Overview
- Arsenal, which won 3-0 on Saturday at the Emirates, opened a six-point lead with City holding two games in hand starting Monday at Everton.
- All three goals arrived before the break as Viktor Gyokeres struck twice and Bukayo Saka finished one from the striker's pass.
- Saka made his first start since March after an Achilles issue and left at half-time as staff managed his return.
- Mikel Arteta made five changes and used the cushion to rest Gyokeres and Declan Rice with the Atletico Madrid second leg after a 1-1 first game.
- Riccardo Calafiori saw one effort ruled offside and later hit the crossbar, and Arsenal's four-goal edge on goal difference could prove decisive if points finish level.
