effort is there, they scored two goals away from home, but they couldn't get anything to show for it. Until they actually start getting results they'll struggle to get anything better than a C.
Stoke - C
Gale: Stoke are a fantastic footballing side, they've been one of my favourites to watch this season, but they tend to take their foot off the pedal when they're playing the sides in and around them. This was the case on Saturday, with the Potters throwing away a two-goal lead.
West Brom - C
Gale: Not a practically inspiring performance from West Brom but Tony Pulis set them up to get a point and they did. They are up to 40 points now and they've done their job, they are in the Premier League next season.
Bournemouth - D
Gale: I didn't foresee Bournemouth getting anything from this game if City turned up but Eddie Howe's side could, and probably should, have made it more difficult. They tried to play City at their own game and that was where they came a cropper.
Watford - E
Cottee: Quique Sanchez Flores' side have got 'cup semi-final syndrome' at the moment. Their minds are occupied on the FA Cup and quite rightly so, they've done enough in the league and the cup is huge for them. Despite that, they were still poor at the Emirates.
Aston Villa - F
Gale: Villa are in a miserable run of form at the moment. They didn't really look like getting a result against a Chelsea side that had little to play for between now and the end of the season.
