A key battle in the 37th round of the English Premier League ended not long ago, and Arsenal defeated Manchester United 1-0 away from home, winning five consecutive league victories, and temporarily overtaking Manchester City in the rankings to the top of the standings. Although they are back at the top of the table, the initiative to win the league title is still not in the hands of Arsenal, and if they want to win the title, they must expect an assist from their rival Tottenham!

Manchester City thrashed Fulham 4-0 earlier in the round to move up to the top of the table. Arsenal, who then played, must beat Manchester United in this round if they want to keep their hopes of winning the title, but in the last three visits to Old Trafford, Arsenal have lost all of them, and it is still a big unknown whether they can successfully win all three points. However, Arsenal also received a piece of good news before the game, with almost all of United's starting line-up out due to injury, and the Red Devils had to send a remnant squad to face the Gunners.

Although nearly half of the team is on the bench, Manchester United still took advantage of the home advantage and took the initiative in the game. However, it was Arsenal who scored first. In the 20th minute, Havertz burst into the box after receiving a ball from a team-mate on the wing, and after observing his team-mate's movement, he calmly distributed the ball to Leandro Trossard who followed up in the middle, who easily pushed the ball into the net to help Arsenal take a 1-0 lead!

Manchester United, who were behind the scoreline, launched a frantic counterattack after that, but in the face of Arsenal's voluntary retreat, they also seemed to have little to do. If it weren't for goalkeeper Onana's outstanding performance and successive key saves, the suspense of the game might have been killed early on. Manchester United, who eventually failed to find the back of the net, lost 1-0 to Arsenal and their hopes of qualifying for Europe were slim.

After winning this game, Arsenal beat Manchester City by one point and returned to the top of the table. However, because the Blue Moon Army has one less game, the initiative to win the championship is actually still in the hands of Manchester City. Manchester City face Tottenham Hotspur in midweek, and Arsenal will have to rely on their arch-rivals Tottenham to help them win the title. As long as they can draw at home to Manchester City, then Arsenal can rely on a three-goal difference advantage to continue to lead the table. In the final round, as long as Arsenal can beat Everton at home, the Gunners, who have 89 points, are likely to lift the Premier League trophy again after 20 years.

But the premise of all this is that Tottenham Hotspur must hold back Manchester City's progress at home, and I wonder if the north London rivals, who have been looking at Arsenal's unpleasantness, will send assists to the Gunners?
