    Advantage Arsenal in football's Premier League - after one of their closest rivals dropped points for a third straight game


    Manchester City have been held to a 1-all draw at home by Brighton.

    Arsenal can now push eight points clear of City, and Aston Villa, at the top of the table - should they beat Liverpool tomorrow at the Emirates.

    Elsewhere Fulham have beaten Chelsea 2-1, while Bournemouth have scored an injury time winner to edge Tottenham 3-2.

    There's been plenty of action in the second half at Turf Moor ... Manchester United scored twice in 10 minutes to lead Burnley 2-1.

    The hosts have equalised however, it's 2-2 with around five minutes of regulation time remaining.
