In this weekend's Premier League fixture, leaders Arsenal extended their winning streak to a third with a narrow 2-1 win win at home to Wolverhampton Wanderers. The win took Arsenal's points to 33 and temporarily extended the lead to four points.
Despite facing a strong Arsenal side, Wolves showed resilience in the game. However, Arsenal's attacking prowess eventually broke down the Wolves defence. Goals from Bukayo Saka and Odegaard gave Arsenal a 2-0 lead, although Wolves clawed back a point in the final moments of the game through a goal from Cunha.
Manchester United, meanwhile, failed to emerge victorious in their away game against Newcastle United. Although Antony's goal was disallowed for offside, United eventually lost the game with a score of 0-1. The defeat ended United's three-game winning streak in the Premier League, keeping their points tally at 24 and dropping them to seventh.
In other fixtures, Burnley won 5-0 against Sheffield United. Everton won 1-0 away at Nottingham Forest and McNeil scored the only goal of the game. Brentford won 3-1 at home to Luton Town.
Arsenal's victory allowed them to continue to hold their top spot in the Premier League table. Newcastle United's victory saw them climb to fifth. United's defeat has deprived them of their upward momentum and they will need to recalibrate their strategy to catch up. This weekend's fixtures have once again proved how competitive and uncompetitive the Premier League is.
