Arsenal receive huge fitness boost ahead of Premier League title run-in with Man City

Arsenal striker Gabriel Jesus returned to full training on Wednesday in a huge boost to his side's title battle with Manchester City.

This season's Premier League title race looks set to be a two-horse race between City and the Gunners, following Manchester United's 7-0 humbling at Liverpool which left them 14 points off the top with 13 games left. Pep Guardiola's side made it four wins and a draw in their last five with Saturday's win over Newcastle United, initially closing the gap on their rivals to two points.

And that gap looked likely to remain tight going into Sunday, with Arsenal 2-0 down at home to Bournemouth by the hour mark, before three goals including a 97th-minute winner handed the North London side a dramatic victory and a huge psychological boost.
