Saturday Recap
West Ham pulled off the shock of the day by beating Chelsea 1-0 thanks to Marko Arnautovic's early goal.
Arnautovic swapped passes with Manuel Lanzini before curling the ball past goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois after just six minutes.
It was the Austrian's first West Ham goal from his 12th attempt on goal, per Sky Sports Statto:
Chelsea pressed for a goal but could not find an equaliser despite dominating large parts of the game, as shown by Opta:
The defeat leaves Chelsea 11 points behind leaders Manchester City, having played a game more and with their hopes of retaining their Premier League title looking over.
Manager Antonio Conte said after the game his team were never in the title race this season, per ESPN FC's Liam Twomey:
Chelsea looked sluggish against West Ham, perhaps a combination of their UEFA Champions League tie against Atletico Madrid on Tuesday and the early kick-off.
The Blues now face a tough test away at Huddersfield Town, who have already beaten Manchester United this season, on Tuesday night.
Elsewhere in the capital, Tottenham made light work of Stoke, handing out a 5-1 thrashing that saw them move above rivals Arsenal in the table.
A Ryan Shawcross own goal put Spurs ahead before Son Heung-min doubled the hosts' lead. Two more from Harry Kane made the three points safe.
Kane has now scored an impressive 50 goals in 2017:
Christian Eriksen bagged the fifth before Shawcross scored a consolation as Spurs ended a poor run of Premier League form in some style.
BBC football reporter Ian Dennis said Spurs could have had even more goals:
The win will give Spurs a much-needed boost, particularly as they have two difficult away fixtures to come before Christmas: at leaders Manchester City and high-flying Burnley.
One of the most dramatic games of the day was at Selhurst Park, where Crystal Palace drew 2-2 with Bournemouth.
However, the hosts also saw striker Christian Benteke miss a stoppage-time penalty that would surely have given them the win.
The hosts went behind to Jermain Defoe's goal, but a frantic few minutes before half-time saw goals from Luka Milivojevic and Scott Dann put them 2-1 up.
However, Defoe netted again in first-half stoppage time to ensure both teams went in at the break on level terms after a breathless few minutes.
Sky Sports Statto showed how much Defoe seems to enjoy playing Palace:
The game then looked to be heading for a draw until Wilfried Zaha went down in the penalty area and Palace were awarded another spot-kick.
Benteke stepped up, although Milivojevic had already scored a penalty in the first half, but his shot was poor and easily parried by goalkeeper Asmir Begovic.
Match of the Day host Gary Lineker found the whole episode baffling:
Manager Roy Hodgson explained why Benteke took the kick after the match, per football commentator Gary Taphouse:
Despite the late disappointment, it was a vastly improved display from Palace, who showed the spirit and desire that will be needed if they are to move out of the relegation zone.
