Nottingham Forest moved back to third on the table with a big win away at Tottenham on Monday night, intensifying the battle for the top five in the Premier League. Chelsea finally picked up their first away win of the year in the Premier League at Craven Cottage.
Aston Villa thrashed Newcastle 4-1 at Villa Park, Manchester City left it late to beat Everton, and Brentford also defeated Brighton 4-2 at the G-Tech Stadium.
Manchester United failed to carry their last-minute heroics against Lyon in the Europa League into the Premier League, as they lost 1-0 at home to Wolves. Arsenal thrashed Ipswich 4-0, and Leicester confirmed their relegation after losing at home to champions-elect Liverpool.
Let’s rank the top 5 best players from Premier League Matchweek 33
Pedro Neto
Neto was Chelsea’s most vibrant player against Fulham, and the Portuguese forward earned his reward late in the game. He created the most chances in the West London derby and also fired in a spectacular winner that brought Chelsea back into UCL contention and secured their first away win in 2025.
Youri Tielemans
The Belgian dominated against a very stubborn Newcastle side. The Villans ran riot, and Tielemans pulled the strings from midfield. He completed the most passes, created three chances, won the most duels (11), drew the most fouls, and also made the most tackles against the Magpies — a complete midfield performance in a crucial game.
Leandro Trossard
In a match Arsenal needed to win to avoid getting dragged into a UCL qualification battle and to delay Liverpool’s title celebration, Trossard delivered. The Belgian scored twice to help Arsenal secure a 4-0 win away at Ipswich.
Bryan Mbeumo
Another brilliant performance from the Cameroonian forward. Mbeumo scored twice against Brighton and provided an assist for his strike partner Yoane Wissa. He also created the most chances (7), completed the most dribbles (4), and won the most duels (12) in the match.
Ollie Watkins
A striker who thrives in big moments. Aston Villa needed a win against an in-form Newcastle side to keep their UCL hopes alive, and Watkins stepped up from the first whistle. He scored after just one minute, hit the woodwork twice, and also assisted Ian Maatsen for Villa’s second.
Ollie Watkins is the best player in Premier League Matchweek 33.
