Londres -

The Chelsea (4th) remains in the 'Champions' zone after defeating Watford 3-0 to recover the fourth place, which had been taken by Manchester United (5th) a few hours earlier, after winning 5-2 against Bournemouth (19th). In another match, Arsenal won as a visitor against Wolverhampton, which had Ecuadorian Leonardo Campana on the bench.

At a moment in the season where the fight to qualify for the next Champions League tightens, none of the contenders gave up ground and the teams in the top zone achieved three points in the 33rd round of the Premier League.

Chelsea, who had to win to maintain the fourth place, got rid of Watford without much trouble thanks to the goals from Frenchman Olivier Giroud (28), Brazilian Willian from a penalty kick (43) and Ross Barkley (90+2).

With these three points, Frank Lampard's team remains one point behind Leicester (3rd), who also defeated Crystal Palace (13th) 3-0 and in the fight for the 'Champions' they maintain a two-unit difference over a great form Manchester United (5th).

Arsenal (7th) does not give up on qualifying for the Champions League and defeated a direct rival, Wolverhampton (6th), by 2-0, with goals from Bukayo Saka, the first one the 18-year-old scored in the Premier League with a left-footed half-volley from inside the box (43) and Frenchman Alexandre Lacazette (86), with a right-footed shot to the far post.

Ecuadorian Campana saw no reward for his call-up in Wolves as he remained on the bench in the match against the Gunners and still hasn't made his debut in the English championship.

In the first match on Saturday, Brighton (15th) defeated bottom-placed Norwich, thus practically guaranteeing their relegation to the Championship. (D)
