Friday 25th October

Leicester v Nottingham Forest

1 - 3

Nottingham Forest claimed a thrilling 3-1 victory over Leicester City in the East Midlands derby, shooting them up to fifth in the Premier League. The match began with Forest capitalizing on Leicester’s defensive lapses, Ryan Yates curling in a stunning opener. Leicester quickly hit back through Jamie Vardy, who showcased his experience with a clever finish. But it was Wood who truly stole the spotlight, firing in a brilliant shot just after the break and later sealing the win with a powerful header from a corner. Despite some late chances, including a missed effort from Yates, Forest’s dominance was clear as they celebrated a well-deserved victory. Meanwhile, Leicester’s defensive struggles left them in 14th, reminding fans just how punishing the Premier League can be.

Saturday 26th October

Everton v Fulham

1 - 1

 

Beto’s stoppage-time equaliser salvaged a point for Everton in a 1-1 draw against Fulham at Goodison Park, extending their unbeaten run to five matches. Fulham took the lead in the 61st minute with Alex Iwobi’s well-placed shot, benefiting from clever build-up play. Everton, frustrated by an earlier disallowed goal, finally broke through in the dying moments when Beto headed in from an Ashley Young cross. Despite dominating much of the game, Fulham, now in 10th, will lament missed chances, while Everton’s resilience lifts them to 15th in the table, celebrating a hard-fought point.

Manchester City v Southampton

1 - 0

 

Manchester City reclaimed the top spot in the Premier League with a 1-0 victory over Southampton, thanks to Erling Haaland’s early goal. Haaland scored just five minutes in, converting a cross from Matheus Nunes, but City struggled to extend their lead despite dominating the match. Southampton’s Cameron Archer came close to equalising, hitting the crossbar just before halftime. Haaland missed several opportunities to secure a more comfortable win, including a glaring miss from close range. Southampton, who impressed with their possession-based play, remain winless and sit at the bottom of the table with just one point from nine games.

Brighton v Wolves

2 - 2

Wolverhampton Wanderers staged a dramatic 2-2 draw against Brighton at the Amex Stadium. Wolves found themselves 2-0 down with just five minutes remaining after Danny Welbeck’s goal just before halftime and Evan Ferguson’s strike in the 85th minute seemed to seal Brighton’s victory. However, Rayan Ait-Nouri sparked hope with a goal in the 88th minute, followed by Matheus Cunha’s late equaliser that left the away fans ecstatic. Brighton remains in fifth place, while Wolves, now with two points, move up to 19th in the Premier League. Despite being winless after nine games, Wolves showed resilience, fighting back against Brighton’s dominance to secure a valuable point.

Brentford v Ipswich

4 - 3

Bryan Mbeumo’s late goal clinched a thrilling 4-3 victory for Brentford against 10-man Ipswich Town at the Gtech Community Stadium. Ipswich appeared set for their first win of the season, racing to a 2-0 lead with goals from Sam Szmodics and George Hirst. However, Brentford turned the match around just before halftime, with Yoane Wissa scoring and forcing an own goal from Harry Clarke. Mbeumo converted a penalty early in the second half after Clarke’s dismissal. Although Liam Delap pulled one back for Ipswich late on, Mbeumo sealed the win with a stoppage-time cross that found the net. Brentford rises to ninth, while Ipswich remains 16th, still searching for their first victory.

Aston Villa v Bournemouth

1 - 1

 

Evanilson’s dramatic 96th-minute equaliser secured Bournemouth a thrilling 1-1 draw against Aston Villa at Villa Park. Despite Villa dominating the match, Bournemouth’s goalkeeper Mark Travers made a series of crucial saves, keeping the game goalless until Ross Barkley, a substitute, scored for Villa in the second half. However, in a stunning finish, Evanilson headed in a free-kick from Marcus Tavernier to snatch a point for the Cherries. Villa remain in third place, five points off the top, while Bournemouth sits 10th, having collected 12 points from nine matches. Both teams will need to build on this performance as the season progresses.

Sunday 27th October

Liverpool v Arsenal

2 - 2

 

Mohamed Salah rescued Liverpool with a dramatic 2-2 draw against Arsenal in a thrilling clash at the Emirates Stadium. Bukayo Saka opened the scoring for Arsenal with his 50th Premier League goal, only for Virgil van Dijk to equalise shortly after. Mikel Merino then restored Arsenal’s lead before halftime with a header from a free-kick. However, injuries to key Arsenal defenders shifted the momentum, allowing Liverpool to pressure the home side. Salah capped a swift counter-attack to level the score in the 81st minute. The result keeps Liverpool second in the table, just behind Manchester City, while Arsenal sits in third.

West Ham v Manchester United

2 - 1

 

Jarrod Bowen scored a dramatic stoppage-time penalty to secure a 2-1 victory for West Ham United over Manchester United, increasing pressure on manager Erik ten Hag. Crysencio Summerville opened the scoring for West Ham in the 74th minute, capitalizing on United’s missed chances, but Casemiro equalized shortly after with a header. The decisive moment came in the second minute of stoppage time when Bowen converted a penalty awarded after a VAR review for a foul on Danny Ings. This win lifted West Ham to 13th place in the league, matching United’s points tally but moving ahead on goal difference.

Crystal Palace v Tottenham

1 - 0

Jean-Philippe Mateta’s first-half goal secured a vital 1-0 win for Crystal Palace against Tottenham Hotspur, marking their first Premier League victory of the season. Tottenham, who hit the post through Brennan Johnson, struggled to find their rhythm, especially in the absence of star player Son Heung-min. Despite creating a few chances, including a near miss from Dejan Kulusevski, Spurs managed only three shots on target throughout the match. Eze was instrumental for Palace, with a goal disallowed for offside and several attempts thwarted by Tottenham’s goalkeeper, Guglielmo Vicario. The victory lifts Palace to 17th in the table, while Spurs sit in eighth after two defeats in their last three matches

Chelsea v Newcastle

2 - 1

Chelsea defeated Newcastle United 2-1 at Stamford Bridge, moving them to fifth in the Premier League. After an early goal was disallowed, Palmer assisted Nicolas Jackson’s opener in the 18th minute. Newcastle equalised with Alexander Isak’s goal, but Palmer quickly restored Chelsea’s lead with a low shot just after halftime. Despite a late penalty being overturned by VAR, Newcastle struggled to respond, remaining winless in their last five league matches. Chelsea’s captain, Reece James, bounced back from an early mistake to help secure the victory, keeping the Blues firmly in the top half of the table.
