Midweek Premier League Matchday 21 did not just serve up routine fixtures; it delivered a festival of battles that cut right across the title race, top‑four chase, and relegation fight. Across England, 90‑minute wars of attrition unfolded under the floodlights, with emotions, tactics, and momentum all colliding in one brutally compressed round. Below is a long‑form, original blog‑style breakdown of the biggest battles of Matchday 21, written so you can publish it as a stand‑alone piece. A Midweek Built for Drama Matchday 21 of the 2025–26 Premier League season dropped between 6 and 8 January, a period when squads are stretched and every point feels heavier than usual.

A looming headline title...
Jamal Musiala, Bayern and Germany's star midfielder, added to his youthful history with a first-half hat trick against Mainz.
Vincent Kompany's side came into the away game at MEWA Arena with a point to prove after failing to advance to the second round of the DFB Pokal in three of the previous four seasons, but Musiala and his teammates had other plans.
The extraordinary talent, who is already regarded by many as Europe's greatest young star, scored three goals in the first half to startle the home team and likely put the game out of reach in just 45 minutes.
Musiala achieved another milestone in his blossoming career, scoring his maiden hat trick.
3 & 50 - In his 174th competitive match for FC Bayern, Jamal Musiala scored his first hat-trick - he has now scored 50 competitive goals for the Bavarian side. Brilliant
In addition, it was his 50th professional goal.
As Musiala continues to secure his place in club history despite his young age, fans will undoubtedly hope that this level of form will continue across all competitions as Bayern look to reclaim the trophies in 2024-25.
