With that in mind, here
are three winners and three losers from Premier League Gameweek 29.
Winners
Arsenal
Arsenal were one of the big winners in Gameweek 29 after securing another important victory. Bukayo Saka delivered the key moment, scoring the winning goal in the 1–0 win over Brighton.
The result takes the Gunner’s seven points ahead of Manchester City at the top of the table, giving them more control in the title race.
Chelsea
Chelsea were one of the standout teams in Gameweek 29 after a strong 4–1 victory over Aston Villa. Joao Pedro was the star of the match, scoring a hat-trick and showing great movement and finishing in front of goal.
His performance played a huge role in the win and helped increase his goal tally for the season.
With their goal still focused on qualifying for the Champions League, results like this boost their confidence and keep them firmly in the race for a top-four finish.
Everton
Everton enjoyed a positive Gameweek after securing an important win and showing strong defensive discipline. They controlled key moments of the game and limited their opponents’ chances, which helped them collect three valuable points.
Jordan Pickford produced a solid performance in the 2-0 win over Burnley.
With goals from Tarkowski and Dewsbury-Hall contributing to the result, Everton remained compact at the back and managed to secure a clean sheet.
It was Pickford’s 10th shutout of the Premier League season, keeping him firmly in the race for the Golden Glove.
Losers
Aston Villa
Aston Villa endured a difficult Gameweek after conceding four goals in their home defeat to Chelsea.
They struggled to deal with Chelsea’s attacking movement and were unable to respond after falling behind. The defensive performance lacked stability, and the result slowed their progress in the league.
Liverpool
Liverpool suffered a setback after losing 2–1 to Wolves at Molineux in a match they were expected to control.
Despite creating chances and pushing for an equaliser, they conceded a late goal and failed to take points from the game.
The defeat makes their push for Champions League qualification more challenging as they continue to drop important points.
Tottenham Hotspur
Tottenham’s poor run of form continued with a 3–1 defeat to Crystal Palace. The result extended their winless streak and increased pressure on their league position.
Defensive inconsistencies and struggles in key moments have left them closer to the lower half of the table, raising concerns about potential relegation pressure if results do not improve quickly.
Gameweek 29 brought clear winners and losers across the Premier League, with results shaping the table as teams move forward.
Attention now turns to Gameweek 30, where teams will look to build on their momentum or bounce back from disappointment.
