Arsenal stretch Premier League lead as Chelsea, Liverpool stage comebacks

Liverpool were also forced to come from behind to secure their first league win of the year as Hugo Ekitike and Florian Wirtz shone in a 4-1 win over Newcastle. The Gunners' advantage over Manchester City and Aston Villa at the top of the table stretches to seven points as Mikel Arteta's men took another step towards the title at Elland Road. A first home defeat of the season last weekend to Manchester United capped a run of just two points from a possible nine in Arsenal's previous three league games.
