Arsenal kept up the pressure on Manchester City in the Premier League title race after powering past Bournemouth 3-0 at the Emirates Stadium on Saturday.

In an impressive performance from Mikel Arteta's table-toppers, Arsenal came out on top thanks to goals from Bukayo Saka, Leandro Trossard and Declan Rice that extended their lead at the top of the table to four points.

But second-placed City, who have two games in hand, will get the chance to reduce the points deficit to a single point if they defeat Wolves at the Etihad Stadium later in the day.

As it stands, though, a thoroughly deserved three points for the Gunners means double-hunting City must continue to play catch-up at the top. “I think this year I can sense we’re embracing it,” said England midfielder Rice of the title pressure. “Man City are a machine, we can only focus on us.
