Manchester City found their stride again with two impressive wins: a 2-0 victory over Leicester followed by a dominant 4-1 triumph against West Ham, boosting their chances of securing a European spot. Meanwhile, Newcastle’s strong run continues as they defeated Tottenham away, thanks to a standout performance by Isak.
Aston Villa secured a home win over Leicester, while Juric’s Southampton endured a crushing 5-0 home loss to Brentford, sparking outrage among their fans. Bournemouth came out on top against Everton, and the weekend concluded with a draw between Fulham and Ipswich Town.
