Liverpool in Control as Injury-hit Arsenal Slip

Liverpool are confidently in charge and do seem like a team that will slip. Although Salah was firing blanks, his side can now do without him. City have regained their energy.

Brentford 0-2 Liverpool

Brentford looked like they had held the log leaders to a goalless draw but the introduction of substitute Darwin Nunez turned the tide. Nunez fired a quick double in extra time.

Arsenal 2-2 Aston Villa

Arsenal went ahead through Gabriel Martinelli before Kai Harvetz nodded home a second goal to seal Trossard's brace of assists. However, problems in the right back position came back to haunt Arteta's side as Villa capitalised on makeshift full-back Thomas Partey to make a fight back.

Nottingham Forest 3-2 Southampton

Forest continued with their resurgence earning another three points to cement their position in the top four.

Ipswich 0-6 Manchester City

Phil Foden is slowly getting back to last season's performance. He netted a brace as Man City dismissed hapless Ipswich who sit in the relegation zone.

Newcastle 1-4 Bournemouth

Andoni Iraola's side Bournemouth continued with their giant-killing acts silencing Newcastle who have had a good run. Newcastle's Isak who had consistently scored in 8 consecutive games had a stinker of a game.

Leicester 0-2 Fulham

Van Nistelrooy's side continue to wobble losing at home to Fulham.

West Ham 0-2 Crystal Palace
