Trent Alexander-Arnold inspires Liverpool to a comeback win, Anthony Gordon and Ollie Watkins extend their goalscoring runs and Luca Koleosho finally breaks his Burnley duck – but who claims top spot in this week’s POWER RANKINGS?
This Premier League weekend saw Arsenal retain top spot with a 2-1 win over Wolves and the European places remain under fierce competition.
Title holders Manchester City drew for the first time in a row for the first time since 2009, dropping points against a Tottenham Hotspur side that was missing a number of key players, but others stepped up for Ange Postecoglou's side.
At the bottom, Burnley ended a miserable home record by beating Sheffield United 5–0 to move above them in the table.
There were a lot of goals scored on Sunday and no team kept a clean sheet, meaning a lot of attackers got on the scoresheet.
Let's take a look at what this means for Mail Sport's midweek fixtures power rankings.
