Liverpool have ended their two-game losing streak with a routine 3-0 victory over Huddersfield Town in Tuesday night’s Premier League fixture at the John Smith’s Stadium.
Emre Can and Roberto Firmino put the visitors into a two-goal advantage at the break, with Mohamed Salah adding a third from the penalty spot to take Jurgen Klopp ‘s side level on points with third-placed Chelsea.
Huddersfield’s defeat is a fourth in succession in the top flight, and the Terriers sit just one point above the relegation zone.
Swansea City claimed a 3-1 victory over
Arsenal at the Liberty Stadium to move out of the Premier League relegation zone.
The Swans recovered from a goal down for a deserved win on home soil, as their revival under new boss Carlos Carvalhal – now four wins and three draws in eight outings under the Portuguese – continues to gather pace.
Even with new recruit Henrikh Mkhitaryan introduced as a second-half sub, Arsenal struggled to get going all evening and were beaten on their travels for a third time in four outings, leaving them eight points adrift of the top four.
