Tevez remained among the favorites to become Top Goal Scorer for the 2012-2013 Premier League with odds as short as 6-1 and as long as 9-1 (a la BetVictor).
Fernando Torres was coming in at 5-1 odds while Robin van Persie was listed at 6/1 across the board.
After the interval it was Liverpool that made most of the running, only to be caught out when a handling error on Jose Reina's part allowed Yaya Toure to tap-in Tevez's right wing delivery from close range.
This was far from the Liverpool side that was so flat the previous week at West Brom and within three minutes, in the 66th of a nip-and-tuck second period, they were back in the lead when Luis Suarez swept in a sumptuous direct free-kick.
There were some unlikely early leaders in the Premier League with Chelsea on top followed by Swansea and Everton after Week 2 play.
