Everton started brightly and led through Iliman Ndiaye's fine solo goal - picking the ball up on the right before beating several defenders and leaving the goalkeeper rooted to the spot. The Toffees were well on top, with Jack Grealish hitting the post, until Thierno Barry missed a sitter from three yards out in the 28th minute - and suddenly everything changed. Sunderland took control of the game. Xhaka scored their equaliser early in the second half with a deflected strike from 20 yards out after Enzo le Fee's effort was blocked. The Black Cats had the game's next 16 shots after that Barry miss - but could not find a winner. Sunderland are back in the Champions League places, more than a quarter of the way through the season, while Everton move above Fulham into 14th.

Pep Guardiola's side had suffered their first defeat in 10 games at Aston Villa last Sunday, with Haaland not finding the net for only the second time this season. But the Norwegian's double proved crucial against the in-form Cherries as City moved six points behind leaders Arsenal. Bournemouth almost made the dream start when they had the ball in the net after 46 seconds through Eli Junior Kroupi, but the goal was ruled out for offside as the teenager looked to score for a fourth successive league game. Despite the early scare, the hosts went ahead in the 17th minute courtesy of Haaland, who latched on to Rayan Cherki's neat header on the halfway line and there was only going to be one outcome as the striker stroked home an unerring finish. The visitors, though, restored parity just eight minutes later when Tyler Adams reacted quickest to crash home following Gianluigi Donnarumma's miscued punch, although the goalkeeper felt he had been held by David Brooks at the corner and was booked for his protestations. It was USA midfielder Adams' first goal in English football during spells at Leeds and Bournemouth. City, though, have a prolific marksman in Haaland and the striker linked up again with Cherki before going around Djordje Petrovic and coolly converted his 13th league goal of the campaign - and 26 in all competitions for club and country. He was denied a first-half hat-trick when a chipped effort was clawed away by the Bournemouth goalkeeper and also headed over at the start of the second period. Kroupi had a first-time shot batted away by Donnarumma and that miss proved crucial as Nico O'Reilly burst forward at the other end on the hour mark and drilled in a precise, finish low into the corner to seal an impressive success.

Jacob Murphy had given Newcastle the lead with an effort from the edge of the area in the opening stages - just seconds after West Ham captain Jarrod Bowen hit the post at the other end. But West Ham rallied and the hosts' eventually got their rewards when Lucas Paqueta lashed home an equaliser from outside the box. West Ham then took the lead just before half-time when the sliding Sven Botman turned Aaron Wan-Bissaka's cross into his own net. Nuno Espirito Santo's team went on to score a third in stoppage time when substitute Tomas Soucek tapped in the rebound after Pope had denied Bowen. It was the least West Ham deserved following a committed display by the hosts, who earlier had a penalty award overturned after a video assistant referee (VAR) review. Referee Robert Jones changed his mind after consulting his pitchside monitor, with the television footage showing Newcastle defender Malick Thiaw touching the ball before making contact with Bowen inside the area. But not only did West Ham go on to find a way back into the game - they won it. The Hammers remain in the relegation zone but are now three points behind 17th-placed Burnley following a first league win under Nuno since he took charge in September. Newcastle, meanwhile, have not triumphed on the road in the Premier League in seven months.

Lamine Yamal and Ferran Torres had put Hansi Flick's side in control, before Rafa Mir pulled one back for the visitors. Rashford's 61st-minute effort sealed the success that moved Barca back to second spot, five points behind leaders Real Madrid. Elche had the ball in the net first, but an offside flag quickly ruled out any celebrations. From then on, Barca took control as Yamal latched on to an Alejandro Balde pass before cutting on to his left foot and firing brilliantly into the far corner for the ninth-minute opener. The hosts doubled their lead two minutes later, Fermin Lopez pouncing on a slip from Adria Pedrosa before crossing for Torres to tap into an empty net. Elche halved the deficit three minutes before the break through Mir who broke the offside trap before curling a shot brilliantly into the bottom corner from the edge of the box. Rashford had the ball in the net early in the second half, but the linesman's flag was up for an offside against Fermin in the build-up. But the England forward wasn't to be denied and found the net soon after, collecting a Fermin pass and powerfully firing beyond Inaki Pena from close range. Mir hit the post twice in the second half, but wasn't able to spark an unlikely comeback with his efforts. Barcelona's victory stretched their home record against Elche in La Liga to 25 matches without defeat, winning 18 of them.

The 33-year-old Egyptian could not believe his luck when he was gifted the ball from Villa goalkeeper Emiliano Martinez's poor clearance before firing low into the unguarded net in first-half added time. Midfielder Ryan Gravenberch, back after missing three games with an ankle injury, sealed the three points in the 58th minute with a 20-yard shot that deflected in off Pau Torres to leave Martinez with no chance. Salah's goal meant he joined Ian Rush and Roger Hunt in becoming only the third Liverpool player to ever score 250 goals in all competitions for the club. After spells in both the 1980s and 1990s, Wales icon Rush is their all-time record scorer with 346 goals, while former England striker Hunt struck 285 times in the late 1950s and 1960s. Villa, who were aiming for a fifth successive league victory after losing their first five, twice hit the woodwork in the first half of a hugely entertaining match at a passionate and noisy Anfield. England's Morgan Rogers cut inside from the left flank and curled a fine 20-yard effort that thudded against the right-hand post in only the fifth minute, before Matty Cash's effort deflected off Virgil van Dijk with home keeper Giorgi Mamardashvili touching the ball on to the bar. Liverpool's success, their first in the league since a 2-1 victory over Everton on 20 September, took the reigning champions up to third in the table, although they are seven points behind leaders Arsenal.
