Newcastle United edged closer to a return to the Champions League and Manchester United maintained their top-four pursuit with Premier League wins on Saturday while at the bottom there were vital victories for Bournemouth and West Ham United.
Frank Lampard's comeback as Chelsea's caretaker manager fell flat, however, as the Londoners went down 1-0 at Wolverhampton Wanderers whose survival hopes also got a huge boost.
But Eddie Howe's side hit back after the interval with Joelinton's attempted cross going in off goalkeeper David Raya's foot before Swedish striker Alexander Isak, who had conceded the penalty which Tony converted, finished emphatically. Manchester United had gone third after goals by Scott McTominay and Anthony Martial secured the points against Everton earlier in the day.
Everton ended the day fourth from bottom 27 points, ahead of free-falling Nottingham Forest on goal difference. Arguably the game's biggest talking point was red cards for Tottenham's stand-in manager Cristian Stellini and Brighton boss Roberto De Zerbi after a furious clash in the second half. A dreadful error by England midfielder James Maddison condemned Leicester to a crushing defeat against Bournemouth which left them on 25 points and second from-from-bottom before last-placed Southampton took on Manchester City later.
