Premier League Table & Review After Arsenal 2:0 win to overtake Liverpool in the Title Race And Manchester City trash Aston Villa 4:1 To still remain in the 3rd position.
Arsenal saw out a comfortable 2-0 victory over Luton to take them back to the summit of the Premier League.
Already two goals to the good following a one-sided first half, the Gunners were happy to take things down a notch for much of the second period.
They still had chances though, with Tomiyasu putting a shot wide and Nketiah’s late effort producing a fingertip save from Kaminski.
It was Luton who pressed harder to find the net at the other end, going close through Onyedinma and Hashioka but never really being able to test Raya between the Arsenal sticks.
As a result, the Hatters’ league-leading scoring streak comes to an end, with the defeat leaving them three points adrift of safety in the fight for Premier League survival, while Arsenal march on to go top of the pile, two points ahead of Liverpool with this season’s three-way title fight looking set to go down to the wire.
Not the most spectacular of games tonight, with both sides claiming a point from a 0-0 draw.
That point will be more important to Brentford, looking anxiously over their shoulder at their relegation rivals, than to Brighton, who really should have done better given their dominance.
Brentford looked tired throughout, probably thanks to their exertions at the weekend, although they did well to frustrate the Seagulls’ attack.
Brighton controlled much of the game, only occasionally looking vulnerable on the break, having 67 per cent possession and the stronger xG of 1.11 to the Bees’ 0.50. Injury time in both halves provided the game’s main talking points.
