Third-placed Manchester United have secured a Champions League spot with a 3-2 victory at home to Liverpool.

Kobbie Mainoo scored the winner and says interim boss Michael Carrick has given him huge belief.

Bournemouth climbed to sixth - boosting their chances of European qualification - with a 3-nil win over Crystal Palace.

They're six points behind Aston Villa, who have welcomed struggling Tottenham this evening.

That one has just kicked off at Villa Park.

Former Manchester United manager Alex Ferguson has been taken to the hospital.

He reportedly felt unwell ahead of his old side's Premier League game with Liverpool at Old Trafford - which they won 3-2.

Celtic are now only off the top of the Scottish Premiership on goal difference following a 2-1 win at 10-man Hibs.
