Premier League Table: Final Week 7 2018 Standings, Results and Week 8 Fixtures

Bournemouth battled to a 2-1 victory over Crystal Palace at the Vitality Stadium on Monday evening, when a late Junior Stanislas penalty clinched three points to move Eddie Howe's side up to seventh in the Premier League.

Mamadou Sakho gave away a silly penalty at the death after Patrick van Aanholt equalised early in the second half to cancel out David Brooks' superbly finished opener. The Cherries move level on points with Watford, while Palace have now suffered four defeats in their last six top-flight outings.

Manchester City sit level on points with Liverpool at the top of the standings but edge the Reds on goal difference ahead of their clash at Anfield on Sunday, which is set to have a big impact on the title race.
