Brighton left it agonisingly late to salvage a point against an impressive West Ham side, who were well worth their draw and, on another day, could quite comfortably have taken all three.

Tottenham finally rediscovered some spark on home turf as Xavi Simons delivered a dazzling performance in a 2–0 victory over Brentford, giving Thomas Frank a triumphant reunion with the club he once led.

Chelsea’s spluttering title push stalled again as Enzo Maresca’s side laboured to a lifeless 0–0 draw at Bournemouth, marking the first time since August that the Blues failed to score.

Emiliano Buendia ignited pandemonium at Villa Park and transformed the Premier League title race with virtually the last kick of the match, sealing a dramatic 2–1 victory over leaders Arsenal and propelling Aston Villa to within three points of the top.

Bournemouth host Chelsea at the Vitality Stadium this weekend with both sides looking for a reset of sorts, but from very different starting points.
