LONDON, Nov. 24 (Xinhua) -- Manchester United fought back from one goal down to beat Queens Park Rangers 3-1 in front of their new manager Harry Redknapp on Saturday while Arsenal were held to a goalless draw by hosts Aston Villa.

West Bromwich Albion's remarkable winning run continued with an impressive 4-2 victory over Sunderland at the Stadium of Light. The Baggies climbed to the third place on the English Premier League standings.

QPR, led by sacked manager Mark Hughes's former coaches Mark Bowen and Eddie Niedzwiecki, went ahead in the 52nd minute through Jamie Mackie pounced from close range.

But three goals in eight minutes saved the Red Devils and earned them three points to put them on top of the standings.

Jonny Evans levelled the scoring and Darren Fletcher, on his first league start for over a year, made it 2-0. Substitute Javier Hernandez scored the third to kill off the match.

Newly appointed QPR manager Redknapp watched the game at Old Trafford on the stand. His team still stay bottom of the table as they remain without a victory from a total of 13 matches this season.

In the other matches, Norwich extended their unbeaten run to six games by holding Everton to a 1-1 draw. Stoke City edge Fulham 1-0 and Wigan defeated Reading 3-2.
