EPL: Arsenal maintains lead as City fall behind in chase

Arsenal have once again sent a clear message as a serious title contender after securing a 4-2 win over Brighton Hove and Albion on Saturday

Goals from Bukayo Saka, Martin Odegaard Eddie Nketiah and Gabriel Martinelli were all the Gunners needed to saw off their hosts who also show course on spoiling the party for Arteta Boys with two goals scored.

Such was another commanding attitude from Arsenal,who had earlier seen the scoreline of the game between Manchester City and Everton ending a 1-1 draw.

Erling Haaland’s effort in the first half was cancelled by Gray’s stunner in the 64th minute.

The result of the game would eventually seal off a seven points lead for gunners who will now welcome Newcastle on January 3.

With 43 points, Arsenal sits top of the table and are followed by the Citizens
