Liverpool beat Wolves 2‑1, Brentford and Fulham win, Burnley hold Everton
Liverpool: Defending champion Liverpool closed out 2025 with a 2‑1 victory over Wolverhampton Wanderers in the Premier League, moving to 32 points and staying among the top five in the table on Saturday.
A quickfire double late in the first half from Ryan Gravenberch and Florian Wirtz — his first competitive goal for the club — put the Reds in command at Anfield. Santiago Bueno pulled one back for Wolves shortly after half‑time, but Arne Slot’s men held on to record their fourth consecutive win in all competitions.
At Gtech Community Stadium, a hat‑trick by Kevin Schade and a Djordje Petrovic own goal saw Brentford defeat Bournemouth 4‑1. Antoine Semenyo scored for the Cherries, but Brentford made it two successive wins to end the calendar year. Schade netted twice around Petrovic’s own goal before heading in his third in stoppage time.
Raul Jimenez’s late header earned Fulham a third successive victory in the Premier League, beating West Ham United 1‑0 at London Stadium. Five minutes before the end, Harry Wilson capitalised on a defensive mistake to set up Jimenez for his second goal of the week.
Burnley were held goalless by Everton at Turf Moor despite dominating the second half. Scott Parker’s side created enough chances to win, but Jacob Bruun Larsen missed the best opportunity when he fired over one‑on‑one with Jordan Pickford. The match ended 0‑0.
