Crystal palace 0-1 Chelsea

Hakim Ziyech scored a late goal to give Chelsea a 1-0 victory against Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park.

The game seemed to be heading for a goalless draw, but Chelsea made it nine victories in a row against Palace as substitute Marcos Alonso's cross found Ziyech unmarked at the back post, extending Chelsea's lead in third place.

Thomas Tuchel's team has moved seven points ahead of fourth-placed Manchester United, who face Leeds on Sunday with the potential to reduce the gap.

Vicente Guaita made a great stop from Antonio Rudiger after the German took aim from 40 yards out and unleashed a diverting rocket of a shot towards the top corner, which the Spaniard palmed away.

Chelsea's best chance of the half may have gone to the wrong guy. With 20 minutes gone, Malang Sarr slipped N'Golo Kante in on goal, but he could only shoot straight at the goalie.

After Christian Pulisic was dispossessed and maybe fouled in midfield, the hosts had their finest opportunity in first-half stoppage time. With a clever through pass, Olise broke and put Wilfried Zaha in, but the Ivorian could only plant his finish wide from the angle.

Chelsea didn't improve after the half, and the game seemed to be trudging along to a 0-0 draw without incident.

Arsenal 2-1 Brentford

Arsenal kept their Champions League qualifying hopes alive with a 2-1 win against Brentford at the Emirates Stadium thanks to second-half goals from Emile Smith Rowe and Bukayo Saka.

Mikel Arteta's team remain sixth in the rankings, although they draw level on points with West Ham, who they trail by three games. They are also currently one point behind fourth-placed Manchester United, who play Leeds at Elland Road on Super Sunday, with the Gunners holding a two-point advantage over Ralf Rangnick's side.

Liverpool 3-1 Norwich

Mohamed Salah scored his 150th goal for Liverpool, while Sadio Mane and Luis Diaz also scored, as the Reds rallied to defeat Norwich and maintain pressure on league leaders Manchester City.

Milot Rashica's deflected effort startled Anfield early in the second half before Mane equalised with an acrobatic volley.

Salah scored seconds later with a calm finish after a magnificent 70-yard ball from Alisson, with new signing Diaz completing the scoring by tucking away Jordan Henderson's slide-rule pass.

Manchester City 2-3 Tottenham

After guiding Tottenham to a dramatic 3-2 victory at Etihad Stadium, Harry Kane showed Manchester City exactly what he can give by opening the championship race wide open.

The England striker capped an incredible individual game with a second-half double after being extensively linked with a big-money transfer to the champions in the summer.

Despite the setback, City was mostly dominating and levelled shortly after the half-hour mark when Hugo Lloris failed to hold on to Raheem Sterling's cross, enabling Ilkay Gundogan to score.
