Arsenal 2-0 Manchester United
Wednesday night's 2-0 loss to Arsenal was Manchester United's first loss under Ruben Amorim.
United were without Lisandro Martinez and Kobbie Mainoo due to suspension, but Gabriel Martinelli, Oleksandr Zinchenko, and Jakub Kiwior were recalled to the host team.
The Gunners broke the deadlock in the first half thanks to a goal by Jurrien Timber, who rose to the occasion to head in a corner kick from Declan Rice.
Thomas Partey sent a cross into the penalty box, and William Saliba headed it in to double United's lead in the last moments of the match.
It stayed that way as the Gunners cruised to a second straight league win, and the men from Old Trafford failed to muster a noteworthy reaction.
Manchester City 3-0 Nottingham Forest
Manchester City snapped their winless streak with a 3-0 thrashing of Nottingham Forest and moved up to fourth place in the league.
Starting with Sunday's defeat to Liverpool, City welcomed back Kevin De Bruyne for the first time since September. Jack Grealish, Josko Gvardiol, and Jeremy Doku were also included in the starting lineup.
Bernardo Silva scored from an unbelievable angle after eight minutes, thanks to a decoy move in behind by De Bruyne.
At the half-hour mark, the defending champions got going. De Bruyne, this time, had room and time to receive Doku's pass and shoot in from 15 yards out.
When City's dominance was solidified, the points were secured. Doku scored a brilliant goal with a pinpoint finish after a fumble in the box, setting up Erling Haaland for a cutback.
