That has the feel of a pivotal weekend in this season's Premier League both at the top and at the bottom. Liverpool threw away the chance to move into second and are now in a real dogfight for a Champions League place.

At the bottom of the table, Sunderland are now level on points with Crystal Palace while Bournemouth are being dragged down into the relegation fight but the big story of the week is Hull City. Four points from games against Manchester United and Liverpool is a massive boost for their hopes of survival and at this stage, they look to be the form team at the bottom.
