Arsenal returned to winning ways in the Premier League with a hard-fought 2-1 victory over Fulham at the Emirates on Tuesday, marking their second consecutive win after a three-game slump.
Mikel Merino opened the scoring for the Gunners before Bukayo Saka, making his comeback from a hamstring injury sustained against Crystal Palace in December 2024, came off the bench to double the lead. Rodrigo Muniz pulled one back for Fulham in stoppage time, but it was not enough to deny Arsenal all three points.
Nottingham Forest strengthened their push for Champions League qualification with a historic 1-0 win over Manchester United. Former United winger Anthony Elanga netted the only goal of the game early on, securing Forest’s first-ever home-and-away league double over the Red Devils.
With eight games left in the season, Manchester United remains in 13th place, with their hopes of securing European football next season looking increasingly unlikely.
Wolverhampton Wanderers also boosted their survival hopes with a crucial 1-0 win against 16th-placed West Ham. Strand Larsen’s goal proved to be the difference as Wolves recorded back-to-back wins for the first time under new head coach VÃtor Pereira.
