Fulham became the second side to be relegated from the Premier League in the space of four days, as defeat at Watford sealed their return to the Championship.
Scott Parker’s side knew they needed to claim at least a point at Vicarage Road to earn a brief stay of execution, but suffered a ninth successive loss after losing 4-1 at Vicarage Road.
Elsewhere, Manchester United missed the chance to leapfrog Arsenal and Tottenham in the race for the top four as they suffered a shock 2-1 defeat at Wolves.
With this being a fabled double-game week, Spurs took the chance to jump back ahead of Arsenal as they dispatched Crystal Palace in the first official match at the new Tottenham Hotspur stadium.
Chelsea comfortably beat Brighton on Wednesday, while Man City reclaimed top spot ahead of Liverpool as they saw off Cardiff City at the Etihad Stadium.
Here are the Premier League standings on gameweek 32…
