Another Saturday, another day full of Premier League drama, with results that may well decide the futures of several clubs as little more than a month remains of the 2025-26 season.

In our first game, Tottenham Hotspur let a chance to climb out of the relegation zone slip as Roberto De Zerbi's side surrendered a 2-1 lead in second-half stoppage time against Brighton & Hove Albion, settling for a 2-2 draw and remaining in 18th place.

In the day's late contest, Manchester United went some way to cementing their place in next season's UEFA Champions League by defeating Chelsea 1-0 at Stamford Bridge, moving 10 points clear of the sixth-placed Blues.
