Premier League: Arsenal beat Brentford to take top spot, Manchester United end 2-match losing run

Arsenal vs Brentford

Kai Havertz was the star of the night as his late winner helped Arsenal beat Brentford 2-1 on Saturday, which powered the Gunners to the top of the standings.

Declan Rice put Arsenal ahead in the 19th minute before Yoane Wissa equalised in the first half extra time.

However, Havertz made sure his side claimed all 3 points as he scored in his 4th consecutive Premier League game to help the Gunners extend their winning streak in the League to 8 games.

Victory helped Mikel Arteta's men keep pressure on title rivals Liverpool and Manchester City, who lock horns on Sunday.

Manchester United vs Everton

Manchester United kept their top 4 hopes alive with a 2-0 victory over Everton in the Premier League on Saturday night.

Bruno Fernandes and Marcus Rashford made no mistake in converting first-half penalties as the Red Devils ended their 2-match losing run.

After defeats by Fulham and Manchester City, the result pushed United to within 3 points of fifth-placed Tottenham, although Ange Postecoglou's men do have two matches in hand.
