An impressive 3-0 win over Brighton saw Arsenal climb back to the EPL as the race for the title intensified.
A first-half penalty from Bukayo Saka and second-half goals from Kai Havertz and Leandro Trossard were enough to reshuffle things at the top and keep Arterta’s a point ahead of Liverpool in second place, tied on points with Man City who defeated Crystal Palace 4-2 earlier.
Liverpool could take back the top spot if they do not lose to Manchester United on Sunday.
Till then, Arsenal fans are hopeful that their 20 years wait for an EPL trophy could be over this season.
