Premier League 2024-25 GW36 Review
Newcastle United 2 - 0 Chelsea
Newcastle United moved a step closer to UEFA Champions League qualification with a vital 2-0 win over 10-man Chelsea at St James’ Park. Sandro Tonali opened the scoring inside two minutes after capitalising on a Chelsea error, before Nicolas Jackson’s reckless forearm on Sven Botman earned a red card just before half-time. Despite being a man down, Chelsea pushed hard after the break, but Nick Pope’s key saves kept them at bay. Bruno Guimaraes sealed the victory late on with a deflected strike, lifting Newcastle into third and leaving Chelsea three points adrift in the race for the top five.
Manchester United 0 - 2 West Ham
Nottingham Forest 2 - 2 Leicester City
Nottingham Forest missed the chance to break into the Premier League’s top five as relegated Leicester City battled to a 2-2 draw at the City Ground. Chris Wood’s milestone 20th league goal of the season looked set to seal all three points after Morgan Gibbs-White had cancelled out Conor Coady’s early opener. But a brilliant solo goal from Facundo Buonanotte in the 81st minute earned Leicester a share of the spoils, with Forest keeper Matz Sels later denying 15-year-old Jeremy Monga a dramatic late winner. Despite the draw, Forest secured European football for next season, but remain seventh with two games left to determine which competition they will enter.
Tottenham Hotspur 0 - 2 Crystal Palace
West Ham United and Tottenham Hotspur played out a 1-1 draw at the London Stadium. Spurs took the lead in the 15th minute when Max Kilman misjudged a ball, allowing Wilson Odobert to score. West Ham equalized in the 28th minute with a close-range finish from Jarrod Bowen. Both teams struggled to create chances in the second half, with Spurs failing to capitalize on a few opportunities, while Bowen had a late header saved. Spurs remain 16th, while West Ham sit in 17th. West Ham’s lack of finishing continues to be a problem, and Spurs’ attention now shifts to their Europa League second leg against Bodo/Glimt.
Liverpool 2 - 2 Arsenal
Arsenal produced a spirited comeback to draw 2-2 with newly crowned champions Liverpool at Anfield, despite being reduced to 10 men late on. Mikel Merino’s equaliser capped a second-half turnaround after the Gunners trailed 2-0 at the break, following quickfire goals from Cody Gakpo and Luis Diaz. Gabriel Martinelli had earlier given Arsenal a lifeline before Merino drew them level, only to be sent off for a second yellow card. Liverpool had a late Andy Robertson goal ruled out by VAR, as Arsenal held firm to stay second in the Premier League table—two points ahead of Newcastle—with Champions League qualification now within touching distance.
Fulham 1 - 3 Everton
Fulham’s European hopes took a significant hit as they fell to a 3-1 home defeat against Everton, who came from behind with a second-half surge at Craven Cottage. Raul Jimenez gave the hosts an early lead, but Vitalii Mykolenko’s deflected equaliser swung momentum Everton’s way after the break. Michael Keane then powered in a header before Beto’s effort slipped under Bernd Leno to seal the points. Fulham pressed for a late penalty after Mykolenko handled in stoppage time, but VAR upheld the on-field decision. With just one win in five, Marco Silva’s side drop further off the European pace, while Everton climb to 13th ahead of an emotional Goodison Park farewell.
Ipswich Town 0 - 1 Brentford
Kevin Schade’s early header secured Brentford a hard-fought 1-0 win over already relegated Ipswich Town at Portman Road, keeping their European hopes alive. The victory marked a club-record fourth consecutive Premier League win for Thomas Frank’s side, who moved up to eighth in the table on goal difference. Schade, now with four goals in three league outings, made the decisive impact in the 18th minute from Bryan Mbeumo’s pinpoint cross. Ipswich pushed for a late equaliser, but Brentford held firm, with goalkeeper Mark Flekken making key saves to preserve the clean sheet and the Bees’ upward momentum.
Southampton 0 - 0 Manchester City
Manchester City were held to a frustrating 0-0 draw by a resilient Southampton side at St Mary’s, a result that leaves their top-five spot and Champions League qualification hopes under pressure. Despite dominating possession and chances, Pep Guardiola’s side lacked a cutting edge, with Erling Haaland struggling to make an impact on his return from injury. Southampton’s disciplined performance, bolstered by key saves from Aaron Ramsdale and a determined defensive display, ensured they avoided matching Derby County’s unwanted record for the fewest points in a Premier League season. City remain third, but their cushion over sixth-placed Nottingham Forest is down to just four points.
Wolves 0 - 2 Brighton
Brighton & Hove Albion kept their European hopes alive with a confident 2-0 win over Wolverhampton Wanderers at Molineux, thanks to goals from Danny Welbeck and substitute Brajan Gruda. Welbeck opened the scoring from the penalty spot after Matheus Cunha fouled Mats Wieffer, while Gruda sealed the victory late on with a composed finish. The result lifts Fabian Hürzeler’s side to ninth, with eighth place potentially enough for UEFA Conference League qualification. For Wolves, it marked a second consecutive defeat and continued their poor run against Brighton, leaving them 14th in the table.
Bournemouth 0 - 1 Aston Villa
Ollie Watkins became Aston Villa’s all-time leading Premier League goalscorer as his decisive strike sealed a vital 1-0 victory over AFC Bournemouth to keep their UEFA Champions League hopes alive. Watkins’ record-breaking 75th league goal for Villa came deep into first-half stoppage time, prodding home Morgan Rogers’ pinpoint cross. Despite going down to 10 men after Jacob Ramsey’s red card, Unai Emery’s side held firm—thanks to heroics from Emiliano Martinez and Matty Cash—to climb to sixth in the table. Bournemouth, meanwhile, suffered a major blow to their European ambitions, remaining 10th with just two games to play.
