Week 25 of the English Premier League sees Manchester City close the gap at the top to two points after a stunning win against Arsenal, with Liverpool facing West Ham on Monday night.

When Manchester City lost to Newcastle in midweek, the grim reaper arose from his deep sleep beneath the weeds and took an Uber to The Etihad. Fortunately, for Pep Guardiola’s side, the sickle holder booked a return trip.

Since the turn of the year, City has won eight of nine matches, scoring 34 times and conceding only 4, so it’s safe to say the Newcastle defeat was more of a headache than terminal illness.

When Arsenal came to town, it was clear that the City players had taken their aspirin, as they burst into the lead within the first minute. As against Newcastle in midweek it was Sergio Agüero who scored after getting on the end of an Aymeric Laporte cross, after some dawdling from an Arsenal defender.
