The reigning champions Liverpool maintain their dominance by achieving their third straight victory, whereas a number of big clubs such as Man City, Arsenal, Tottenham, Chelsea, and Man United have faced differing scenarios.
The highlight match of round 3 between Liverpool and Arsenal ended with a narrow 1-0 victory for the team coached by Arne Slot. The only goal was scored in the 84th minute by Dominik Szoboszslai, continuing The Kop’s habit of “sealing opponents” in the final minutes this season.

With a perfect 9 points from 3 matches, Liverpool solely leads the table, having scored 8 goals and conceded only 4. The English champions are displaying defensive solidity, attacking explosiveness, and especially resilience at crucial moments.
Chelsea temporarily rise to second place after a comfortable 2-0 win over Fulham. However, The Blues’ gameplay remains unconvincing as the connection between lines is still not smooth. Arsenal dropped to third after losing to Liverpool but still keep their pursuit goal intact, trailing Chelsea by just one point.

Tottenham disappointed greatly by unexpectedly losing 0-1 to Bournemouth at home. This defeat drops Spurs to fourth place, facing the risk of being overtaken by teams behind if they don’t bounce back soon.
After a shocking loss in the Carabao Cup midweek, Manchester United made a strong comeback by beating Burnley 3-2 at Old Trafford. Yet, the Red Devils’ defense remains worrisome due to repeated mistakes. With 4 points, MU temporarily sits 9th, just 2 points shy of the top 4.

In contrast to Man United, Manchester City continue to slide after a 1-2 defeat to Brighton. The former Premier League champions have only earned 3 points from 3 rounds, placing them as low as 13th. Coach Pep Guardiola faces multiple issues in defense and midfield as key players’ form declines.
At the bottom of the table, Newcastle remain disappointing with a 0-0 draw against Leeds, still winless and slipping to 17th place. Aston Villa and Fulham face similar struggles, while West Ham caused a major surprise with a 3-0 away win over Nottingham Forest to escape the danger zone.
This Premier League season is unfolding with high drama, with defending champions Liverpool temporarily dominating the top spot but closely chased by rivals. Round 4 promises more intense battles that could significantly alter the league standings.
