On the goal rush, Manchester City came back from behind to beat Fulham 3-2 in a thrilling game at the Etihad.
Erling Haaland blanked in two successive league starts for only the fourth time in his Man City career, but the team made up for it as Mateo Kovacic scored two before Jeremy Doku grabbed the third for Pep Guardiola’s side.
The Reds and the Citizens occupy first and second place in the standings heading into the international break; but the Gunners would not budge as they registered a 3-1 win over Southampton to continue to pile the pressure at the top.
Bukayo Saka got a goal and two assists for Arsenal while Cameron Archer got the consolation for the Saints with his first goal for the club.
Brentford beat Wolves 5-3 in the day’s highest scoring fixture while West Ham defeated Ipswich 4-1 and Leicester City got a 1-0 win over Bournemouth.
In the late game, Jordan Pickford stopped an Anthony Gordon penalty as Everton held Newcastle to a goalless draw at Goodison Park.
