Adrian Clarke picks out three key battles between players and teams going head-to-head in Matchweek 29. Player analysis - Julian Alvarez.

Haaland leads the Premier League scoring charts with 28 goals and has hit nine in his last three games in all competitions.

Haaland’s father, Alf-Inge, was quoted by Norwegian TV during the week saying his son had traveled to Barcelona for treatment. “It is not a big issue but today he was not right.” “He is not fit.

Grealish had saved a goal and then created one moments later. Jota ran through on goal but was held up by Manuel Akanji, though he did manage to lay the ball off. And in minute 53 City then secured a two-goal advantage when Gundogan was in position to convert from inside the area, after an initial shot from Alvarez had been blocked.

Arsenal concede a free-kick in a dangerous area after Thomas Partey is dispossessed far too easily. Arsenal defend well but concede a corner. Leeds win a free-kick as they continue to search for a route back into this game. The defender strikes it well first-time and a deflection off Zinchenko takes it past Ramsdale. White and Meslier tussle in the box and get a talking to from the ref, which only delays the game further. It's all over at the Emirates and Arsenal have the three points largely thanks to a much-improved second-half performance from Mikel Arteta's men.

Julian Alvarez, Kevin De Bruyne, Ilkay Gundogan and Jack Grealish were all on target for Pep Guardiola's side in a goal-packed return to Premier League action ...

“You thought it was a lack of respect?” he asked a reporter. “Nothing changed,” Guardiola said after his 100th win at Etihad with City. Premier League top scorer Haaland, whose haul of 42 goals in all competitions includes 28 in the league, suffered a groin injury against Burnley on March 18.

Liverpool have now conceded three or more goals in nine games this season and the punishment did not end there for the visitors. If City's first two goals were the fruit of collective brilliance, Liverpool's defending for the third summed up a miserable season for Klopp's men. Alvarez was the creator this time as his cross-field pass freed Mahrez to race into acres of space behind the Liverpool defence. Despite the absence of their 42-goal striker, Pep Guardiola's men made a positive start as Alisson Becker was forced into saves from Gundogan and Rodri before Riyad Mahrez fired a free-kick inches wide. A chastening defeat leaves Jurgen Klopp's men still seven points adrift of the top four down in sixth. Manchester City coped without the injured Erling Haaland to keep the Premier League title race alive by coming from behind to thrash Liverpool 4-1 on Saturday.

The Gunners also enjoyed a convincing win on Saturday, beating Leeds United 4-1 to maintain an eight-point advantage at the top of the table. If both teams continue to perform as they have been doing, the tie that could be crucial in the title race is the match between the two at the Etihad on April 26, after which City will have only six fixtures remaining and Arsenal five. Three second-half goals from City at the Etihad Stadium on Saturday helped secure a comfortable and deserved win for the home team against a side that in previous seasons had been City’s only challenger for the league title.

Overall, he’s taken charge of over 850 top-flight games across the Premier League, Ligue 1, Serie A and La Liga with 227 of these games coming in the Premier League across his career at Chelsea, Fulham, Leicester City and the Hornets – famously winning the Premier League title against all the odds with Leicester in 2015-16. At the time of his sacking, he was the oldest manager in the Premier League (70) and he was also the oldest to manage in Serie A last season (69) by nearly six years. This was his final match in the competition, before relinquishing his short-term position as boss of the Blues to Antonio Conte. Ferguson won 13 top-flight English league titles as a manager during his 27 years at Manchester United – more than twice as many as any other manager in the history of the league and seven more than his closest rivals. He quit the club just a day after this game, with Sunderland winless in eight top-flight matches in 2015-16. Obviously – with Robson and Hodgson never having done so – Fergie is the oldest manager to win a Premier League title. There’s only been one 5-5 draw in the entire history of the Premier League, but it came in Sir Alex Ferguson’s final game as a manager.

He secured 83 wins and a points-per-game average of 1.60 across his 188 games in the competition. This average was even lower than his predecessor Claudio Ranieri – the fifth oldest Premier League manager – who averaged 0.54 points-per-game at the Hornets.

73 min Bruno robs Bruno on the halfway line and Newcastle break. He miscontrols the ball but recovers to rattle a shot that is crucially blocked by Botman.

Newcastle break and Gordon drives a dangerous low cross that is turned behind by Dalot. Martial was on the line and may have helped to force the ball against the post and away. It was a great performance and we’re glad to get the win and the clean sheet. De Gea pushes it against the underside of the bar, an outrageous reaction save, and then Schar heads the rebound against the post! We knew it had gone but it left a sour taste and we had to put it right today. He runs at Varane, cuts inside and shoots well wide from the edge of the area. 87 min Anderson’s cross is headed wide by Burn at the far post.

Newcastle will be kicking themselves for not taking the lead in that half. It's easy me seeing that, we've got a group of players who can deliver that. They can't complain about leaving the North East pointless and now sit just one point ahead of fifth-place Tottenham, albeit with a game in hand. United appear to have weathered the storm and have slowed the game down in the past few minutes. Nice play from Sabitzer and Antony on the right but Newcastle clear the ball well and almost start a counter. It's a lovely run from Saint-Maximin and he puts in a delicious into the box for Willock, but he blasts it well over the bar from close range. Excellent cross from Newcastle down the right wing and the ball comes in for Isak. It only results in a corner but Saint-Maximin is growing in the game and could be dangerous. United have whipped a couple of dangerous balls into the box in the last few minutes and looked a bit more threatening. Martial takes a nice first touch in the box and curls a shot towards the Newcastle goal. Burn gets a touch to knock it behind for a corner, but it looked a dangerous shot from the Frenchman. Tripper whips in a really good free kick from just in front of the corner flag, and Wilson rises to head home from close range.

Newcastle's third successive league win -- and their first against United since 2019 -- took them above their fourth placed opponents on goal difference. West Ham are just one point above the relegation zone, but they have a little breathing space thanks to their first win in three league games. Yet, in the midst of a superb personal campaign, this was a rare dud for Rashford and United looked toothless as a result. United's first major trophy in six years was supposed to be the start of a new golden era, but instead they have failed to score in three successive league matches for the first time since February 2020. United are without a win in their last three league games, thrashed 7-0 at Liverpool and then held to a goalless draw by lowly Southampton before this setback on Tyneside. Newcastle avenged their League Cup final loss against Manchester United as Joe Willock and Callum Wilson clinched a 2-0 win that lifted the Magpies into third place in the Premier League on Sunday.

Chelsea have fired manager Graham Potter with the club languishing in the middle of the Premier League standings despite spending around US$630 million on ...

Leicester actually made a profit of about US$65 million in that window. “The task ahead of us in our final 10 games is clear,” Srivaddhanaprabha said. But Leicester’s players were no longer responding to Rodgers and there was no sign of an improvement in performance levels.

Chelsea have sacked manager Graham Potter, the London club said on Sunday after a string of poor results left the team 11th in the Premier League.

Potter was a surprise choice to replace Thomas Tuchel who was sacked by the club in September after a poor start to the season. "In his time with the club, Graham has taken us to the quarter final of the Champions League, where we will face Real Madrid. "We have 10 Premier League games remaining and a Champions League quarter-final ahead.

Two Premier League managers were axed overnight as the competition enters the home stretch. First it was Leicester manager Brendan Rodgers, whose side is now in severe danger of relegation after picking up just one point in six games. Then came Chelsea ...

“We have 10 Premier League games remaining and a Champions League quarterfinal ahead. He has always conducted himself with professionalism and integrity and we are all disappointed in this outcome,” co-owners Todd Boehly and Behdad Eghbali said in a statement. I understand when you lose at home, the emotion of the game is such that people are going to be disappointed and frustrated and angry. “Chelsea FC has announced that Graham Potter has departed the club. “We have the highest degree of respect for Graham as a coach and as a person. Graham has agreed to collaborate with the club to facilitate a smooth transition,” Chelsea said in a statement.

Graham Potter shown the door at Chelsea after six months on the same day Brendan Rodgers leaves Leicester after four years.

Leicester actually made a profit of about $US65 million ($NZ104 million) in that window. “The task ahead of us in our final 10 games is clear,” Srivaddhanaprabha said. But Leicester's players were no longer responding to Rodgers and there was no sign of an improvement in performance levels. The same two managers would likely be on a short list of options for Tottenham, who are also searching for a permanent manager after firing Antonio Conte last weekend. “He has always conducted himself with professionalism and integrity and we are all disappointed in this outcome.” The American ownership's first managerial appointment ultimately backfired. * In a long statement, Srivaddhanaprabha said Rodgers gave Leicester “some of our finest footballing moments” and, off the field, “embraced the culture of the club and helped cultivate an outstanding developmental environment.” Leicester's leadership took the decision with a heavy heart, hailing Rodgers as “one of the most successful managers in the club’s history" while – in the same statement announcing his departure – saying it was a necessary move if the team was to stay in England's lucrative top division. Potter tried a back four and a back five, wingers as wing backs and full backs as center backs, all while trying to implement his own style and under the glare and pressure of working at one of the most talked-about clubs in soccer. Potter was brought in from Brighton on a five-year deal despite his lack of experience coaching at soccer’s biggest clubs – in a somewhat obscure coaching past, the only trophy he'd won was the Swedish Cup in 2017 – and he failed to get the best out of an expensively assembled squad. Chelsea ran out of patience with Graham Potter on Sunday, firing the English manager with the club languishing in the middle of the Premier League standings despite a spending spree on new players totaling $630 million across the last two transfer windows.
