Update:

Arsenal’s 1-2 loss at the Emirates Stadium to AFC Bournemouth has blown the Premier League title race wide open, with apex predator Pep Guardiola silently moving into a position to pounce.

Manchester City and Arsenal, it seems, will now go head-to-head in a title race that could well go down to the wire. That’s if Arsenal still manage to keep up the good form they showed earlier in the season.

Premier League: as it stands

At the time of writing, Arsenal have a 9-point lead over Manchester City, who are the only team that can catch them. However, Guardiola’s side have 2 games in hand, one against Crystal Palace and their upcoming league game against Chelsea (Sunday 12 April).

Were City to win both of their games in hand, they would be down to just three points, with Arsenal yet to play at the Etihad Stadium this season in the Premier League.

Were City to win that game against Arteta’s side, only goal difference would separate the sides at the top of the table.

Here’s a look at the run-ins for both teams:
