A huge win over Chelsea in the London derbyIn general, Brighton had more shots, more touches in the opposition box, and a significant possession advantage, but it was all in vain, as they failed to find the net. Their biggest chance came in the 14th minute, when Yasin Ayari fired the ball over the bar instead of placing it into the empty net.That potential goal could have completely turned the tables in the match. Still, this way, Liverpool now sit just one point behind the Seagulls, who are third, right behind the leading duo, Manchester City and Arsenal.PREMIER LEAGUE – MATCHDAY 8SaturdayAston Villa – Manchester City 2-1 (1-1)/Jackson 6, 60 – Haaland 52/Arsenal – Everton 2-0 (1-0)/Konsa 7, Gabriel 68/Coventry – Fulham 0-1 (0-0)/Bobb 80/Chelsea – Tottenham 0-2 (0-0)/Penders 77 og, Tel 87/SundayHull – Brentford 1-1 (1-0)/McBurnie 24 pen – Outtara 63/Liverpool – Brighton 2-0 (2-0)/Gross 17 og, Isak 21/Manchester United – Bournemouth 0-3 (0-2)/Rayan 38, Tavernier 43, Evanilson 71/Crystal Palace – Newcastle 0-2 (0-0)/Osula 47, Barnes 58/18.30: (2.80) Sunderland (3.25) Leeds (2.60)***odds are subject to change***
