The past weekend in the English Premier League was packed with drama, surprises, and crucial results.
Liverpool strengthened their title push, Arsenal stumbled, and the relegation battle took another twist.
Here is a breakdown of the action from February 21st to 23rd 2025.
Liverpool Take Control
Liverpool made a huge statement by beating Manchester City away from home.
The Reds controlled the game, shutting down City’s attacking threats while taking their chances clinically.
This victory extended their lead at the top of the table to 11 points, putting them in a commanding position to win the title.
Arsenal’s Hopes Dented
Arsenal suffered a major setback in their title race, losing to West Ham at home.
A first-half goal from Jarrod Bowen was enough to sink the Gunners, who failed to find a way past a disciplined West Ham defense.
Despite dominating possession and creating multiple chances, Arsenal’s attack lacked the finishing touch.
To make matters worse, Myles Lewis-Skelly received a red card late in the game, further adding to their frustrations.
Nottingham Forest Also Fall
It was a tough weekend for Nottingham Forest, who also suffered a defeat.
Their struggles continued, and they now face a battle to maintain their position in the league.
A lack of goals and defensive errors cost them dearly.
Newcastle and Spurs Shine
Newcastle United were one of the few top-seven teams to secure a win.
Their attacking display was impressive, helping them maintain their push for European football next season.
Meanwhile, Tottenham Hotspur continued their revival with a third consecutive Premier League victory.
Brennan Johnson was the hero, scoring twice as Spurs powered past Ipswich Town.
This win boosted Spurs’ position in the standings, showing signs of a strong finish to the season.
Wolves Edge Closer to Safety
At the bottom of the table, Wolverhampton Wanderers earned a crucial win over Bournemouth.
Matheus Cunha was the difference-maker once again, scoring his 13th league goal of the season.
His form has been key in Wolves’ fight for survival. Bournemouth’s struggles continued, and their hopes of breaking into the top four took a huge hit.
The result also stretched Wolves’ unbeaten run against Bournemouth in away games to five matches.
Brentford Impress Again
Brentford continued their fine form with a dominant away win against Leicester City.
Bryan Mbeumo and Yoane Wissa were once again on the scoresheet, proving to be one of the most dangerous attacking duos in the league.
Mikkel Damsgaard provided two assists, taking his tally to 10 this season, the highest by any Brentford player in a single Premier League campaign.
Crystal Palace Shock Fulham
Fulham’s hopes of qualifying for Europe suffered a setback after Crystal Palace secured an impressive away victory.
Palace’s defense was rock solid, keeping their fourth consecutive away clean sheet.
An own goal from Joachim Andersen and a late strike from Daniel Muñoz sealed the win for Palace, who have been outstanding on the road this season.
Brighton Punish Southampton
Brighton & Hove Albion bounced back in style, thrashing Southampton 4-0.
Joao Pedro and Georginio Rutter were on fire, leading Brighton’s attack with precision and flair.
Southampton’s struggles continued, as they now sit at the bottom of the table with the worst home record in Premier League history.
Manchester United’s Struggles Continue
Manchester United managed to salvage a draw against Everton, but their form remains concerning.
They have now picked up just 15 points from their last 45 available, showing their inconsistency.
Bruno Fernandes and Manuel Ugarte scored to rescue a point, but United still looked far from their best.
Everton, on the other hand, extended their unbeaten run to six matches and were unlucky not to grab a late winner after a penalty decision was overturned.
Aston Villa Keep European Hopes Alive
Aston Villa came from behind to beat Chelsea, boosting their push for European football.
Marcus Rashford and Marco Asensio were the heroes, turning the game around after Enzo Fernandez had given Chelsea an early lead.
Villa’s attack looked sharp, and they are now firmly in the race for a top-six finish.
