Arsenal’s last-gasp victory against Leicester City has seen them installed as the new favourites to win the 2024/25 Premier League title, with Manchester City’s earlier slip up also factored into the matter.
Mikel Arteta ‘s face lit up on the stroke of half-time this afternoon as Leandro Trossard added a cushion to a lead established minutes prior by Gabriel Martinelli. He had arrived into today’s match against Foxes in the knowledge that Pep Guardiola was unable to see Man City over the line at against Newcastle United, dropping two valuable points at St. James Park.
However he was soon facing the prospect of his own side dropping points from a winning position yet again, as a James Justin brace stunned the Emirates Stadium to set up a nervy closing half-hour or so. In the end, Arsenal’s prowess shone brightest to force a Wilfred Ndidi own goal and net another through Kai Havertz to win 4-2.
