Arsenal ran out of steam against Southampton on Sunday as they were held to a surprise 1-1 draw on the south coast.
The Gunners headed into this weekend assured of top spot regardless of how Manchester City fared against Brighton, but the reigning Premier League champions cut the gap at the top to just a solitary point following a comprehensive 3-1 win over the Seagulls on Saturday.
24 hours later, Arsenal seemed to have mustered the perfect response after Granit Xhaka notched his second goal in four days to cap a strong first-half showing - but Southampton rallied after the break and struck back through Stuart Armstrong.
