Arsenal given huge Erling Haaland injury update as Man City star visits hospital amid title race

The Premier League title race looks set to go to the wire this season as Arsenal and Manchester City battle it out to lift the trophy in late May. The Gunners currently lead the division by eight points, though they have played one game more than City heading into the final stint.

It appears as though fine margins will once again decide whether the title will be draped in red or sky blue though, similar to previous seasons. Arsenal's latest flurry of late wins has helped propel them to the summit, while injury returns could play a huge factor in the final few weeks.

"I want to think positively. Touch wood, but I want to think positive," Mikel Arteta said on the international break and his players being away with their nations. "They’re going to have to play games, they have to do it in the way that they do it here or possibly even better with their country. We are in contact with all of them, they know how to look after them and hopefully it will all work out."
