This Saturday, the late afternoon multiplex in England promised to be important for several teams. Even if no big name took part in the four matches scheduled for 4 p.m., several teams played crucial matches. This is particularly the case for Wolves. PL red lantern, Wolverhampton received Southampton, penultimate at kick-off. Finally, on their bases, the men in yellow gleaned the first match of their season in the championship. While Pablo Sarabia launched his team perfectly from the 2nd minute (1-0), Matheus Cunha doubled the lead after returning from the locker room (2-0, 51st). With this success, Wolverhampton climbs to 18th place and leaves the place of dead last to the Saints.

At the same time, a prolific meeting took place in London between Brentford and Bournemouth. At the end of a great battle and thanks in particular to a double from Yoane Wissa (27th, 58th), the locals took the upper hand despite the inspired Cherries. The Bees climb to 10th place. Also in the capital, Crystal Palace lost at home in the derby against Fulham. While Emile Smith-Rowe had launched the Cottagers before the break, Harry Wilson, untenable for several weeks, confirmed his team’s success at the end of the match thanks to a double. Fulham climb to an encouraging sixth place. Finally, West Ham, at home, conceded a goalless draw against Everton. Both teams are standing still in the second part of the standings.

The 4 p.m. meetings:

Brentford 3-2 Bournemouth: Wissa (27th, 58th), Damsgaard (50th) / Evanilson (17th), Kluivert (49th)

Wolverhampton 2-0 Southampton: Sarabia (2nd), Cunha (51st)

Crystal Palace 0-3 Fulham : Smith-Rowe (45+2nd), Wilson (83rd, 90+3rd)

West Ham 0-0 Everton
