Summary

Manchester City edge Arsenal at the Etihad to move within three points, with a game in hand. Mikel Arteta tweaked his tactics to be more on the front foot, but is it too little, too late? Pep Guardiola and City, on the other hand, now look to be in the driving seat, with a very real chance of securing another treble. Elsewhere, the race for European football is tighter than ever, with just three points separating 6th and 12th. Who will secure a place in Europe next season? At the bottom, there was late heartbreak for Spurs as Brighton snatched an equaliser in the dying seconds, leaving Tottenham favourites to go down. Serious questions remain about Spurs’ game management at 2–1. What does Roberto De Zerbi need to do to guide them to safety, and does he have enough time?
