Manchester City moved into a stronger position in the Premier League title race following results on 12 April. Arsenal lost 2-0 at home to Aston Villa after late goals from Leon Bailey and Ollie Watkins. This result followed a 1-0 defeat for Liverpool against Crystal Palace earlier the same day, according to the Premier League.
Manchester City had previously defeated Luton Town 5-1 on Saturday to move onto 73 points. Pep Guardiola's side now sits two points clear of both Arsenal and Liverpool with six matches remaining in the season, per Sky Sports. Arsenal missed the chance to return to the top of the standings after failing to score at the Emirates Stadium.
The defending champions have not lost a league fixture since December. Manchester City next faces Brighton and Hove Albion, while Arsenal travels to play Wolverhampton Wanderers. Statistics from the Premier League show City now holds the advantage as they seek a fourth consecutive domestic title.
