City secured a 14th straight win at Manchester United last Sunday and their latest victory saw them overtake Arsenal's record from February to August 2002.

Swansea had beaten West Brom last Saturday for their first win in seven games, but the heavy loss to City saw them fall two points adrift at the foot of the table.

Romelu Lukaku was on target as Manchester United responded from the derby loss with a 1-0 victory over Bournemouth at Old Trafford.

Tottenham returned to the Premier League's top four as Serge Aurier and Son Heung-min were on target in a 2-0 win over Brighton at Wembley.

Liverpool also climbed above Burnley, who fell to sixth on goal difference, despite a goalless draw at home to West Brom.

West Ham were unable to claim another scalp after last Saturday's win against Chelsea as Arsenal lost further ground on their rivals in a goalless draw at the London Stadium.

Jack Wilshere made his first league start for Arsenal in 577 days and Olivier Giroud his first league start of the campaign.

But it was the Hammers who went closest when Javier Hernandez hit the crossbar with a minute remaining.

Leicester thumped Southampton 4-1 to ensure Claude Puel's return to St Mary's was a victorious one.
