Saturday afternoon saw hard-fought victories for the likes of Arsenal, Manchester City and Liverpool in the Premier League, but elsewhere there were also impressive wins for Brentford and Fulham.
Here is how the action unfolded in the other 3pm kick-offs in the top flight.
Brentford 4-1 Bournemouth
Kevin Schade netted a hat-trick as Brentford moved into the top half of the Premier League table with a 4-1 thrashing of Bournemouth on Saturday.
Schade opened the scoring after just seven minutes before Cherries goalkeeper Djordje Petrovic put the ball into his own net six minutes before the break.
It took six minutes after the restart for the German notch his second of the game, but Antoine Semenyo’s 75th-minute flick halved the deficit and offered hopes of a late Bournemouth turnaround.
However, it never materialised and Schade completed his hat-trick in second-half stoppage time when he nodded home Mikkel Damsgaard’s cross.
The win moves Keith Andrews’ men up to eighth in the Premier League table, while Bournemouth’s winless run now extends to nine matches.
Burnley 0-0 Everton
Another top flight team to move to nine games without a victory are Burnley after the Clarets played out a goalless stalemate at home to Fulham.
Jacob Bruun Larsen squandered the hosts’ best chance of the game when he fired over after going through one-on-one with Jordan Pickford.
Everton, meanwhile, had a strong claim for a penalty turned down late on after Tyler Dibling’s strike hit Jaidon Anthony’s arm.
The result keeps Burnley in 19th spot, six points from safety, while Everton drop to 11th.
West Ham 0-1 Fulham
Raul Jimenez headed in an 85th-minute winner as Fulham claimed a third-straight top-flight victory with a narrow win over West Ham.
The Mexican popped up with the game’s defining moment five minutes from time at the London Stadium, nodding home Harry Wilson’s cross as Marco Silva’s side edged it in the London derby.
The Cottagers climb to 10th place, while Nuno Espirito Santo’s West Ham remain 18th and five points behind Nottingham Forest in 17th, following a seventh defeat in nine games.
