In a dramatic turn of events, Arsenal has recaptured the lead in the Premier League title race. The Gunners thrashed Chelsea 5-0, their most significant victory in Premier League history, and followed it with a convincing 2-0 triumph at Wolves. This impressive response came after their home defeat to Aston Villa.
Liverpool’s title aspirations, on the other hand, have been dealt a significant blow. The Reds suffered a home loss to Crystal Palace and a shocking Europa League exit, leaving their season hanging in the balance. While Jurgen Klopp’s changes resulted in a 3-1 triumph over Fulham, their hopes were extinguished in a damaging 2-0 Merseyside derby defeat at Everton.
Manchester City, the reigning champions, remains in contention with two games in hand. A potential victory at Brighton on Thursday would elevate them above Liverpool and within reach of Arsenal.
