Premier League: Arsenal and Manchester City eased to all thee points in their respective midweek clashes with Luton and Aston Villa, heaping the pressure on Liverpool.

Alexis Mac Allister fired Liverpool back to the top of the Premier League as the Argentine’s superb strike inspired a tense 3-1 win against lowly Sheffield United on Friday .

On a potentially pivotal evening in the title race, Liverpool moved two points clear of second placed Arsenal with eight games left for each of the three teams involved in a gripping battle for supremacy. The Reds had to come from behind to beat Brighton last weekend, but Klopp insisted he was feeling “calm” as the title race approaches a dramatic climax.

Grbic sheepishly plucked the ball from the back of the net as Nunez celebrated his 19th goal in all competitions this season. Yet they rocked Anfield to its foundations in the 58th minute. Gustavo Hamer’s superb pass picked out McAtee on the right flank and he cleverly cut back inside before whipping a cross into the area.
