Hull City 2-0 Liverpool<\/strong><\/p>\n

Liverpool\u2019s disastrous start to 2017 continued as the Reds lost out to Hull at the KCOM Stadium \u2013 stretching their winless run to five league games<\/span><\/span>.<\/p>\n

Alfred N’Diaye took advantage of a Simon Mignolet first half howler to give the Tigers a lead at the interval<\/span><\/span>. \u00a0Oumar Niasse added a second in the closing stages as Jurgen Klopp\u2019s side endured another frustrating afternoon.<\/p>\n

The result leaves Liverpool in danger of dropping out of the top four if Manchester City avoid defeat against Swansea.<\/p>\n

Crystal Palace 0-4 Sunderland<\/strong><\/p>\n

Sunderland secured their first win in seven league games<\/span><\/span> as they thrashed Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park.<\/p>\n

Goals<\/span><\/span> from Lamine Kone, Ibrahim Didier Ndong and a brace from Jermain Defoe in the first half, condemned former Black Cats manager Sam Allardyce to an embarrassing defeat in front a livid home support.<\/p>\n

The result moves Sunderland level on points with Palace on 19 points, with both sides occupying the two final relegation places.<\/p>\n

Everton 6-3 AFC Bournemouth<\/strong><\/p>\n

Everton resisted a second half Bournemouth fightback to hold on for all three points at Goodison Park.<\/p>\n

The Toffees looked set for a comfortable win after two goals from Romelu Lukaku and a strike from James McCarthy gave the hosts a comfortable half time lead.<\/p>\n

But the Cherries gave Ronald Koeman\u2019s a nervy last half-hour after Josh King scored twice to give Eddie Howe\u2019s team a glimmer of hope.<\/p>\n

Everton, however, added three further goals through Romelu Lukaku and Ross Barkley, inbetween a Harry Arter consolation goal for the visitors.<\/p>\n

Southampton 1-3 West Ham United<\/strong><\/p>\n

West Ham continued to enjoy life after Dimitri Payet as the Hammers picked up an impressive win away to Southampton.<\/p>\n

Manolo Gabbiadini gave the Saints the lead on his Premier League debut before Andy Carroll and Pedro Obiang fired the visitors ahead before the half time interval.<\/p>\n

And Slaven Bilic\u2019s side made sure they travelled back to London with all three points as Steven Davis diverted the ball into his own net, following a Robert Snodgrass free-kick.<\/p>\n

West Bromwich Albion 1-0 Stoke City<\/strong><\/p>\n

West Brom edged out Stoke City in a close encounter at the Hawthorns as Saido Berahino made a losing return to his former club<\/span><\/span>.<\/p>\n

James Morrison put the Baggies ahead after six minutes and despite Berahino\u2019s second half introduction, Mark Hughes\u2019 side could not find an equaliser.<\/p>\n

The result keeps Tony Pulis\u2019 team in eighth place while Stoke drop into the bottom half of the table.<\/p>\n

Watford 2-1 Burnley<\/strong><\/p>\n

Watford held on for a crucial victory against Burnley in a keenly contested clash at Vicarage Road.<\/p>\n

Troy Deeney and debutant Mbaye Niang gave the Hornets a two goal lead in the first half after Jeff Hendrick\u2019s sixth minute dismissal.<\/p>\n

Ashley Barnes scored a late penalty for the Clarets but it mattered for nothing in the end as Walter Mazzarri\u2019s side secured all three points.<\/p>\n
