The past week has seen the complexion of the top four race turn on its head completely. Both Arsenal and Tottenham have seen their roles reverse as they hunt down Champions League qualification.
The Gunners were arguably in the driving seat, sitting fourth with games in hand over their north London rivals. However, consecutive losses to Crystal Palace and Brighton on their return from international duty have hurt their chances.
What hasn’t helped Mikel Arteta and his side is the momentum and performances on display from Spurs. Antonio Conte has managed to find some rhythm with his side, beating Newcastle 5-1 before a 4-0 win over Aston Villa.
