Last Night’s Football Results: Yesterday’s Scores & Fixtures (Updated)

The weekend’s Premier League action delivered tight contests, a few surprises, and a clear statement from the league leaders. Arsenal extended their advantage at the top with a narrow win at West Ham, while several mid-table sides shared the points. Here is a full breakdown of last night’s football results, along with the updated table and what comes next.

What Were the Football Results Last Night? (All Major Leagues)

West Ham United 0 – 1 Arsenal
0-1
Arsenal’s defensive solidity earns three points and extends lead to seven points.

Burnley 2 – 2 Aston Villa
2-2
Villa drop precious points in the Champions League race after a spirited Burnley fightback.

Crystal Palace 2 – 2 Everton
2-2
Everton’s resilience keeps them clear of the relegation zone, but they remain in the bottom half.

Nottingham Forest 1 – 1 Newcastle United
1-1
Newcastle miss a chance to leapfrog rivals; Forest continue to battle near the foot of the table.

  • Goal of the night: Arsenal’s winner at West Ham came from a well‑worked set‑piece routine that left the home defence static.
  • Disappointment: Aston Villa’s failure to hold a two‑goal lead against Burnley could prove costly in the top‑four race.
  • Statistical milestone: Arsenal have now kept five clean sheets in their last seven away matches.
  • Injury concern: West Ham’s key midfielder was substituted in the second half with what appeared to be a muscle issue.
  • Tactical shift: Everton changed to a back five after going 2‑1 down at Crystal Palace and managed to rescue a point.
