Arsenal reignited their Premier League title hopes with a hard-fought 1-0 victory over Chelsea on Sunday.
Mikel Merino’s first-half header proved to be the difference as the Gunners closed the gap on league leaders Liverpool.
Mikel Arteta’s men dominated the first half and could have been three goals up at halftime. However, they settled for a single goal, securing all three points.
With Liverpool absent from league action this weekend due to their Carabao Cup final against Newcastle United, Arsenal took full advantage to reduce the gap to 12 points. Both teams now have nine matches left in the season.
After the international break, Arsenal will face Fulham, while Liverpool prepare for a high-stakes Merseyside Derby against Everton.
