Brentford 4-3 Ipswich Town LINEUPS
In an exhilarating seven-goal thriller, Brentford achieved their first-ever Premier League comeback from 2+ goals down. Having lost 29 of 31 such games previously, the Bees’ comeback stunned Ipswich, who also saw Harry Clarke join an infamous list.
- Clarke became the second player in Premier League history to score an own goal, concede a penalty, and get sent off in the same game, matching Jan Bednarek’s infamous feat from 2021.
- This season has seen five comebacks from 2+ goals down, showing an increasing trend for dramatic turnarounds.

Video highlights
Mainz 1-1 Borussia Mönchengladbach LINEUPS
Aston Villa’s strong home form faltered with a last-gasp goal from Bournemouth’s Evanilson at 95:43, the Cherries’ second-latest Premier League goal ever. Villa, unbeaten in seven games, have now failed to convert a lead in their last three home matches, despite previously winning 17 such encounters in a row.
- Unai Emery’s side last enjoyed a longer unbeaten streak in the league (10 games) between February and April 2023.
- Bournemouth’s latest away goal continues their trend of snatching points late in matches.

Video highlights
Manchester City 1-0 Southampton LINEUPS
Erling Haaland struck his 74th Premier League goal, securing a narrow victory for Manchester City over a winless Southampton. While City extended their unbeaten streak to 32 league games (28 in 2024 alone), Southampton’s 22-game winless run becomes the third-longest in Premier League history.
- Only Chelsea (2005) have enjoyed a longer unbeaten run from the start of a calendar year than City’s current streak.
- Haaland continues to dominate, with today’s goal marking just his third in a 1-0 win.
Brighton 2-2 Wolves: Points Shared in Another Comeback Thriller
Video highlights
Brighton 2-2 Wolvesh LINEUPS
Wolves battled back from two goals down to claim a point against Brighton, ending a 30-game streak of losing matches from similar positions. Despite dropping points, Brighton’s 16 points after nine games equals their best-ever top-flight start, matching last season’s tally.
- Wolves’ resilience mirrors their comeback spirit last seen against Chelsea in May 2022.
- Brighton’s inability to hold onto a 2-goal lead at home will frustrate Roberto De Zerbi, marking their first such stumble since 2022.
Everton 1-1 Fulham: Points Slipped Away Again for Fulham

Everton 1-1 Fulham LINEUPS
Fulham’s struggles to protect leads continued as they let a winning position slip once again, sharing the spoils with Everton. Marco Silva’s side has now dropped 10 points from winning positions, only second to Brentford this season.

Crystal Palace 1-0 Tottenham: Selhurst Park Fortress Prevails
Video highlights
Crystal Palace 1-0 Tottenham LINEUPS
Crystal Palace secured only their second win in 19 Premier League clashes against Tottenham (D2, L15), but both victories came with a clean sheet at Selhurst Park. Palace’s home form in London derbies continues to improve, marking this as their fourth home derby win in the league since 2022.
Meanwhile, Tottenham’s away struggles in London derbies continue, as they are now winless in their last four (D1, L3) and have scored only once across those fixtures. This defeat raises further questions about Spurs’ away form against local rivals in 2024.
West Ham 2-1 Manchester United: Hammers Keep Momentum at Home
Video highlights
West Ham 2-1 Manchester United LINEUPS
West Ham clinched consecutive Premier League home wins for the first time in 2024, following their recent 4-1 triumph over Ipswich and this 2-1 win over Manchester United. The Hammers’ opener also ended United’s impressive 343-minute clean-sheet streak on the road in the Premier League.
Manchester United’s sluggish start to the season continues. With just 11 points from nine matches, this is their second-worst points tally at this stage in Premier League history, only slightly better than the 10 points they managed in 2019-20.
Chelsea 2-1 Newcastle: The Blues Continue Their Resurgence
Video highlights
Chelsea 2-1 Newcastle LINEUPS
Chelsea are flying under their recent revival, securing 10 wins from their last 14 Premier League matches since May (D2, L2). Only Manchester City (35) have accumulated more points than Chelsea’s 32 in this period.
Newcastle, on the other hand, are winless in their last five Premier League games (D2, L3), matching a concerning slump not seen since Eddie Howe’s six-game winless streak in September 2022.
Notably, Cole Palmer has now scored seven match-winning goals at Stamford Bridge, more than any other player in home games since the start of last season, solidifying his impact for the Blues.
Arsenal 2-2 Liverpool: Gunners Drop Points at Home Again
Video highlights
Arsenal 2-2 Liverpool LINEUPS
Arsenal’s back-to-back winless league games are a first since December 2023, highlighting some cracks in their early-season form. Despite scoring first in four home matches this season, they’ve already drawn two of those (W2, D2), surpassing their single such draw across all of last season.
Liverpool extended their unbeaten streak away from home across all competitions this season, with six wins and one draw. Ame Slot is now the first Liverpool manager since William Connell in 1923 to go unbeaten in his first seven away matches.
While Arsenal failed to hold onto their lead twice, they are unbeaten in their last five Premier League encounters with Liverpool (W2, D3), their longest unbeaten streak against the Reds since a run of eight matches from 2007 to 2011.
