At the end of a completely crazy match between Newcastle and West Ham punctuated by a victory for the Magpies, the 30th day of the Premier League continued with several matches to follow simultaneously, this Saturday afternoon. Fifth before kick-off, Tottenham intended to resume their march forward to temporarily enter the top 4. This required a success against Luton Town, in the fight for survival in the English elite. Picked cold by the opening score of the Hatters signed Chong (3rd), the Spurs benefited from a twist of fate to equalize, Kaboré deceiving his own goalkeeper on a strong cross from Werner (51st). By pushing hard, the Lilywhites forced the opposing lock thanks to Son (85th) to snatch the three points at the end of a lively game.

At the same time, Chelsea hosted Burnley at Stamford Bridge. Opposed to the penultimate in the championship, the Blues were able to exploit their numerical superiority following the exclusion of Assignon to take the lead thanks to Palmer, scorer from the penalty spot (44th). If the English international, author of a double, thought he would offer victory to his team, the Clarets found sufficient resources to respond to their opponents in quick succession through Culen (47th) and O'Shea (81st ). Despite a goal from Mateta, Crystal Palace conceded a draw on the lawn of Nottingham Forest (1-1). In the south of England, Bournemouth carried out a great operation in the race to maintain their position by dominating Everton by the smallest of margins (2-1).
