There was late drama in Saturday's early kick-off, with Raheem Sterling netting a stoppage-time winner to earn Manchester City three points against Bournemouth before being sent off for celebrating with the travelling fans.
City's rivals Manchester United, meanwhile, made it three wins from three by seeing off Leicester thanks to goals from Marcus Rashford and Marouane Fellaini in the evening match.
In the 3pm kick-offs, Newcastle United got off the mark by seeing off struggling West Ham and Crystal Palace's predicament worsened with a home loss against Swansea City.
Chelsea had Spanish duo Cesc Fabregas and Alvaro Morata to thank for seeing them past Everton in one of Sunday's lunchtime contests, with Stoke ending West Brom's 100 per cent start in the other.
Attention then shifted to Anfield, with Liverpool proving far too strong for a disjointed Arsenal side, while Harry Kane saw his August hoodoo extended into another year as Tottenham endured further Wembley frustration.
