Antonio Conte is in his worst run as manager for 12 years following yet another defeat to Wolves on Sunday.

Tottenham were soundly beaten at home by Wolves in north London, as first-half goals from Raul Jimenez and Leander Dendoncker inflicted a 2-0 loss on Spurs.

This was Tottenham’s third straight Premier League defeat in a row under Conte, the first time he has lost three league games in a row since 2009 when he was Atalanta manager.

Tottenham have now slipped to eighth place in the Premier League, with Wolves moving a point and place above them.

West Ham failed to take advantage in the race for the top four as they could only manage a 2-2 draw at Leicester.

The Hammers needed an injury-time equaliser from Craig Dawson to earn a point after goals from Youri Tielemans (penalty) and Ricardo Pereira had overturned a 10th minute strike from in-form Jarrod Bowen.

West Ham are fourth, one point above Manchester United, who missed out on the chance to move into the top four as they were surprisingly held to a 1-1 draw at home to Southampton on Saturday.

Ralf Rangnick’s side continued their trend of scoring the opening goal only to ultimately drop points. With Cristiano Ronaldo in the midst of his worst run since 2009, it was left to Jadon Sancho to open the scoring for the Red Devils.

However, a precise finish from Che Adams levelled the match early in the second half, and Man Utd could not have any complaints that they were unable to find a winner. Indeed, it was arguably Saints who were the more threatening side.

Man Utd, therefore, are fifth.

So it was a good weekend for sixth-placed Arsenal, who didn’t play and have games in hand on those above them.

At the top of the table, meanwhile, Manchester City had unsurprisingly few issues overcoming lowly Norwich to reinforce their lead at the top of the standings. Raheem Sterling scored a hat-trick in a 4-0 win, with Phil Foden grabbing the other goal.

The Canaries remain in the bottom three but at least saw Watford suffer a 2-0 loss at the hands of Brighton.

Liverpool did close the gap at the top back to nine points with a narrow 1-0 win at bottom-placed Burnley, thanks to a goal from Fabinho.

Newcastle opened up a four-point gap on those in the relegation zone by beating Aston Villa 1-0 thanks to a free-kick from Kieran Trippier – his second successive free kick goal.

In another pivotal clash in the relegation battle, meanwhile, Everton brushed aside Leeds 3-0. Donny van de Beek was on song for the Toffees, who eased to a win thanks to goals from Seamus Coleman, Michael Keane and Anthony Gordon.

In Saturday’s other fixture, Brentford and Crystal Palace shared the points in a scoreless draw, keeping both well away from immediate trouble.
