Arsenal still top the charts despite Old Trafford defeat

Despite the defeat, Mikel Arteta's charges are still top of the standings with 15 points, a point ahead of second-placed Man City, who were held to a 1-1 draw by Aston Villa in their own outing.

Tottenham Hotspur's 2-1 hard-fought win over Fulham on Saturday has them occupying third place with 14 points, while Brighton complete the top four podium, thanks to their 5-2 huge win over Leicester City.

United, meanwhile, are fifth on the log with 12 points, two points ahead of Chelsea, who beat West Ham 2-1 during the London Derby staged at Stamford Bridge on Saturday.

Elsewhere, Liverpool are also in the top-half with nine points despite their goalless draw with Everton during the Merseyside derby.

Leicester City's struggles continue

Meanwhile, Leicester City are bottom of the table with just a point as their struggles continued on Saturday against Brighton.

The Foxes, who have four of their last fixtures, continued with their poor run as they were demolished 5-2 by the Seagulls at Falmer Stadium.

Newly-promoted side Nottingham Forest and West Ham are also in the relegation zone with four points each.
