Ten-man Manchester City moved up to third as they withstood a spirited Burnley fightback in front of a relieved Etihad Stadium.
Fernandinho was dismissed towards the end of an even first half for a two-footed challenge on Johan Gudmundsson.

Fernandinho's red card was his second in the Premier League this season, triggering a four-match ban
But the hosts improved after the break as Gael Clichy squeezed home a shot before Sergio Aguero, on as a substitute, fired home from a tight angle.
  • Fernandinho is the first City player to see two reds in a Premier League season since Mario Balotelli in 2011-12.
  • Raheem Sterling has been directly involved in nine Premier League goals for City this season (5 goals, 4 assists), compared to eight in his first season at the club.
  • Gael Clichy scored just his third Premier League goal in 311 games (two for City, one for Arsenal). His last goal came in November 2014 v Southampton.
  • City have only kept a clean sheet in two of their 10 Premier League games at the Etihad this season.
  • Burnley's goal was only the third they have managed away from home this season.
  • The Clarets have still taken just one point from their away games this season, with 22 of their total of 23 coming at Turf Moor (drawing one and losing eight away).

Sunderland Vs Liverpool

WBA Vs Hull City

Manchester United moved level on points with fifth-placed Tottenham after victory at West Ham, who played for 75 minutes with 10 men following the controversial dismissal of Sofiane Feghouli.

The challenge that led to West Ham's Sofiane Feghouli being dismissed

  • Manchester United are now 13 games unbeaten in all competitions - longest run since March 2013 (18 games).
  • Ibrahimovic has already scored more goals in all competitions than Manchester United's top scorer last season (Martial, 17).
  • This is Mourinho's longest winning run in all competitions (seven) since January 2014 when in charge of Chelsea.
  • West Ham have lost consecutive Premier League games without scoring for the first time under Bilic.
  • Since the start of last season, no team has been shown more Premier League red cards than the Hammers (eight - level with Southampton).
  • Mata has been involved in 40 Premier League goals (25 goals, 15 assists) since his Manchester United debut. Only Wayne Rooney with 46 - 29 goals and 17 assists - has a better record in that time.
  • Dean has shown 14 red cards in the Premier League since the start of last season - at least six more than any other referee.
