Mohamed Salah scored twice as Liverpool increased the pressure on Slaven Bilic with a 4-1 victory over West Ham.

Summer signing Salah put the visitors ahead in the 21st minute and Joel Matip made it 2-0 from a corner shortly afterwards.

The Hammers eventually responded through Manuel Lanzini in the 56th minute, but Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain struck back just 57 seconds later with his first Premier League goal for Liverpool and Salah then made it 4-1.

The win sees Liverpool close the gap on the top five, all of whom play on Sunday, while West Ham continue to hover around the relegation zone and manager Bilic remains under pressure heading into the international break.

Striker Vokes ended a five-match barren league spell with his first Premier League goal since bagging a brace in the opening-day 3-2 win at Chelsea.

Southampton pushed hard throughout the second half but Sean Dyche's men prevailed by netting the game's only goal.

Dyche showed again why he has been linked to the vacant Everton managerial role as he masterminded another important victory for his high-flying Clarets.

Glenn Murray nettedhis fourth goal in three Premier League games to hand Brighton a 1-0 win at Swansea.

The former Crystal Palace striker bundled the ball home with his thigh in an untidy but pivotal finish for Chris Hughton's Seagulls.

Rajiv van La Parra curled home a fine strike for his maiden Premier League goal as 10-man Huddersfield held on for a 1-0 home win over West Brom.

The hosts had Christopher Schindler sent off for two bookable offences, but were still able to grind out an impressive victory.

Steve Cook's added-time goal gave Bournemouth a vital 1-0 win at Newcastle, to move Eddie Howe's side out of the relegation zone.

Cook's late header ensured Howe's men claimed just their second league win since September.

The St James' Park clash appeared to be heading for a dispiriting goalless draw, especially when Marc Pugh missed a gilt-edged chance for Bournemouth late on.

But at the last Cook popped up to rise highest from a corner and head the Cherries to a deserved victory.

Xherdan Shaqiri curled in a free-kick then laid on a Peter Crouch header as Stoke twice came from behind to grab a 2-2 draw at home to Leicester.

Vicente Iborra and Riyad Mahrez found the net for the Foxes, as new boss Claude Puel extended his unbeaten start.
