EPL: Arsenal return to top after 3-1 win over Chelsea

Date:

Arsenal moved back to the top of the Premier League with a 3-1 win over Chelsea on Tuesday night.

The Gunners had lost their place at the summit after Manchester City defeated them 4-1 at the Etihad, before winning 2-1 at Fulham on Sunday.

However, Mikel Arteta’s men took control of the game, with Martin Odegaard scoring twice in the first half.

Gabriel Jesus then got on the scoresheet, slamming the ball home following a mix-up in Chelsea’s defence.

Noni Madueke pulled one back for the visitors, but it was merely a consolation at the end of the day.

Arsenal have now accumulated 78 points after 34 matches, two more than City who have two outstanding fixtures to play.
