Leaders FC Arsenal were unable to convert their home advantage into their next win in the Premier League’s top game.
The Gunners had to settle for a 0-0 draw against third-placed Newcastle United.
Arsenal are still a comfortable eight points clear of champions Manchester City and nine ahead of the Magpies.
The record champions Manchester United are level on points with Newcastle after beating AFC Bournemouth 3-0 (1-0).
The Brazilian Casemiro (23rd), Luke Shaw (49th) and Marcus Rashford (86th) ensured the Red Devils’ home win, which was never in jeopardy.
Goalkeeper Bernd Leno celebrated the third win in a row with the strong promoted Fulham FC with a 1-0 (1-0) win at Leicester City and is now tied with Liverpool FC in seventh place with the Cottagers.
Brighton & Hove Albion, who clearly won 4-1 (1-0) at FC Everton, are right behind them.
