Newcastle the winner at the bottom of the table

With Leeds United losing on Jesse Marsch's debut day and Chelsea overcoming Burnley, Newcastle emerged as the big winner of Saturday's Premier League matchday. The Magpies, with Trippier still out, defeated Brighton & Hove Albion and remained firmly out of the relegation zone.

Eriksen made his debut as a starter

In addition, Brentford, with Christian Eriksen starting, defeated bottom-placed Norwich City 1-3. The Dane played an active role in the three points with remarkable performance and the pass that led to the first of his team's goals. He took the corner whose extension sent Toney, author of a hat trick, into the back of the net.

Coutinho continues to shine

Excellent result also for Steven Gerrard's Aston Villa, who scored four goals at home to Southampton, a direct rival in the standings. Very good sensation in a team in which Coutinho is increasingly settled. He gave an assist and scored one of the goals that helped beat the Saints.

Wolves enter into crisis

The feeling is quite different at Wolves, who have now accumulated three consecutive defeats. The last of them was against Crystal Palace, who relied on goals from Mateta and Zaha to leave the Wolves in the lurch. Fortunately for them, their income in eighth place has saved them from being overtaken by other teams.
