Arsenal's next five Premier League fixtures compared to Man City as title race takes major twist

Arsenal suffered another major hit in their Premier League title battle with Manchester City as the Gunners let a two-goal lead slip against West Ham. Seven days on from dropping two points in a major Anfield clash with Liverpool, Mikel Arteta's men looked to be back at their very best when Martin Odegaard and Gabriel Jesus put the visitors two goals in front after just ten minutes at London Stadium.

However, it was deja vu for the league leaders as another away game ended in a stalemate. A penalty just before half time from Said Benrahma brought West Ham back into the clash, but their second half comeback looked set to take a hit as Arsenal were awarded a penalty for a handball by Michail Antonio.

Bukayo Saka stepped up but fired his spot kick wide off the target, with Jarrod Bowen going on to equalise less than two minutes later. Heading into the final few weeks of the season, the Gunners are four points above title rivals Man City, although the reigning champions have a game in hand and the Etihad Stadium clash is fast approaching.
