The hosts beat Brentford 3-0 on Saturday but the biggest result of the weekend came at the London Stadium 24 hours later, as title rivals Arsenal edged out West Ham United 1-0.

Manchester City vs Crystal Palace: Premier League preview
A roller-coaster Premier League title race looked to have swung back in Manchester City's favour when West Ham United's Callum Wilson scored a stoppage-time equaliser against Arsenal on Sunday, but the celebrations in East London - and East Manchester - were cut short when VAR intervened and the goal was disallowed.
Pep Guardiola's side knew that if the Gunners dropped points they would move top of the table with just two games to play if they beat Crystal Palace on Wednesday, but now they are relying on Mikel Arteta's side to slip up.
City have barely put a foot wrong in the last four months, stringing together a 14-match unbeaten run in the Premier League which includes 10 victories, and they will surely have to win their final three league fixtures to stand any chance of snatching the title from Arsenal.
Guardiola's side have made a habit of hitting form at the right time in previous seasons, but have they left themselves too much to do this time around?

Palace head to the Etihad Stadium still on a high from reaching their first European final, having closed out an aggregate victory over Shakhtar Donetsk in the last four of the Conference League last Thursday.
You would not blame Oliver Glasner's men for having one eye on the showpiece in Leipzig on May 27, especially with their hopes of qualifying for Europe via the Premier League all but over.
However, they can still have a huge say in the title race, with the trip to City closely followed by the visit of Arsenal on the final day of the season, so there will be plenty of interest in the Eagles from fans of other clubs.
