Here’s how it’s all going down.

Scorers: Cucurella 43′, Jackson 80′; Breath 90+1′

Title-chasing Chelsea added another three points to their tally as they survived a late Brentford comeback to hold onto a 2-1 win at Stamford Bridge.

Enzo Maresca’s side dominated the early stages as Cole Palmer, Nicolas Jackson and Enzo Fernandez all tested Mark Flekken, but they could not find the opening goal to put them into the lead.

Brentford were typically resolute defensively while offering a threat on the counter attack, but they were finally breached two minutes from the interval when Marc Cucurella popped up with a glancing header to put the Blues into the lead after a cross from Noni Madueke.

The second half saw a much improved Chelsea side, but they could not find a way to add a second goal to put the game to bed despite their domination.

And they were almost made to pay for that with 20 minutes left to play as Fabio Carvalho saw an effort rattle the Blues crossbar before Kevin Schade fired over.

Finally though, Chelsea got the second goal that their dominance deserved as Nicolas Jackson ran onto a through ball from Enzo Fernandez before smashing past Flekken.

And it was sorely needed, as with just minutes left Brentford pulled one back through Bryan Mbeumo, leaving the Blues with a nervy final few minutes to see out.

But Maresca’s side managed to do so, and move to within four points of top spot in the Premier League, though it was somewhat spoilt as Marc Cucurella saw red after the final whistle for a late scuffle with Fabio Carvalho.

Scorers: Maddison 1′, 45+4′, Son 12′, Kulusevski 14′, Sarr 25

Tottenham piled the pressure on Russell Martin as they thrashed Southampton 5-0 courtesy of five first half goals.

It took less than a minute for Spurs to take the lead, as Djed Spence played a glorious through ball to James Maddison, who calmly slotted past Alex McCarthy.

Southampton looked lifeless and Postecoglou’s side took full advantage as Heung Min Son doubled their advantage after just 12 minutes, leaving the Saints with a mountain to climb and the home fans booing their own side.

Just seconds later, it got worse as Dejan Kulusevski tapped home a third after good work from Dominic Solanke. With supporters already streaming out of St Mary’s, Pape Sarr added a fourth inside 25 minutes in what threatened to become a rout.

In one small blot to Postecoglou’s copybook, Destiny Udogie was forced off inside half an hour, needing to be replaced by Pedro Porro.

Spurs continued to threaten though, with Heung Min Son denied twice before Maddison found the top corner from a tight angle to put Spurs 5-0 up by the interval, which arrived to a chorus of boos.

The second half began in much more low-key fashion, with Southampton seeing more of the ball without really threatening any sort of comeback as Tottenham coasted towards all three points.

Southampton thought that they had managed a consolation goal only for VAR to rule out Mateus Fernandez’s header for offside,

But with only Tyler Dibling offering any sort of threat for the Saints, it was a routine second half for Tottenham as they strolled to all three points.

Scorers: Guardiol 37′; Fernandes 88′, Diallo 90′

In the showpiece event of the day, Manchester United came from behind in stunning fashion Ruben Amorim’s first Manchester derby, continuing Guardiola’s horror run of form with Man City.

It was the hosts who began the game with the majority of the ball, with Jeremy Doku particularly looking threatening down the left hand side.

And Manchester United’s start to the game took a downward turn just 12 minutes in when Mason Mount, who had impressed in midweek, was forced off with yet another injury.

Neither side could offer much in attack in the opening stages, with Phil Foden firing the best effort narrowly wide in an otherwise low-quality affair.

But with the first shot on target of the game, City were ahead as a deflected cross from Kevin de Bruyne was headed home by Josko Gvardiol 10 minutes from half time.

Andre Onana was then called into action to tip a Phil Foden effort around the post, with United failing to have a shot on target across the first half.

The Red Devils improved after the interval, and looked a little more threatening in attack, but were still unable to test Ederson until Amad Diallo forced the Brazilian into a diving save just after the hour mark, before their appeals for a penalty were waved away after a coming together between Hojlund and Ruben Dias.

10 minutes later, they had their best chance of the game so far as Bruno Fernandes raced through only to chip the ball wide of the post with only Ederson to beat.

But just when it looked as though Amorim’s side had run out of ideas, they were gifted a lifeline when Matheus Nunes sold his goalkeeper short with a backpass, before conceding a penalty as he tried to make amends, which Bruno Fernandes calmly slotted home to level the score three minutes from time.

And just two minutes later, the visitors completed an astonishing turnaround as Amad Diallo ran onto a long pass before rounding Ederson to slot his side into the lead at the Etihad.

City had nothing to offer in return, and could not prevent their rivals walking away with all three points.

Scorers: Guehi (OG) 87′; Chalobah 27′, Sarr 33′, 82′

A newfound rivalry kicks off the day’s action as Brighton play host to Crystal Palace, with both sides looking to return to winning ways.

It was Palace’s Dean Henderson who was first called into action as he was forced to turn away a rasping drive from Kaoru Mitoma.

Brighton remained in the ascendency as Palace struggled to offer any threat in the other direction, though they defended stoutly and offered the hosts little by way of efforts on goal.

And against the run of play, the Eagles took the lead from a corner as a Will Hughes delivery eventually reached Trevoh Chalobah, who gleefully stabbed the ball home from four yards out.

Minutes later, Palace had doubled their advantage as Tyrick Mitchell beat Tariq Lamptey to a long ball before hanging the ball up to the back post, where Ismaila Sarr gratefully pounced to make it 2-0.

Brighton offered little by way of response as the Eagles began to take control, with Eberechi Eze heading another effort wide as they looked to extend their advantage before the break.

However, Palace held on to their commanding position heading into the interval.

The Seagulls introduced Julio Enciso at half time as they moved into a back three to seek a route back into the encounter, and they were much improved after the break, with Dean Henderson called into action on several occasions.

But they could not find a way through, and Palace thought they had added a third goal with 25 minutes left to play, only for Munoz’s effort to be ruled out for a foul in the build up.

Brighton continued to push forward looking for a way to reduce the deficit, throwing on a trio of attackers and leaving themselves increasingly exposed at the back.

And another mistake from Lewis Dunk at the back finally secured all three points for Palace, as Ismaila Sarr stole in to run away from the England international, before slotting the ball past Verbruggen to complete the win.

There was time for Brighton to pull one back as a clearance crashed into Marc Guehi and back over the line in comical fashion, but it proved too little, too late for Hurzeler’s side as Palace held onto a famous win.
