Manchester City are five points clear at the top of the table after Manchester United’s shock loss at Huddersfield handed Pep Guardiola a golden chance to extend the gap with a 3-0 win over Burnley.

The lunchtime kick-off saw Chelsea come back from 2-1 down against Watford to win 4-2 and move above the Hornets into the top four, putting pressure on Tottenham ahead of their clash with Liverpool on Sunday.

Leicester’s win over Swansea City means that, having lost 3-0 to Brighton on Friday night, the pressure is on Slaven Bilic as his West Ham side drop into the bottom three.

Bournemouth’s win over Stoke at the Bet365 Stadium meant that regardless of Crystal Palace’s result at Newcastle, where it finished 1-0 to the Magpies, the Eagles would remain bottom of the table.
