Arsenal Lead the Pack as EPL Drama Unfolds Across the Weekend
What a weekend it’s been in the Premier League! From Arsenal’s steady climb to the top to a dramatic finish between Nottingham Forest and Manchester United, the action kept fans on edge from start to finish. Let’s unpack all the big moments from a packed Saturday of football.
At Turf Moor, Arsenal made it look effortless once again. They cruised past Burnley with a 2–0 win, keeping another clean sheet and extending their lead at the top of the table. Viktor Gyökeres got the Gunners started early, heading home from a Declan Rice corner, and then Rice himself doubled the advantage midway through the first half. From there, Arsenal simply controlled the tempo, showing once again why they’re the most balanced side in the league right now. With this result, they moved seven points clear at the summit—proof that Mikel Arteta’s men are in no mood to slow down.

Meanwhile, over at the City Ground, Nottingham Forest and Manchester United played out a thrilling 2–2 draw. It was a match packed with twists and momentum shifts. Casemiro had put United in front in the first half, but Forest came out flying after the break with quick goals from Morgan Gibbs-White and Savona. Just when it seemed Forest might take all three points, up stepped Amad Diallo with a sensational volley to rescue a point for United. The goal, checked by VAR for handball, was confirmed, and it was a worthy equaliser—pure quality from the young winger.
Elsewhere, several other results shaped the day’s storylines. Fulham ended their losing run with a comfortable 3–0 win over Wolves, who were reduced to ten men before halftime. Brighton also impressed with a 3–0 win over Leeds, as Diego Gómez found the net twice. And at Selhurst Park, Crystal Palace were back to winning ways after a 2–0 victory against Brentford, thanks to Jean-Philippe Mateta’s continued fine form.
By full-time, the table told an interesting story. Arsenal sat comfortably at the top with 25 points from ten games, followed by Bournemouth, Tottenham, and Sunderland—yes, Sunderland—rounding out the early top four. Manchester United’s draw left them trailing, while Wolves remained rooted at the bottom with just two points from ten matches.
It wasn’t just the results that caught attention—individual brilliance did too. ESPN’s latest ranking of the top 50 Premier League players saw Arsenal dominate, with Declan Rice, Bukayo Saka, William Saliba, and Gabriel Magalhães all in the top five. Erling Haaland of Manchester City, unsurprisingly, claimed the number one spot.
So, from clinical finishes to table-shaking results, it’s been another action-packed Premier League weekend. Arsenal look unstoppable for now, but with so many twists still to come, the title race is just heating up.
