Liverpool sits atop the Premier League table following a 1-0 victory at Crystal Palace, just ahead of Manchester City and Arsenal, both of whom secured comeback wins on Saturday. Diogo Jota's early goal was enough for Liverpool to maintain their impressive form under new manager Arne Slot, who has achieved six wins in his first seven Premier League games.
Liverpool has accumulated 18 points, while both Manchester City and Arsenal follow closely with 17 points on the Premier League points table. However, the victory came with setbacks, as injuries were reported for goalkeeper Alisson and midfielder Alexis Mac Allister.
Manchester City faced a challenging match at home against Fulham, who initially took the lead through Andreas Pereira. However, Mateo Kovacic's two goals helped City turn the game around, securing a 3-2 victory. Arsenal also found themselves in a tough spot against winless Southampton but managed to rally back, with Kai Havertz scoring to level the match before Gabriel Martinelli and Bukayo Saka sealed a 3-1 win.
