Kai Havertz scored the only goal of the match in the 37th minute, heading in from a Bukayo Saka corner to give Mikel Arteta's side a crucial lead

Arsenal controlled much of the first half, creating several chances, with Leandro Trossard striking the post and Martin Odegaard seeing an effort deflected wide

In the second half, Arsenal continued to push forward, with Eberechi Eze coming close as his volley crashed off the crossbar

The closing stages were tense, with seven minutes of stoppage time adding to the nerves around the stadium. However, Arsenal maintained their shape and saw out the result to secure three vital points.

The win puts Arsenal within touching distance of the Premier League title. They now need a win in the clash against Crystal Palace on Sunday to be crowned champions
