Liverpool remain top of the Premier League on Saturday night thanks to a 1-0 win away to Crystal Palace, while Manchester City and Arsenal both won their respective matches to keep up the chase.

Diogo Jota scored the only goal of the game after nine minutes, although Liverpool goalkeeper Alisson made several good saves before he limped off with a hamstring injury after an hour, leaving third choice Vitezslav Jaros to make his debut.

Jaros got his chance due to illness affecting Alisson's usual substitute, Caoimhin Kelleher, and also made some important saves in his impressive debut.

Manchester City had to come back from a goal down at home to a solid Fulham side, who took the lead with Andreas Pereira's 26th minute goal from Raul Jimenez's assist.

City were without injured duo Rodri and Kevin de Bruyne, but Mateo Kovacic scored with a powerful shot following a corner just six minutes later and then put his side ahead at the start of the second half with a low drive from outside of the penalty area.

Substitute, Jeremy Doku also netted from outside of the box to make it 3-2 in the 82nd minute, but Fulham refused to accept defeat, with Rodrigo Muniz giving them late hope with an 88th minute strike.

Arsenal also conceded first in their 3-1 win at home to Southampton, who defended well in the first half and took the lead thanks to Cameron Archer's right foot shot.

Southampton were only ahead for two minutes before Kai Havertz leveled after Bukayo Saka's assist. The England international then set up Gabriel Martinelli to give Arsenal the lead 10 minutes later, before scoring himself with two minutes left to play.

West Ham's big-name players responded to give coach Julen Lopetegui a much-needed win with a 4-1 triumph at home to Ipswich.

Michail Antonio accepted Jarrod Bowen's pass to put West Ham ahead in the first minute and although Liam Delap netted a stunning equalizer five minutes later, Mohammed Kudus put West Ham back in front at the end of the first half.

Bowen netted a third for West Ham and Lucas Paqueta scored the fourth to give Lopetegui's men their first home win of the season.

Facundo Buonanotte's 16th minute goal gave Leicester City three vital points at home to Bournemouth, who were guilty of missing chances to take the lead.

Brentford won a thrilling game 5-3 at home to bottom of the table Wolverhampton, who remain winless.

The home side continued their tradition of scoring early goals, with Nathan Collins putting them ahead in the second minute of a topsy-turvy first half, that saw Matheus Cunha equalize after four minutes.

Bryan Mbeumo's 20th minute penalty put Brentford back ahead, only for Jorgen Strand Larsen to level six minutes later, before Christian Norgaard re-established Brentford's lead in the 28th minute.

Ethan Pinnock added a fourth on the stroke of halftime and Fabio Carvalho scored the fifth in the last minute, and although Rayan Ait-Nouri ended the scoring in the 93rd minute, the game was already decided.

The last game of the day was a lot tenser as Everton and Newcastle United drew 0-0 in a tight match with few clear chances.
