The battle for the Premier League title will go to the last game of the season after Arsenal won 1-0 at Manchester United on Sunday afternoon.

The win leaves Arsenal a point ahead of Manchester City at the top of the table with three-goal advantage in goal difference. But Manchester City have two games to play, which means City almost certainly need to win their last two games of the season away to Tottenham and at home to West Ham to assure the title, if Arsenal win their only remaining match, which is at home to Everton.

Arsenal's win came thanks to a 20th minute goal from Leandro Trossard, who finished a low cross from Kai Havertz following poor defending from Casemiro and Aaron Wan-Bissaka.

Manchester United worked hard to find an equalizer in the closing stages of the game, but failed.

City had returned to the top of the Premier League for 24 hours with a 4-0 win away to Fulham on Saturday.

Josko Gvardiol slid City ahead after 13 minutes and Phil Foden doubled their lead before the hour. An error from Bernd Leno gifted Gvardiol his second of the match shortly and Julian Alvarez made it 4-0 with a penalty.

Goals from Pedro Porro and Micky van de Ven gave Tottenham a 2-1 win over Burnley who were relegated to the Championship.

Jacob Bruun Larsen had put Burnley ahead after 25 minutes, but Porro fired home seven minutes later as Tottenham keep their top-four hopes alive, as long as Aston Villa don't beat Liverpool (who can no longer win the title) on Monday.

Luton Town will be joining Sheffield United and Burnley in the Championship after a 3-1 defeat away to West Ham, who claimed the points with second half goals from James Ward-Prowse, Tomas Soucek and George Earthy, after Albert Sambi's early opener for Luton.

Luton could still finish level on points with Nottingham Forest, but their vastly inferior goal difference means they need a miracle to stay up.

Forest lost 3-2 at home to Chelsea, who have a chance of a top-six finish.

Chelsea are level with Newcastle United, who could only draw 1-1 at home to Brighton, with Sean Longstaff's goal on the stroke of halftime leveling after Joel Veltman had put Brighton ahead from an 18th minute corner.

The sting was in the tail of the game between Bournemouth and Brentford, with all three goals coming in the last 10 minutes.

Bryan Mbeumo put Brentford ahead in the 86th minute, and although Dominik Solanke equalized in the last minute of normal time, Yoane Wissa scored a 95th minute for Brentford from a narrow angle.

Abdoulaye Doucoure's first half goal saw Everton to a 1-0 home win over already-relegated Sheffield United, while Crystal Palace's form continues under Oliver Glasner as goals from Michael Olise, Jean-Philippe Mateta and Eberechi Eze helped them win 3-1 at Wolverhampton Wanderers, whose goal came from Matheus Cunha.
