Liverpool get stuck in Luton Town

In a game watched by England manager Fabio Capello, Crouch scored on a breakaway, sliding the ball into an empty net after Luton goalkeeper Dean Brill had blocked a shot from Andriy Voronin.

Luton manager Kevin Blackwell saluted his team for hitting back after conceding a goal.

Eduardo da Silva scored one goal and set up the other, and Arsenal won 2-0 at Burnley.

Eduardo gave the Gunners a ninth-minute lead at Turf Moor against the League Championship club. The Croatian international then set up Nicklas Bendtner to score the second goal in the 75th minute.

Newcastle were held 0-0 at Stoke City and had some scares at the Britannia Stadium. Derby, last in the Premier League, hit back from two goals down at home to Championship club Sheffield Wednesday for a 2-2 draw, and Fulham twice trailed at home to League One Bristol Rovers only to also salvage a 2-2 draw and a replay.
