London, Sep 3 (Ians) Manchester City remain top of the Premier League with four wins from four games after beating Fulham, while Tottenham moved into second after an impressive win away to Burnley.
Julian Alvarez opened the scoring for City half hour into the game before Tim Ream equalized for Fulham two minutes later on Saturday night.
Nathan Ake’s header made it 2-1 on the stroke of halftime with Fulham asking for a positional offside, which the Var didn’t give and another hat-trick from Erling Haaland – the first a trademark finish when through on goal, the second a powerfully hit penalty and the third a crisp finish inside the box – sealed the win, Xinhua reports.
Lyle Foster gave Burnley a fourth minute lead at home to Tottenham, but they were then blown away by another impressive display from Ange Postecoglou’s side.

London, Aug 21 (Ians) James Ward Prowse had a memorable West Ham United debut, assisting twice in their 3-1 triumph over Chelsea.
The England international, recently signed from Southampton, set up Nayef Aguerd’s seventh-minute opener with a corner. Later, he provided the assist for Michail Antonio’s 53rd-minute goal, restoring West Ham’s lead after Carney Chukwuemeka’s 38th-minute equalizer for Chelsea, reports Xinhua.
Lucas Paqueta secured the victory for David Moyes’ team in injury time, converting a penalty.
In a robust response to their opening-day loss to Newcastle United, Aston Villa thrashed Everton 4-0. John McGinn, Douglas Luiz (who converted a penalty after Everton’s Jordan Pickford fouled Ollie Watkins), Leon Bailey, and Jhon Duran were the scorers in a match dominated by Villa.
Everton’s need to reinforce became more evident after the game, especially with injuries to Dominic Calvert-Lewin and Alex Iwobi exacerbating their woes under Sean Dyche.

Nottingham Forest entertain Sheffield United in the game that opens the weekend on Friday, with Steve Cooper’s men hoping to repeat some of their good moments from last weekend’s defeat to Arsenal.
Sheffield were comprehensively outplayed at home by Crystal Palace on their return to the top flight, but the midweek signing of Tom Davis and Gus Hamer should add more bite on the pitch, reports Xinhua.
Saturday’s big game sees newly crowned European Supercup winners Manchester City at home to Newcastle, although City coach Pep Guardiola has already complained about the lack of recovery time after Wednesday’s final.

London, Oct 18 (Ians) The Premier League has a full list of midweek fixtures, with the majority of the matches to be played on Wednesday night.
What would have been the biggest game of the week, a clash between Arsenal and Manchester City, has been postponed to allow the Gunners to play a Europa League tie against Psv Eindhoven, but there is still plenty on offer.
Liverpool’s home game against West Ham allows Jurgen Klopp’s men to close the gap on the top of the table after their weekend victory over Manchester City.
The game will show what Liverpool’s fitness levels are like against a rival that is improving after a slow start to the campaign, and forwards Jarrod Bowen, Gianluca Scamacca and Lucas Paqueta will pose a threat to the home defense.
There are two derbies on Wednesday, with Bournemouth at home to Southampton and Brentford entertaining Chelsea.

Rio de Janeiro, Sep 23 (Ians) Raphinha has praised competition for places in Brazil’s national team ahead of friendlies against Ghana and Tunisia.
The Barcelona forward is expected to feature on the right side of a five-man attack when the South American giants meet Ghana in France later on Friday.
But he knows that one mediocre performance could cost him his starting berth amid pressure from Antony, who has made a positive impression at Manchester United since joining the Premier League club earlier this month.
“I’m preparing a lot to be in good shape, physically and mentally, whether as a starter or as a reserve,” Raphinha told reporters.
The 25-year-old has made an inauspicious start to his time at the Camp Nou, having arrived from Leeds United in July. He has made seven appearances across all competitions for the Catalan club, scoring once and providing one assist.

London, Aug 30 (Ians) There are five Premier League matches on Wednesday which promise to show just how high some teams can aim this season and perhaps increase the pressure on others.
Liverpool’s home match against Newcastle United is the pick of the bunch as Liverpool try to build on their 9-0 thrashing of Bournemouth at the weekend.
Jurgen Klopp still has a long injury list limiting his options for squad rotations and it’s hard to see him making more than cosmetic changes to the starting 11.
Newcastle travel after Allan Saint-Maximin’s spectacular volley gave them a 1-1 draw away to Wolves, but the talented forward will miss the visit to Anfield with a thigh injury.
That should allow club-record signing Alexander Isak to make his debut in a match which will show if Newcastle can mount a serious challenge for the top-six this campaign.
