The Blues dropped to fourth place – nine points behind leaders Arsenal - after a disappointing display at Elland Road. With boss Daniel Farke under pressure, the hosts dominated the first half and struck twice through first Premier League goals for both Jaka Bijol and Ao Tanaka. Chelsea rallied at the start of the second period and half-time substitute Pedro Neto pulled one back in the 50th minute, but Enzo Maresca's men suffered a massive blow when they conceded a third in the 72nd minute after a defensive howler. Tosin Adarabioyo's mistake allowed Leeds striker Dominic Calvert-Lewin a tap-in to restore his side's two-goal cushion and seal a desperately-needed second win in nine games to take them out of the bottom three. It was a first win for Farke's men over a team above 13th in the Premier League for more than three years, and came at a crucial time as their German manager faced growing frustration from the stands amid speculation about his future following their poor run of results.

An own goal from Union forward Ilyas Ansah and a Harry Kane header put them two goals up inside 24 minutes, but Leopold Querfeld halved the deficit from the penalty spot after Jonathan Tah was penalised for handball. Diogo Leite headed into his own net too in first-half stoppage time to restore Bayern's two-goal cushion, before Querfeld again scored from the spot after Kane was adjudged to have fouled Leite while contesting an aerial ball. Bayern - who have not been beaten in domestic games since March - looked vulnerable at set pieces in a 2-2 draw at Union in the Bundesliga last month, but it was the hosts who twice failed to deal with corners and Vincent Kompany's men took full advantage. Kane headed in his 25th goal of the season in all competitions, a tally only matched by Real Madrid's Kylian Mbappe. It was also the movement of the England captain at a Michael Olise free-kick that forced Leite to head past his own goalkeeper, but Kane gave the hosts a lifeline when he caught Leite with a raised arm. The chaotic nature of the game suited Union, who put Bayern under pressure by dominating the second balls, but missed a handful of decent chances to equalise. Luis Diaz thought he had put the game to bed with a clinical finish in the 75th minute, but mistimed his run and the offside flag went up. Bayern join 2023 winners Bayer Leverkusen and holders VfB Stuttgart in the last eight, after they defeated Borussia Dortmund and VfL Bochum respectively.

Raphinha cancelled out Alex Baena's opener for the visitors at the Nou Camp, before Dani Olmo's smart finish turned the match around with 25 minutes left to play and Ferran Torres scored a late third. Barcelona trailed league leaders Real Madrid by five points after a 2-1 defeat in El Clasico in October, but five games later have a buffer at the top having played one game more. Los Blancos will travel to Bilbao to face Athletic Club on Wednesday. Atletico took a 19th-minute lead when Baena latched on to a long pass over Barcelona's high defensive line and beat goalkeeper Joan Garcia with a dinked finish. The assistant referee flagged for offside, but the goal was given after a video assistant referee (VAR) check. Raphinha drew Hansi Flick's side level seven minutes later when he ran on to Pedri's precision through ball, rounded Jan Oblak and finished into the empty goal. Barca dominated the remainder of the first half and were awarded a penalty when Pablo Barrios felled Olmo, but Robert Lewandowski blazed his effort well over the crossbar. The second half descended into a breathless end-to-end encounter, and Barca took advantage when Olmo dragged a shot into the bottom corner following a mazy dribble from Lamine Yamal. Diego Simeone's side should have equalised when Thiago Almada somehow missed an open goal after rounding Garcia, but Torres wrapped up the win with a close-range finish after controlling Alejandro Balde's cross. Victory for Barcelona was soured by a shoulder injury sustained by Olmo in the act of scoring, as well as glaring missed by Lewandowski and Raphinha.

Spurs looked to be heading for a sixth defeat in just eight games before their captain stepped up when they needed him most once again at St James' Park. Romero, who had earlier equalised to cancel out Bruno Guimaraes' second-half opener, caught the ball superbly after Newcastle failed to deal with a corner to send the travelling support wild up in the gods. Newcastle had been set for a third successive league win when substitute Anthony Gordon scored a late penalty to make it 2-1. Spurs were unhappy that the penalty had been awarded in the first place but, after being ordered by the video assistant referee (VAR) to take a second look on the pitchside monitor, referee Tom Bramall ruled that Rodrigo Bentancur had fouled Dan Burn, dragging the towering defender to the floor. However, Spurs showed their powers of recovery to secure a precious point as Frank's side stay above Newcastle in 11th place.

Norway international Haaland got his landmark goal in the 17th minute of Tuesday's game at Craven Cottage, firing in first time from Jeremy Doku's cross. It meant he reached the century in 111 league games, 13 fewer than it took previous record holder Alan Shearer. The goal also ended a mini drought for Haaland, having gone three consecutive games without scoring. It was his 15th goal in 14 league games this season but was just a taste of what was to come. Haaland got the assist for Manchester City's second, slipping the ball through for Tijjani Reijnders to coolly lift the ball over Bernd Leno and into the back of the net. Leeds came back from 2-0 down to level 2-2 against Pep Guardiola's side at the weekend before Phil Foden got a late winner, and the in-form forward must have thought he had quashed thoughts of a repeat of that when he got City's third. A fantastic header by Emile Smith Rowe moments later gave Fulham some hope at 3-1 down, but Foden got his fourth goal in two games soon after the break, smartly firing home at the near post from Haaland's ball. Doku's shot then deflected in off Sander Berge to put City in a seemingly unassailable 5-1 lead. But Fulham would not give in and Alex Iwobi curled in their second from 20 yards to signal a continuing threat to City, before substitute Samuel Chukwueze had the home side dreaming of an incredible comeback. First, he drove in from a cross, before placing a neat finish into the back of the net six minutes later. Momentum was with Fulham as home fans roared them on and City's followers watched on nervously in the away end, and Josh King had a shot cleared off the line in the final seconds. But City held on to secure a win that means they are just two points behind Arsenal, albeit having played a game more, with the Gunners hosting Brentford on Wednesday. Fulham, meanwhile, are six points above the relegation zone but have played a game more than those sides below them.
