Liverpool returned to the top of the Premier League table with a vital 2-0 victory at Cardiff City on Easter Sunday.
Manchester City has put the pressure on Jurgen Klopp's side on Saturday as the champions narrowly beat Tottenham in Saturday's lunchtime kick-off to retake top spot.
However, goals from Gini Wijnaldum and James Milner secured another victory for Liverpool, who now lead the table with three games to go - albeit having played a match more than City.
Elsewhere, relegated Fulham earned their first away win of the season at Bournemouth, Harvey Barnes claimed a late draw for Leicester against West Ham and Watford defeated bottom-of-the-table Huddersfield to move up to seventh.
In Saturday's late-kick off, Newcastle moved up to 12th as Ayoze Perez's hat-trick sealed a 3-1 win over Southampton at St James' Park.
Manchester United's top four hopes took a huge hit as they were embarrassed in a 4-0 defeat to Everton at Goodison Park on Sunday, and Arsenal fared little better later in the day as they lost 3-2 at home to Crystal Palace - a win which guarantees the Eagles' survival.
Those defeats for Spurs, Arsenal and United meant Chelsea could go third with a win against Burnley on Monday night - but the Clarets held the Blues to a 2-2 draw at Stamford Bridge.
