Sunday, October 16, 2022 wasn't a bad day for Arsenal fans. The Gunners went four points clear at the top of the Premier League at the 10-game mark as they beat Leeds United 1-0 at Elland Road.
Manchester City lost by the same scoreline at Liverpool just hours later, allowing the Gunners to open a bit of a gap at the division's summit. Tottenham are now level with City on 23 points, with Arsenal top with nine wins from their first 10 games.
Arsenal and City were scheduled to meet this week in what would have been a pulsating encounter and an early title battle, but the game was postponed due to the Gunners' Europa League commitments. City's defeat at Anfield was their first of the season, putting an end to any hopes that they could go the entire campaign unbeaten.
