Africa-Press – Uganda. <\/strong><\/span>Liverpool and Chelsea did little for their chances of climbing into the Premier League’s top four with an uninspiring 0-0 draw as a 2-0 defeat at West Ham pushed Everton closer to relegation on Saturday.<\/p>\n

In a repeat of last season’s League and FA Cup finals, which Liverpool won on penalties after goalless draws, neither side could break the deadlock at Anfield to remain rooted in mid-table.<\/p>\n

Both sides are nine points off the top four and could slip further behind should Newcastle win at Crystal Palace later.<\/p>\n

Chelsea did have the ball in the net early on, but Kai Havertz’s strike was ruled out for offside after a VAR review.<\/p>\n

The visitors introduced new 100 million euro ($108 million) signing Mykhailo Mudryk off the bench in the second half and the Ukrainian came as close as anyone to a winner when he fired into the side-netting.<\/p>\n

Jurgen Klopp admitted he might not have made it to 1,000 games in his managerial career if there had been too many similar matches in the previous 999.<\/p>\n

But he was satisfied with a first Premier League clean sheet since October.<\/p>\n

“I’m okay with 0-0 because you have to accept these steps,” said Klopp.<\/p>\n

Everton in danger <\/b><\/p>\n

Things look even bleaker across Merseyside as Everton’s 69-year stay in the top flight looks ever more precarious.<\/p>\n

Jarrod Bowen struck twice in the first half as West Ham won 2-0 at the London Stadium to move out of the bottom three thanks to their first win in eight league games.<\/p>\n

Leicester eased the pressure on Brendan Rodgers with their first point since the World Cup break but were denied a vital win by a late Brighton equaliser in a 2-2 draw at the King Power.<\/p>\n

Kaoru Mitoma’s sumptuous strike gave the in-form visitors the lead, but Marc Albrighton quickly levelled and Harvey Barnes put Leicester in front just after the hour mark.<\/p>\n

Teenage striker Evan Ferguson came off the bench to head in off the post in the 88th minute and snatch a point that moves Brighton into the top six.<\/p>\n

Bournemouth dropped into the bottom three despite ending a run of six consecutive defeats with a 1-1 draw against Nottingham Forest.<\/p>\n

Jaidon Anthony put the hosts in front, but Sam Surridge came back to haunt his former club seven minutes from time.<\/p>\n

Southampton remain rooted to the foot of the table after a 1-0 defeat to Aston Villa that was disrupted by a drone flying above the stadium.<\/p>\n

Play was temporarily halted and players taken off the pitch at St. Mary’s for their own safety towards the end of the first half.<\/p>\n

Once the action got back underway, Villa maintained their upward momentum under Unai Emery as Ollie Watkins headed in Douglas Luiz’s free-kick 13 minutes from time.<\/p>\n
