Arsenal’s hopes of winning the Premier League title were dealt a major blow this weekend thanks to their result and matches elsewhere.
The Gunners were beaten 1-0 by West Ham on Saturday as they missed out on the chance to close the gap on leaders Liverpool this weekend. That was followed by the Merseyside club claiming a 2-0 win against reigning champions Manchester City 24 hours later.
Mikel Arteta’s side are now 11 points behind Liverpool with a game in hand as the Premier League title race continues. Arsenal will now prepare for a midweek of top-flight football against Nottingham Forest as they try to close the gap on the league leaders once again in the race for the title.
