EPL Table: 2018 Standings After Saturday's Week 16 Results and Top Scorers
Liverpool temporarily climbed one point above Manchester City and claimed the Premier League summit on Saturday after they trounced Bournemouth 4-0 at the Vitality Stadium thanks to a Mohamed Salah hat-trick.
Salah's second hat-trick in Liverpool colours—complemented by a Steve Cook own-goal in the 68th minute—and also became the second player to reach goals in the double digits this term alongside Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang.
Arsenal's frontman failed to find the back of the net against Huddersfield Town, but Lucas Torreira was on hand to provide the 83rd-minute winner in a tense 1-0 victory at the Emirates Stadium.
