It's advantage Arsenal in the Premier League title race after a dream weekend for the Gunners. Mikel Arteta's side romped to a dominant 4-0 win away to Leeds on Saturday, putting the pressure back on challengers Manchester City and Aston Villa.
First to respond on Sunday was Villa, who suffered a shock 1-0 defeat at home to Brentford. City then had the chance to go three points above Villa and within four of Arsenal, but they slipped up themselves with a 2-2 draw away to Tottenham, despite leading by two goals at half-time.
Those results mean that Arsenal's lead at the summit is now six points with 14 games to go. City boss Pep Guardiola believes that his team can bounce back, telling Sky Sports: "We are playing at a high level.
"We didn't have the consistency to win the games when others were able to do it, 14 games it a lot of games. Six points (the gap to Arsenal). Next one."

City forward Antoine Semenyo added: "We've got more games, there are 14 games to go. We are six points behind, it's not the end. We have to keep going. Anything can happen. 14 games to go, they might lose a couple of games and we might win. The dynamic changes and we have to see what happens."
At Villa Park, manager Unai Emery was left furious after VAR ruled out what would've been an equaliser from Tammy Abraham. "We are frustrated, disappointed, as well with the referee and VAR for his decision," Emery said. "But maybe sometimes we can win matches like that."
