Champions Manchester City made the trip to Chelsea on Saturday evening with a five-point gap separating themselves and their league-leading hosts.
Yet, following the 90 minutes at Stamford Bridge, the deficit remains the same as the two sides played out a 1-1 draw.
Meanwhile, Manchester United are up to third as a result of their 3-1 win over Leicester City and Southampton's 1-0 defeat at the hands of Swansea City at St Mary's Stadium.
There were comprehensive victories for the Premier League's North London duo, while Liverpool also kept pace with the top four thanks to a 2-0 triumph at the expense of West Ham United.
Towards the bottom, Sunderland prevailed 2-0 from their home encounter with Burnley, while Everton won 1-0 away at Crystal Palace.
The poor form of Hull City and Queens Park Rangers also continued, with defeats being inflicted by Newcastle United and Stoke City respectively.
Here, Sports Mole has looked back over all 10 encounters to select the 11 most impressive players.
Hugo Lloris (Tottenham Hotspur)
Spurs may have won handsomely at The Hawthorns, but they owe a big thanks to their goalkeeper. The Frenchman was in inspired form, making a host of saves on his way to keeping a clean sheet.
Patrick van Aanholt (Sunderland)
The left-back played a key role in helping Sunderland to record a rare home victory. He got forward well and ended up assisting Jermain Defoe's first goal for the club.
Kurt Zouma (Chelsea)
Having struggled against Liverpool in the League Cup, the youngster responded brilliantly with a solid showing up against Sergio Aguero.
Phil Jagielka (Everton)
Clean sheets have been hard to come by for Everton this season, but Jagielka ensured that they would record one at Selhurst Park with a fantastic clearance to deny Dwight Gayle a certain goal.
Hector Bellerin (Arsenal)
The young Spaniard is starting to make the right-back spot his own at the Emirates Stadium. Another impressive display was rounded off by his first goal for the club.
Remy Cabella (Newcastle United)
It's not always been a smooth ride for Cabella since he arrived in England, but he showed his talent away at Hull. His goal was just reward for a creative showing.
Daley Blind (Manchester United)
Playing at the base of United's midfield diamond, Blind produced the perfect performance from a holding midfielder. He made numerous interceptions, as well as setting up his side's opening goal.
Philippe Coutinho (Liverpool)
Goals may still be hard to come by for the diminutive Brazilian, yet he still laid on both goals for the Reds, including the one that saw Daniel Sturridge get off to the perfect start following his lengthy injury layoff.
Mesut Ozil (Arsenal)
Back in the starting lineup after injury, it seemed that Ozil had never been away. His clever flick sent Olivier Giroud away for the opener, before he got himself on the scoresheet.
Jonathan Walters (Stoke City)
It was the perfect hat-trick for Walters, who almost single-handedly destroyed QPR as he found the net with his left foot, his right foot and his head.
Harry Kane (Tottenham Hotspur)
Two more goals for Kane as he took his tally for the campaign to 20. His first was a fantastic finish from just inside the area, while his second of the contest came from the penalty spot.
Numpty of the week
Ahmed Elmohamady: The Hull winger did his best Diego Maradona impression against Newcastle. However, unlike the Argentine legend, Elmohamady didn't get away with it. Not only did he punch the ball into the net, he ran off to celebrate his goal as if it was legitimate. Then, when it was ruled out, he had the temerity to question the referee's decision. The Egyptian can count himself lucky that he wasn't red carded.
Goal of the week
Loic Remy - (Chelsea) vs. Manchester City: There was some decent goals scored this weekend, but we've gone for a team effort. A neat counter-attack from Chelsea saw Branislav Ivanovic pick out Eden Hazard at the far post with a pinpoint chipped pass. Rather than control the ball, the Belgian volleyed it instantly across the face of goal for a waiting Remy, who was never going to miss from a couple of yards out.
