All eyes were on Arsenal to see how they would react after they were knocked off top spot by Manchester City in February.
With just under two months of the Premier League season still to play, the title race between Manchester City and Arsenal is very much in the balance.
For Manchester City, the most important goal against Liverpool on Saturday was arguably Julian Alvarez’s equaliser in the 27th minute. Despite the simplicity of the finish, the build-up to the Argentine’s tap-in was textbook City and gave the Blues something to build upon in the second half.
When Arsenal's pursuit of Mykhailo Mudryk was hijacked by Chelsea in January, the Premier League leaders were forced to move to Plan B but their quick pivot to sign Leandro Trossard has reaped rich dividends in a high-pressure title race.
Manchester City's players are ready to rise to manager Pep Guardiola's challenge to win every single remaining game in the Premier League in order to have a chance of catching leaders Arsenal.
Danny Murphy believes the time spent working with Pep Guardiola will provide Mikel Arteta with the experience to manage a title-run in at Arsenal.
Thomas Tuchel’s reign as Bayern Munich manager got off to the perfect start as they inflicted a heavy 4-2 defeat on league leaders Borussia Dortmund in Der Klassiker. The Bavarians scored three times in 10 first-half minutes – with Thomas Muller grabbing a brace — as they sent out a statement to their title rivals. Ad Kingsley Coman scored the fourth in the second half but Gregor Kobel's own goal has set the ball rolling, with Bayern leapfrogging Edin Terzic’s side in the Bundesliga table by two points.
Pep Guardiola is convinced Arsenal’s eight-point advantage in the title race counts for far more than Manchester City’s past experience of winning the Premier League.
