What’s happening with the Premier League table after Saturday’s results

































Saturday’s Premier League results reshaped the picture near the top and added pressure on teams still waiting for a strong start. The available results do not provide a complete table, but they establish several key positions and point totals.

Brentford stayed unbeaten after drawing 2-2 at Aston Villa. The point kept the Bees among the top four after six league games.

Villa, meanwhile, have one win from their first six. John McGinn put them ahead in the 77th minute, but Kristoffer Ajer equalised for Brentford.

Arsenal moved level with Manchester City after coming from behind to beat Leeds United 2-1. James Justin had given Leeds the lead before Riccardo Calafiori and Bruno Guimaraes scored for the champions.

Chelsea beat Bournemouth 5-1, a result that offered Xabi Alonso’s side a boost ahead of a demanding run of fixtures. The match also featured the return of Joao Pedro and a strong attacking display from Chelsea.

Manchester United drew 1-1 with Tottenham Hotspur and have six points from their opening six league games. Bryan Mbeumo scored for United before Dominic Solanke equalised in added time, after Tottenham had been reduced to 10 men.

Those results leave Brentford in the top four and Arsenal level on points with Manchester City, while the exact positions and points totals for the other clubs are not established by the available results.
