Premier League Round Up

Wednesday, 8 July 2020 at 11:14

Arsenal and Leicester played out a 1-1 draw at the Emirates.

Chelsea have moved up to third place in the Premier League table after they won their fourth league game in five matches with a 3-2 defeat of Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park. 

The in-form Christian Pulisic, Olivier Giroud and Tammy Abraham were all on target. 

Pensioners boss Frank Lampard says it's still a work in progress for him and his team. 

Arsenal and Leicester City drew 1-1 at the Emirates Stadium. 

Pierre Emerick Aubameyang's opener was cancelled out by Jamie Vardy's 22nd league goal of the season after Arsenal's Eddie Nketiah was sent off. 

The result leaves Leicester four points clear of Manchester United in the race for Champions League football. 

Leicester manager Brendan Rodgers is taking the positives. 

But Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta is frustrated:

Danny Welbeck's overhead kick gave Watford a 2-1 win over Norwich City and a vital 3 points in the battle to avoid relegation. 

But the loss means the Canaries could be relegated as soon as Saturday.

Manager Daniel Farke is proud of the attitude his players are showing:

Tonight, champions Liverpool are away to Brighton, with that match kicking off at the Amex Stadium at 8.15.  

Reds boss Jurgen Klopp has praised Brighton's Graham Potter for making them a more solid Premier League side.

Potter's been in charge since replacing Chris Hughton in May last year - and they're currently nine points clear of the bottom three - with five games remaining:

There are three matches beginning at 6pm. 

Manchester City play Newcastle United, 

Sheffield United entertain Wolves, 

And it's West Ham United up against Burnley.
