At the critical stage of the sprint, the three male families are competing for the sweetness and sorrow of the two families. Both Liverpool and Arsenal have lost at home. Liverpool suffered a shock 1-0 defeat to Crystal Palace, and Arsenal was also slightly surprised to be knocked out 0-2 by Unai Emery's Villa. Manchester City returned to the top of the Premier League with a big win.
Manchester City 5-1 Luton
Although Manchester City has a Champions League clash with Real Madrid at home, it is still not polite in front of the Premier League underdog Luton Town in this round, winning 5-1 at home. Haaland converted a penalty and set up an own goal, but also missed two great chances. According to statistics, Haaland has missed 30 scoring chances this season and ranks first in the Premier League.
Bournemouth 2-2 Manchester United
Manchester United continued their style of being the team with the most shots on goal in Europe's top five leagues, and it was lucky to pick up one point. With a brace from the big B, Manchester United drew 2-2 away to Bournemouth, struggling to get a point and avoid the embarrassment of being beaten by the Cherries for the first time in team history.
Liverpool 0-1 Crystal Palace
Liverpool obviously did not get out of the shadow of the Europa League home defeat of 0-3 to Atalanta, and this campaign conceded an early goal against Crystal Palace at home to enter the reverse Liverpool mode, but the whole team's offensive efficiency was inefficient, and they could only swallow the bitter fruit at home. Under Jurgen Klopp, Palace were the first team to beat Liverpool three times away in the Premier League.
Arsenal 0-2 Aston Villa
Arsenal missed a number of great chances to score, and in the 84th and 87th minutes, Pele and Villa's leading scorer Watkins scored twice in a row, and Arsenal suffered a defeat at home to their first defeat in the Premier League in 2024. Villa, on the other hand, completed the season double against Arsenal and kept a clean sheet.
Chelsea 6-0 Everton
Palmer's performance in this game was perfect, with all five shots on target and four goals, which can be described as a no-brainer. It took just 16 minutes in the first half to score a perfect hat-trick, and in the second half, after a battle with team-mates, he scored a penalty to complete the quadruple. Palmer is the first Chelsea player to perform a quadruple since Frank Lampard in 2020. Palmer now has 20 goals, tying Erling Haaland for joint top scorer.
