Arsenal vs Everton: goals without goals
Arsenal remained six points behind Liverpool after failing to break through an Everton side that had not scored an away goal in the league in more than six and a half hours of football.
The Gunners were as dominant as expected, but were unable to produce promising chances, as the Toffees held on to move five points clear of the bottom three with games in hand on Ipswich and Wolves.
Liverpool vs Fulham: Jota's goal is decisive
Liverpool recovered to save a point in an exciting match against Fulham, after Andy Robertson was sent off six minutes after Andreas Pereira put the visitors ahead in the 11th minute.
Cody Jacobo headed the equalizer after a cross from Mohamed Salah two minutes after the end of the first half, but Rodrigo Muniz put the Cottagers back in front 14 minutes from time. After returning from an 11-match absence due to injury, substitute Jota turned intelligently to shoot a free shot.
Chelsea will try to close the gap at the top to two points when they host Brentford on Sunday (7pm).
