In the 17th round of the English Premier League, three matches have already concluded today.

At Stamford Bridge, London's Chelsea hosted Sheffield United, who have had a challenging start to the season. The "Blues" took the initiative from the start, but both their goals came only in the early second half. Goals from Cole Palmer and Nicolas Jackson secured Chelsea's win.

Chelsea 2 - 0 Sheffield United

Palmer 54', Jackson 61'

Meanwhile, Manchester City had the opportunity to climb to the second position, at least temporarily, by defeating Crystal Palace. The hosts swiftly took the lead, scoring in the middle of the first half with a goal from Jack Grealish. In the second half, Rico Lewis doubled City's advantage. Although Palace managed to score one goal in response, and just when it seemed the match was ending in City's favor, Crystal Palace earned a penalty. Olise converted from the penalty spot in the 95th minute, resulting in Guardiola's side dropping points again.

Newcastle had the chance to break their run of poor form against Fulham, who scored 10 goals in their last two matches. The visitors were reduced to ten men in the middle of the first half as Raúl Jiménez received a red card for a harsh foul. With an extra player advantage, Newcastle confidently secured victory. Worth noting was the first Premier League goal from 17-year-old Lewis Mailly.

Newcastle 3 - 0 Fulham

Mailly 57', Almirón 64', Bern 82'

Red Card: Jiménez 23' (Fulham)
