Elsewhere, Arsenal thumped West Ham 5-2, while there were high-scoring wins for the likes of Chelsea, Manchester United, Bournemouth and Brentford.
There were a number of top individual displays across the weekend, meaning it's time to delve into Flashscore's Premier League Team of the Week.
Goalkeeper
Robert Sanchez (Chelsea) 7.4
A clean sheet in Chelsea's comfortable 3-0 win over Aston Villa sees Spanish goalkeeper Robert Sanchez take his place between the sticks.
Sanchez made four stops in the Stamford Bridge encounter including a big save to deny Ollie Watkins.
Defence
Amad Diallo (Manchester United) 8.4
Amad Diallo has been one of a few Manchester United players to have their role tweaked since Ruben Amorim's arrival.
It paid off in United's 4-0 thrashing of Everton as the 22-year-old recorded two assists and won 11 of 14 ground duels.
Nathan Collins (Brentford) 8.1
Nathan Collins emerged as a performer at both ends of the pitch as Brentford dismantled Leicester 4-1.
The Republic of Ireland centre-back won six duels and made five clearances on top of recording an assist from a wonderful pass.
Gabriel Magalhaes (Arsenal) 7.9
Arsenal colossus Gabriel features despite playing just 45 minutes in their 5-2 smashing of West Ham, where he scored the game's opener.
Gabriel - well-known for his threat from set pieces - powered in a header after running in from the back post.
He also won the Gunners a penalty which sent them into a big lead at the halfway point in proceedings.
Pervis Estupinan (Brighton) 8.0
Left-back Pervis Estupinan created a game-high five chances but was unable to push Brighton to victory as they were held to a 1-1 draw at home to Southampton.
The Ecuador international attempted 15 crosses which was the most by some distance and won all three aerial duels contested.
Midfield
Justin Kluivert (Bournemouth) 9.7
Justin Kluivert created history over the weekend by becoming the first player in Premier League history to score a hat-trick of penalties.
The Dutchman, who earned a 9.7 rating, converted all three spot kicks to push Bournemouth over the line in a frantic 4-2 win at Wolves.
Interestingly, Kluivert's hat-trick was largely down to the efforts of teammate Evanilson, who won them all.
Bruno Fernandes (Manchester United) 8.2
Bruno Fernandes showcased his creativity with two assists in United's straightforward win against Everton.
The Portuguese picked out Marcus Rashford with a perfect delivery from a corner then set up the first of Joshua Zirkzee's two goals.
Cole Palmer (Chelsea) 8.4
Production is the norm for Cole Palmer as he added another goal and assist to his tallies for the season against Aston Villa.
Palmer's strike was particularly special as he cut in from the right and bent a beautiful curling effort into the net.
Forwards
Bukayo Saka (Arsenal) 8.8
A goal and two assists ensured it was a solid evening's work for Bukayo Saka as Arsenal took down West Ham.
Saka got things going with a pinpoint corner for Gabriel to score before squaring a ball across for Leandro Trossard to tap home.
He got in on the act himself with a confidently-taken penalty to move up to 15 goal contributions after 12 league games so far.
Marcus Rashford (Manchester United) 8.2
Looking like a new player under Amorim, Marcus Rashford looked sharp after netting twice against Everton.
His first effort took a big deflection off Jarrad Branthwaite and his second early in the second half was drilled under Jordan Pickford.
Kevin Schade (Brentford) 10
A potential breakthrough display, Kevin Schade dealt all the damage with a hat-trick and assist for Brentford against Leicester, earning him a perfect 10 rating.
The 23-year-old German erupted in the first half by setting up the opener before netting twice himself ahead of the break.
Schade completed his treble with another top finish to round off one of the best individual performances the Premier League has seen so far this term.
