The Sky Sports digital football writers analyse Sunday's Premier League action as Liverpool and Arsenal drop points in the title race.
Arsenal must respond to Arteta's challengeAston Villa’s win at the Emirates isn’t quite as devastating to Arsenal’s title hopes as Brighton’s victory in north London in May last year but it has the same effect - handing the initiative to Manchester City in the title race. Arsenal’s 2-0 defeat at the hands of Unai Emery, their former manager, means they missed the chance to return to the top of the table, instead handing champions City a two-point lead with six games to play.
Emery's side have big ambitions of their own and are now in a great position to finish in the top four following Tottenham's heavy defeat at Newcastle on Saturday. Paul Merson believes Villa are underrated and he has a point. Having not finished higher than fifth since 1997, Emery took over a side languishing near the bottom of the league in October 2022 and has since led them to within touching distance of Champions League football and a European trophy.
