Arsenal decided to make things swift and clear, by keeping the Wolves at bay during each set of 45 minutes and scoring one on each half.

With this, Arsenal made a clear statement, retaining the top of the scoreboard for the weekend and preparing for their next upcoming match as the time is running out, and they have a clear shot at crowning themselves.

Aston Villa was expected to get the lead and land points during the match with Bournemouth, but they made a statement against the 13th-placed team, scoring three over the visitors.

Dominic Solanke’s goal in the 31st minute was enough to get their team hyped before they got into the second half, but Aston Villa decided to break their pace by scoring one in the first half’s added time.

They came back from the lockers looking to make their locality respected, and a pair of goals by Moussa Diaby and Leon Bailey were enough to do so and rack them the points.

Liverpool is not going to let Arsenal slip away at the top of the Premier League, and this meant that Fulham had quite a rough day out on the field, as even though they managed to score a goal right before the teams went to the lockers for half time, their opponents were ready to give them hell in the second.

Liverpool got the lead as Trent Alexander-Arnold scored the first goal in the 32nd, but after the teams got back in the second half, Ryan Gravenberch and Diogo Jota finished their opponents up to score three points as they tried to get past Arsenal and Manchester City.
