Arsenal maintained a searing pace at the top of the Premier League with a straightforward 2-0 win at Burnley, while Liverpool snapped a dreadful four-match losing run with a 2-0 victory over Aston Villa to climb provisionally to third, Reuters reported.

The misery continued for Wolverhampton Wanderers at the bottom as they suffered yet another defeat on Saturday.

Mikel Arteta's Arsenal moved seven points clear of the pack ahead of the rest of the weekend's action with first-half goals by Viktor Gyokeres and Declan Rice taking Arsenal to 25 points from their opening 10 games of the season, according to Reuters.
