Gameweek 10 of the 2024/25 Premier League season was an absolute blast for football enthusiasts, featuring shocking upsets, comeback wins, and hard-fought draws.

Liverpool seized the initiative to go top of the table while Manchester City and Arsenal were shocked in their respective away games. Tottenham, meanwhile, thumped Aston Villa, while Chelsea grabbed a point at Old Trafford.

Let’s take a look at all the action from Gameweek 10. 

Premier League 2024/25 Gameweek 10 | Newcastle 1-0 Arsenal 

Arsenal started as heavy favourites against a struggling and inconsistent Newcastle side. However, playing at home, the Magpies struck the telling—and only—blow in the 12th minute when Anthony Gordon’s cross was converted by Alexander Isak with a header. Arsenal did have a chance to equalise through Bukayo Saka later on, but his shot went wide of the post. Newcastle also tried to threaten at the other end but failed to double their advantage before the break.

The second half saw Newcastle start again on the front foot, creating opportunities through Joe Willock and Isak. Arsenal didn’t have many clear-cut chances, and the best one fell to Declan Rice in stoppage time, but he fluffed the chance to score from a free header at the far post.

The Gunners have now dropped points in two consecutive Gameweeks and were beaten deservedly by Eddie Howe’s men.

Premier League 2024/25 Gameweek 10 | Bournemouth 2-1 Man City

The Cherries achieved the unbelievable when they beat Man City for the first time ever in the Premier League. Andoni Iraola’s team are no pushovers at home as they proved by beating Arsenal at the Vitality a few weeks back.

Against the Cityzens, Bournemouth started with great intensity and courage. They immediately forced a double save from City goalkeeper Ederson through shots from Antoine Semenyo and Justin Kluivert. Eight minutes later, they couldn’t be denied when fullback Milos Kerkez’ pass found Semenyo, who didn’t miss this time.

Bournemouth now had a shock lead, and City hardly looked like they could equalise. The hosts were the better side in the first half and went into the break with a well-earned 1-0 lead, which could have been bigger if not for Ederson.

The second half saw Evanilson almost double the advantage 40 seconds in, but Ederson saved his team again with another superb save. On the other end, Phil Foden missed the target from a Matheus Nunes cutback and Bournemouth punished the visitors as Evanilson found another superb pass from Kerkez and managed to toe it past Ederson.

Now 2-0 down, City responded typically and clawed one back as an unmarked Joško Gvardiol scored from a free header in the 82nd minute. They then almost equalised through Erling Haaland, but his shot was saved spectacularly by Mark Travers before bouncing off the post.

The Cherries deservedly took the three points, ending in the process Man City’s amazing unbeaten 32-game run and leaving Pep Guardiola with some serious defensive issues to solve.

Premier League 2024/25 Gameweek 10 | Liverpool 2-1 Brighton

Liverpool played the Seagulls for a second time in three days after beating them in the Carabao Cup earlier in the week. However, the visitors were the ones who started in impressive fashion as they beat the Liverpool press with ease and took the lead in the 14th minute—a Kaoru Mitoma pass went into the box and Ferdi Kadioglu latched onto it, putting the ball past Caoimhín Kelleher. Brighton almost doubled their lead when Georginio Rutter missed a 1v1 chance, forcing Kelleher into a brilliant save. Danny Welbeck also narrowly missed a free kick. 

Liverpool had to turn things around in the second half, and it showed in their intensity after the break. They started to keep more possession and put the Seagulls under intense pressure, with Mohamed Salah coming close to equalise, but Bart Verbruggen made an extraordinary save to deny the Egyptian.

Liverpool’s inevitable equaliser arrived in the 72nd minute through a curling cross from Cody Gakpo, which evaded everyone and landed into the far corner to the home fans’ delight. Two minutes later, Salah collected the ball from Curtis Jones on the counter, cut back in on to his left foot, and curled it past the Brighton goalkeeper. Now behind a goal, the Seagulls did try to get back into the game, but Liverpool’s stout defence in the last fifteen minutes saw them hold on to a precious three-point haul in the same week both Arsenal and Man City dropped points. Arne Slot’s men are now top of the table.

Premier League 2024/25 Gameweek 10 | Ipswich Town 1-1 Leicester City 

Ipswich Town were still looking for their first win of the season and looked like they would finally get it before Kalvin Phillips was sent off after a second yellow card. Ipswich had the majority of chances in the first half but were mainly restricted to shots from outside the box, with Conor Chaplin striking it wide off the post. The first half ended 0-0.

The Tractor Boys pushed for a goal as the second half kicked off and scored the opener through Leif Davis’ sumptuous volley into the far corner in the 55th minute. They were looking good for the three points for most of the half and even had a controversial penalty shout denied for a foul on Chaplin in the box. Phillips then got sent off in the 77th minute to add to the home side’s worries, which gave Leicester the lifeline they needed to take control of the game. They upped the ante in the dying minutes and late drama ensued as Jordan Ayew played a quick one-two with Jamie Vardy before putting the ball into the far corner to grab a point for the Foxes.

Premier League 2024/25 Gameweek 10 | Nottingham Forest 3-0 West Ham

Nottingham Forest’s extraordinary start to the season continued as they beat a ten-men West Ham side to rise up to third in the table. Forest took the lead through in-form marksman Chris Wood when he headed past Lukasz Fabianski in the 27th minute. The Hammers had a glorious opportunity to equalise when Lucas Paquetá struck wide from a loose ball into the box. To make matters worse, Edson Álvarez picked up two yellows in a span of three minutes towards the end of the first half.

The numerical advantage did wonders for Forest as they doubled their advantage in the 65th minute through Callum Hudson-Odoi’s curling shot. They then killed the game through Ola Aina’s wonder strike from distance into the top-left corner. 

While Forest look like a completely different team under Nuno Espírito Santo, West Ham’s abysmal run has put more pressure on Julen Lopetegui.

Premier League 2024/25 Gameweek 10 | Southampton 1-0 Everton 

The Saints got their first win of the season by beating the Merseyside Blues. They dominated possession in the first half but couldn’t find the target on two occasions—once from Cameron Archer and then from Taylor Harwood-Bellis.

Southampton were comfortably the second-best team in the second half as Everton created a flurry of chances but lacked efficiency. Saints goalkeeper Aaron Ramsdale was in the thick of the action, first saving Orel Mangala’s powerful strike and then denying Michael Keane at the near post. Pushing for a win, Southampton found the winner in the 85th minute through Adam Armstrong, who sent the ball past Jordan Pickford off a Yukinari Sugawara pass into the box. Everton did try to mount a comeback, and last weekend’s hero Beto came close with a shot off the crossbar before scoring late on only to end up offside.

Premier League 2024/25 Gameweek 10 | Wolves 2-2 Crystal Palace 

The Eagles started the game with positive intent even though they were without their main man Eberechi Eze. Daichi Kamada and Will Hughes forced saves from José Sá in a first half dominated by Palace. Pablo Sarabia probably had the most clear-cut chance of the half for Wolves when Matheus Cunha put in a sumptuous ball in his path only for Dean Henderson to fling it out of harm’s way.

Palace started positively in the second half and scored through Trevoh Chalobah around the hour mark. Wolves equalised through Jørgen Strand Larsen in the 67th minute when Cunha put him through on goal unselfishly. They then took the lead five minutes later as Cunha again put in a delightful pass to Gonçalo Guedes, whose cut-back found João Gomes. Palace did find the equaliser when Daniel Muñoz flicked on a header from a corner into the far post for Mark Guéhi to score in the 77th minute and thought they had nicked all three points in stoppage time only for Jean-Philippe Mateta’s close-range finish to be chalked off for a foul on José Sá.

Premier League 2024/25 Gameweek 10 | Spurs 4-1 Aston Villa 

Spurs decimated a hapless Aston Villa side in a hugely entertaining game, coming from a goal behind and upping the ante in the second half. Villa had taken the early initiative and scored through Morgan Rogers in the 32nd minute, exposing Tottenham’s poor defending on set pieces. Spurs failed to respond right away and went into the break trailing by a goal.

The home side came back roaring in the second half and put the Villans to the sword. Brennan Johnson cancelled out Rogers’ first-half opener with a tap-in off a Son Heung-Min cross at the far post. They then took the lead through Dominic Solanke, who converted from a reverse ball by Dejan Kulusevski in the 72nd minute. Five minutes later, Solanke scored his second of the game as Richarlison provided him the ball to slot past Emi Martínez to kill the game off. Spurs then added further salt to the Villa wounds when James Maddison converted a free kick in stoppage time.

Premier League 2024/25 Gameweek 10 | Man United 1-1 Chelsea 

This game had a bite from the beginning with early confrontations between both sets of players. Fresh from a thumping win midweek under interim manager Ruud van Nistelrooy, Man United started as the favourites at home but were quickly made aware of the attacking prowess of this young Chelsea side. However, it was a largely uneventful and drab first half at times, with only Noni Madueke and Marcus Rashford coming close as their shots hit the crossbar. 

The beginning of the second half saw more control and possession from United as they started to grow into the game and put pressure on the Chelsea back line. One such instance created an opportunity for Rasmus Højlund, who was then brought down by Chelsea goalkeeper Robert Sánchez in the box, resulting in a penalty. United captain Bruno Fernandes then stepped up and calmly converted the spot kick in the 70th minute, though the ecstasy was short-lived as Moisés Caicedo scored from a volley four minutes later to steal a point for the visitors.

Premier League 2024/25 Gameweek 10 | Fulham 2-1 Brentford 

Fulham welcomed the Bees to Craven Cottage on Monday night. The last game of Gameweek 10 ended in wild scenes from the Fulham supporters as Harry Wilson came off the bench to turn hero for his side. 

Fulham had the early chances and forced a couple of saves from Mark Flekken. However, it was Brentford who scored the opener against the run of play as their midfielder Vitaly Janelt scored a fabulous goal beyond a diving Bernd Leno in the 24th minute. Fulham did have a couple of chances but couldn’t trouble Flekken, and so Brentford went into the break with a 1-0 lead.

The second half started with Fulham trying to find an equaliser, but they couldn’t create any clear-cut chances. Marco Silva then made some substitutions to force the issue and finally the equaliser came in the 92nd minute when Harry Wilson flicked an Adama Traoré cross into the far post. Brentford came close through Fábio Carvalho on the other end, but Leno somehow saved the chance. The Cottagers then sealed the three points in dramatic fashion when an Antonee Robinson cross was headed in by Wilson in the dying minutes.
