LONDON: Pressure grew on Everton manager Frank Lampard after a 2-0 defeat by Leicester left them 15th in the Premier League.

Everton have won only one of their last six matches, four of them ending in defeat.

Leicester’s positive recent form continued as they made it three wins from four with a 2-0 victory away at Everton.

Youri Tielemans netted from range – the second consecutive away game in which he has scored from outside the area – before Harvey Barnes confirmed the result with a late strike.

Leeds boss Jesse Marsch has more breathing time after his men pulled off a remarkable comeback to beat Bournemouth 4-3.

The Whites had taken the lead in the opening few minutes from the penalty spot, but they found themselves behind less than 20 minutes later thanks to efforts from Marcus Tavernier and Philip Billing.

Dominic Solanke’s second-half effort looked like it may have wrapped up the result, but Leeds fought back led by substitute Sam Greenwood.

The midfielder found the back of the net with a strike from distance, before his corner was converted by captain Liam Cooper.

With 84 minutes on the clock, Crysencio Summerville – who was the hero in last week’s win over Liverpool at Anfield – struck again to give the home side all three points.

Manchester City needed a late penalty to secure a 2-1 home victory over Fulham.

Julian Alvarez’s early goal looked like the match would go according to script, but the visitors proved a much tougher test than Pep Guardiola would have expected.

Joao Cancelo was given a straight red inside the opening half hour, piling further misery on fantasy football players after Erling Haaland and Phil Foden were both benched, with Andreas Pereira converting the resulting penalty.

Haaland came off the bench in the second-half, and thought he had netted a winner before VAR ruled it out for offside.

In the final seconds of the game, the forward did score his 23rd goal of the season after converting a late spot kick.

Brighton came from behind to make it back-to-back victories with a 3-2 win away at Wolves.

An action-packed first-half saw both teams score twice before the break, with Nelson Semedo also receiving a straight red card.

Wolves were limited to a few low-probability chances in the second-half, and Brighton managed to net a late winner through midfielder Pascal Groß.

Wolves, who confirmed the appointment of Julen Lopetegui before the game, remain 19th in the table.

Nottingham Forest snatched a point in the final minute of a 2-2 draw with Brentford.

Morgan Gibbs-White had fired the hosts into the lead, but Yoane Wissa’s 75th minute effort looked to have won it after Bryan Mbeumo converted a penalty in first-half added time.

However, Bees defender Zanka turned the ball into his own net, but it wasn’t enough to move Forest off the bottom of the table.
