Here is a look at the Premier League table as it stood after Round 24 in the current 2024/25 season. Defending champions Manchester City were hammered 5-1 by Mikel Arteta’s Arsenal at the Emirates and that took the Citizens out of the top four, with Chelsea taking their place following a 2-1 come-from-behind victory over London rivals West Ham.
Enzo Maresca’s CFC were the biggest gainers in Round 24- they won when all their immediate rivals- the likes of City, Bournemouth, Aston Villa and Newcastle United, all lost.

Nottingham Forest also made a statement of sorts by thumping Brighton 7-0, practically doubling their goal difference (+6 to +13) in the process.
Wolves climbed out of the relegation zone after beating Aston Villa 2-0, with Leicester City taking WWFC’s place in the bottom 3 after they were beaten 4-0 by David Moyes’ Everton.
PL match results for Round 24
Everton are now nine points clear of the relegation zone and also have a game in hand, giving them some much needed breathing space in the bottom half of the log.
Southampton also claimed victory over Ipswich- only their second win of the whole league season so far.
There was a pretty even split of home and away victories in this Premier League game week, with five home teams & five away teams winning.
