Premier League: Arsenal Edge Burnley To Move Five Points Clear At Top

By IANS News May 19, 2026 • 08:52 AM View: 94

Premier League: Arsenal F.C. moved closer to their first Premier League title in 22 years after a tense 1-0 victory over Burnley F.C. on Monday. Kai Havertz scored the key goal at the Emirates Stadium.

Havertz headed in a corner from Bukayo Saka just before halftime, which settled a hard-fought contest and put Arsenal five points clear at the top of the table with one game left.

However, Manchester City F.C. still has two matches to play and can keep the title race going if they beat AFC Bournemouth on Tuesday. If City does not win, Arsenal will be champions before their final match against Crystal Palace F.C.
