Crystal Palace 1-2 Liverpool

Harvey Elliot with a great strike away at Selhurst Park to give Liverpool all 3 points. Two late goals away from home with Salah and Elliot converting when it mattered. Liverpool benefited after Ayew saw red and Palace went down to 10 men. Liverpool showed fight and determination right until the very end to seal all 3 points and get the job done.

Brighton 1-1 Burnley

Adingra equalised at home to deny Burnley 2nd away win of the season. Odobert put Burnley ahead before half-time with a stunning strike! Burnley couldn't hold on to all 3 points, as Adingra put away one of few chances he got to give the Seagulls a point at home.

Wolves 1-1 Nottingham Forest

Harry Toffolo opened the deadlock with a goal in the 14'. Matheus Cuhna then equalised with a really well worked goal from Wolves. It was an open game where either team could've taken all 3 points however, they ended up with a point each. Pressure mounts up on Cooper as Forest have only picked up 1 point in there last 5 Premier leauge games.

Sheffield United 1-0 Brentford

Mcatee gives Sheffield United 2nd home win of the season with a superb strike which nestled into the top left corner. There was still a lot of work to be done for Sheffield United to hold off Brentford and take all 3 points. People were saying that Onyeka should have been sent off for a studs up challenge on Vinicius Souza. I certainly thought Onyeka should've seen red, however VAR said otherwise.
