Burnley moved five points clear of the Premier League s relegation zone with a 2-0 win at home to Wolves secured thanks to Conor Coady s second-minute own goal and a late Dwight McNeil strike.

Clear chances were hard to find at Turf Moor on Saturday but Burnley s fast start saw them nudge in front when Chris Wood s shot bounced in off Coady after hitting the woodwork.
McNeil settled matters in the 77th minute after Ivan Cavaleiro wasted the best opportunity for the FA Cup semi-finalists, who remain seventh, although they are now winless in their last four away Premier L…
Liverpool s winning start to the Premier League season under Arne Slot was brought to a halt by Nottingham Forest at Anfield on Saturday, with Callum Hudson-Odoi scoring the only goal of the game.
The former Chelsea winger came on to replace Nicolas Dominguez in the 54th minute, and 18 minutes later, he took advantage of a lack of decisiveness from Liverpool defenders Conor Bradley and Ibrahima Konate to cut inside from the left and hit the far corner, with Alisson Becker in the Liverpool goal unable to do anything about it.
An extremely well-taken goal.
Trademark Callum Hudson-Odoi
