Manchester City maintained their perfect start to the Premier League season, securing a 3-2 victory over Ipswich, marking their seventh consecutive win. Erling Haaland netted two goals, bringing his season total to eight, despite the club facing ongoing financial wrongdoing allegations. Manager Enzo Maresca suggested the controversy has galvanized the squad, with fans displaying defiance. Haaland sustained a foot injury late in the match, though Maresca indicated he was "OK," while Antoine Semenyo's injury appears more serious.

Elsewhere, Liverpool staged a 2-1 comeback win against nine-man Brentford, with goals from Victor Munoz and Alexander Isak, but lost Dominik Szoboszlai and Jeremie Frimpong to injury. Aston Villa secured a 1-0 away victory over Newcastle, courtesy of Johan Manzambi's goal. Fulham also eased pressure on manager Alvaro Arbeloa, achieving their first league win of the season with a 1-0 triumph against Hull, thanks to Alex Iwobi's goal.
