Premier League: EPL fixtures, results and latest table, 2 March
01/03/2019
EPL Fixtures and Results on 2 March Tottenham vs Arsenal 14:30
North London rivals Tottenham and Arsenal meet at Wembley for a Saturday lunchtime showstopper in the Premier League.
They do so with third place in the EPL suddenly up for grabs.
Spurs have seen their unlikely title charge hit the buffers in the last week, with back-to-back defeats on the road at Burnley and Chelsea.
It has left Mauricio Pochettino's men nine points adrift of leaders Liverpool.
More bothersome is what lies below.
Arsenal's good form including three wins on the spin has hoisted them to within four points of the enemy above.
A pair of straightforward home games did the Gunners no end of good, with Bournemouth dispatched 5-1 at the Emirates in midweek.
With Manchester United and Chelsea pushing at the right end, too, this one is about far more than pride under the Wembley arch.
Manchester United vs Southampton 17:00
Manchester United are eyeing up another three points in their bid to gatecrash the Premier League top four party, as they host Southampton.
The Red Devils rose to see off Crystal Palace 3-1 during the midweek action, backing up their injury-riddled draw with rivals and EPL leaders Liverpool last Sunday.
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's side come into the weekend a point behind Arsenal in fourth and two clear of sixth-placed Chelsea as the battle for Champions League places hots up.
Southampton eased their relegation concerns on Wednesday night when they saw off fellow drop candidates Fulham at St Mary's Stadium.
It was a first win in five, hauling the Saints above Cardiff and above the dotted line as the run in approaches.
Bournemouth vs Manchester City 17:00
Manchester City take their bid to win back-to-back Premier League titles to the south coast on Saturday as they face Bournemouth.
City have won four on the bounce but needed a combination of hard graft and a dodgy penalty to overcome West Ham by the only goal the the Etihad on Wednesday night.
Pep Guardiola's side are a point behind leaders Liverpool and the only challengers in town, after Tottenham endured a maddening week to fall off the pace.
Bournemouth continued their diabolical away form with a ninth consecutive loss during the week a 5-1 battering at the hands of Arsenal.
But Eddie Howe's side do fare better inside the confines of the Vitality Stadium.
They'll need to keep it up and then some if they're to avoid a fifth game without victory.
Wolves vs Cardiff 17:00
Wolves are hunting a return to winning ways when they meet relegation-haunted Cardiff at Molineux.
The high-flying hosts are without a win in three and slipped to an almost unthinkable defeat at Huddersfield on Tuesday night.
Cardiff are back in the drop zone following their home thrashing by Everton on the same evening.
West Ham vs Newcastle 19:30
West Ham and Newcastle meet at the London Stadium with both sides glad the fixture is an inconsequential mid-table affair.
Both suffered alarming starts to the campaign but have been steered clear of danger by their respective big-shot managers in Manuel Pellegrini and Rafael Benitez.
The Toon Army have recorded successive 2-0 home victories, while the Hammers sit tenth and were only denied a point at Manchester City in the week by virtue of a controversial penalty.
Burnley vs Crystal Palace 17:00
Burnley and Crystal Palace take to the Turf Moor field on Sunday as some sort of lower mid-table double act.
The pair have identical tallies of wins, draws and defeats in the Premier League this season.
Both, meanwhile, saw their unbeaten runs ended in midweek the Clarets at Newcastle while the Eagles were knocked off their perch at home to Manchester United.
Brighton vs Huddersfield 17:00
Brighton host rock-bottom Huddersfield with the pressure on to snap up three points after being dragged into the relegation dogfight.
The Seagulls have seen the sunny uplands of mid-table slip away, with a lousy run of results in 2019 leaving them just two points above danger.
Huddersfield are dead and buried but do have 19th-placed Fulham in their sights again after ending their agonizing wait for a win at home to Wolves in the week.
EPL Table on 2 March
EPL Fixtures and Results on 3 March Everton vs Liverpool 18:15
The Merseyside derby between Everton and Liverpool is the standout Sunday fixture in the Premier League.
Liverpool go into the weekend a point clear at the top of the EPL after returning to form with a booming 5-0 success at home to Watford on Wednesday.
Jurgen Klopp's side had drawn three of their previous four to pique the interest of the pursuing Manchester City.
Although hardly back in form, Everton thumped Cardiff on Tuesday night to arrest a sequence of three straight defeats.
It leaves Marco Silva's Toffees ninth in the table and going nowhere fast this season.
Mind you, who needs a form book for a cross-city derby?
Fulham vs Chelsea 16:05
Chelsea and Fulham play out the West London derby following a week of managerial bingo.
All bets were off regarding which bosses would be in the hotseat for the Craven Cottage clash.
Maurizio Sarri saved his skin with a 2-0 home victory over fellow Londoners Tottenham at Stamford Bridge in midweek.
It was a result that narrowed the gap to top four rivals Manchester United and Arsenal, although the Blues remain in sixth and with work to do.
Claudio Ranieri wasn't so fortunate.
The veteran Italian was relieved of his duties on Thursday after Fulham's zombified 2-0 loss at fellow strugglers Southampton.
Scott Parker, who ran the midfield for both clubs in his playing days, is in temporary charge of the 19th-placed side.
Watford vs Leicester 14:00
Brendan Rodgers takes charge of Leicester for the first time on Sunday, as they visit the club where it all began for the
