Arsenal, new stop. Liverpool always wins and extends to +13. Dorgu nightmare but United wins

In Manchester, everything happens: after four minutes Dorgu gifts the opponents a goal with a horror back pass and in the 43rd minute he gets sent off for a nasty tackle on Hutchinson's ankle. Despite this, United still beat Ipswich Town 3-2 and draw level with Tottenham in thirteenth place, defeated at home by Manchester City 1-0 thanks to Haaland's return to scoring, who makes it 20 in the Premier League . Arsenal cannot go beyond a 0-0 draw at Forest and Liverpool takes advantage of this by knocking out Newcastle 2-0 at Anfield thanks to goals from Szoboszlai and Mac Allister. The Reds are 13 points ahead of the Gunners with a game in hand. Everton confirms their excellent form: 1-1 at Brentford and their fourth consecutive useful result.

A deserved victory for Pep Guardiola who bounces back from the home defeat against Liverpool. Erling Haaland returns to the starting lineup after the injury that forced him to miss the match against the Reds. The Norwegian is the match-winner thanks to the winning tap-in after 12' on an assist from an unleashed Jeremy Doku, unstoppable on the left for the opposing defenders. In the first half Vicario is the protagonist with at least two prodigious saves, in the second it is Ederson who has to take on the role of the life-saving hero, especially in the 85' when he says no to a missile from Son. In injury time, Haaland is denied a brace for a handball at the start of the move. City responds to Chelsea and closes the gap on Forest: they are now fourth with 47 points. The good moment of Postecoglu's team comes to an end after two consecutive victories.

A deadlocked game at the City Ground, with Arsenal once again showing the difficulties they face in breaking through without a centre forward. The experiment, tried out of necessity by Arteta, of Mikel Merino as a false 9 doesn't work, Milinkovic and Murillo don't let anything pass. Calafiori did badly, booked after 3', and Jorginho was a masterful playmaker. The Gunners tried with the usual dead balls from a corner at the far post, but Sels and the Forest defence responded well. There were few big shots on target: Raya was alert on Wood in the 70th minute, overall the defences dominated. Arsenal moved even further away from the top, Forest patched up the two consecutive defeats they had come into the match with.

A moment of crisis for Ipswich, with their sixth defeat in their last seven. With difficulty, with the usual glaring errors by individuals, Manchester United manages to win a match that at the end of the first half promised the worst. But let's get things straight. In the 4th minute Dorgu is not understood with Onana coming out and makes a senseless back pass that sends Philogene to the goal who cannot miss. The Red Devils' response comes in the 22nd minute: a cut free kick by Bruno Fernandes and an unfortunate own goal by Morsy. Four minutes pass and Amorim's team turns the tables with De Ligt, clever after a scramble from a corner to find the winning joker. In the 43rd minute Dorgu, not happy with the initial error, gets himself sent off for a killer tackle on Hutchinson. Just before the end of the first half, here comes the 2-2 for Ipswich again with Philogene: his slow cross from the right is not touched by anyone, surprises Onana and goes in the net. The winner, at the start of the second half, was a header from Maguire from a corner. Three vital points for United to try to get out of the crisis.

A decisive push to the Premier League for Liverpool who in Anfiled did not give any discounts and knocked out Newcastle 2-0. A victory that brings Slot's team to 67 points, +13 from Arsenal in second who however have a game less. This time Salah did not score but, for a change, he provided an assist. Newcastle struggled without their injured centre forward Isak. Tonali played 70 minutes but struggled to create in the grip created by the Liverpool midfielders. A low left-footed shot from Szoboszlai in the 11th minute opened it up, a right-footed shot into the top corner from Mac Allister in the 63rd minute closed it, on the invitation of Mo Salah, with his 17th assist in the league. The Magpies slipped to sixth place.

A deserved draw in London between two teams in good form. Brentford opened the scoring with Wissa's header at the end of the first half. Everton reacted in the second half, trying several times with Beto and in the 77th minute they found the equaliser with O'Brien, also with a header. The home team remains eleventh, the Toffees climb to 32 points and extend their lead over the relegation zone.
