Inter Milan extended their lead at the top of the Serie A standings with a 2-0 win at Parma on Wednesday, with Federico Dimarco and Marcus Thuram netting the goals to claim all three points in heavy fog at the Stadio Ennio Tardini, Reuters reported. 

Inter moved to 42 points, four ahead of both AC Milan, who host Genoa on Thursday, and Napoli who were held to a 2-2 draw by Hellas Verona earlier on Wednesday. Parma are 15th in the standings on 18 points.

Parma were pinned back into their own half from the off as Inter created early chances, with Francesco Pio Esposito's header failing to trouble Parma keeper Edoardo Corvi, according to Reuters. 

Arsenal's Premier League title prospects were enhanced without them even kicking a ball on Wednesday as their closest challengers Manchester City and Aston Villa both dropped points, Reuters reported. 

Erling Haaland scored his 150th goal for City as he put them in front against Brighton and Hove Albion from the penalty spot but Kaoru Mitoma equalised for the visitors on the hour with the game finishing 1-1.

It was the third successive draw for stuttering City who were held by Sunderland on New Year's Day and by Chelsea at the weekend when they also conceded an equaliser, according to Reuters. 

Manchester United's Benjamin Sesko scored twice as his team kicked off the post‑Ruben Amorim era with a familiar sense of frustration in a 2-2 Premier League draw at lowly Burnley on Wednesday, Reuters reported. 

United, with interim manager Darren Fletcher in charge, would have climbed to fourth in the table with a win but slipped to seventh on 32 points after a third consecutive draw. Burnley are 19th, eight points adrift of safety.

United looked headed for victory before Burnley substitute Jaidon Anthony struck the equaliser against the run of play in the 66th minute, capitalising on lackadaisical defending to launch a blistering shot from the edge of the penalty area, according to Reuters. 

AS Roma got their faltering Serie A title bid back on track with a 2-0 win at Lecce on Tuesday, where Irish striker Evan Ferguson and substitute Artem Dovbyk were on the scoresheet, Reuters reported. 

Roma, who suffered their fourth defeat in six league matches in a 1-0 loss at Atalanta on Saturday, did enough to see off a Lecce side which had held Juventus to a 1-1 draw at the weekend.

"We didn't ‌have much time to prepare the match after the Atalanta defeat, it was mostly video work," player-of-the-match Ferguson told Sky Sport, according to Reuters.
