Manchester City back to winning ways, Newcastle unstoppable, and Chelsea struggles again. Nottingham Forest stuns the league

The Premier League weekend delivered excitement and surprises, with Nottingham Forest continuing to amaze. After securing safety last season, Nuno Espirito Santo’s squad earned another convincing victory, beating Wolverhampton 3-0 and climbing to second place alongside Arsenal with 40 points.

The Gunners missed their chance to gain ground, held to a 1-1 draw by Brighton. The same fate befell Enzo Maresca’s Chelsea, who saw a potential victory slip away in the final minutes against Crystal Palace. For the Blues, this marks their third consecutive match without a win, a slump that’s pulling them away from the title race.

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.
