London - Cash-strapped Portsmouth earned their first points of the Premier League season with a fine 1-0 win at Wolverhampton Wanderers on Saturday. Hassan Yebda headed the only goal of the game after 19 minutes and Paul Hart's men hung on for a crucial win, with goalkeeper David James making several superb saves.
The result was not quite enough to lift them off the bottom of the table though as they remain one point behind West Ham United, who take on Fulham on Sunday.
Tottenham Hotspur moved above Liverpool into third place after a hard-fought 2-2 draw at Bolton Wanderers, twice coming from behind to secure a point.
Ricardo Gardner (4) and Kevin Davies (69) each put Bolton ahead but Nico Kranjcar (34) and Vedran Corluka (73) salvaged a point for the London side.
The draw was enough to put Harry Redknapp's team one point ahead of Liverpool, who play at second-placed Chelsea on Sunday.
Later on Saturday, champions Manchester United can go three points clear of Chelsea at the top if they beat Sunderland at Old Trafford.
In Saturday's other games, Burnley made it four home wins out of four with a 2-1 victory over Birmingham thanks to goals from Steven Fletcher and Andre Bikey. Sebastian Larsson got a late consolation effort for Birmingham.
Hull moved out of the bottom three after a 2-1 win over Wigan Athletic with Jan Vennegoor of Hesselink and Geovanni scoring the goals for the home side.
