    That was very tense to watch from Arsenal, but managed to get over the line when not at their very best...a sign of champions elect. Bring on Villa at the weekend will be a tough game! they are very much in form!

    The tackle that Gomez just made... He is lucky not to get a red for that. Terrible challenge.

    The ball drops to Mohamed Salah on the edge of the box but his effort is blocked.

  10. FT: Wolves 0-1 Nott'm Forest

    Rob Edwards heads over to applaud the fans. He puffs out his cheeks and shakes his head.

    Fair play to him for doing that, but he knows this simply isn't good enough.

  11. DISALLOWED GOAL

    Leeds 2-1 Chelsea

    Lukas Nmecha has the ball in the back of the net for Leeds but the flag goes up. There was an offside earlier in the move before some flapping and Nmecha smashing a ball home.

  12. CLOSE!

    Brighton 3-4 Aston Villa

    Oh. My. Word.

    An outstanding save by Villa's No 2 keeper Marco Bizot to deny Danny Welbeck deep into time added on.

    This game has delivered time and time again.

  13. YELLOW CARD

    Liverpool 0-0 Sunderland

    Liverpool defender Joe Gomez mistimes his tackle on Reinildo and is shown a yellow card.

  14. 'Business-like from Arsenal'

    FT: Arsenal 2-0 Brentford

    Alan Smith
    Former Arsenal forward on Sky Sports

    One of those games where if you do win the title at the end of the season you look back on as a standard win where you weren't troubled and there weren't too many theatrics and fireworks, but we got the job done.

    Business-like from Arsenal.

  15. Leeds 2-1 Chelsea

    Pedro Neto has scored five goals in the Premier League this season, equalling his best tally in a single campaign in the English top-flight (5 in 2020-21 for Wolves).

  16. FULL-TIME

    Wolves 0-1 Nott'm Forest

    A big away win for Nottingham Forest.

    An eighth straight defeat for Wolves. Where do they go from here.

  17. Brighton 3-4 Aston Villa

    1-0, 2-0, 2-1, 2-2, 2-3, 2-4, 3-4.

    Deep into stoppage time. Will Brighton find a last-gasp equaliser?

  18. A lifeline for Chelsea

    Leeds 2-1 Chelsea

    Nizaar Kinsella
    BBC Sport Chelsea reporter

    Chelsea needed that lifeline goal from Pedro Neto which again exposed the fragility of this Leeds team.

    Leeds had looked more likely at scoring just after half-time and created two good chances for strikers Lukas Nmecha and Dominic Calvert-Lewin.

    But Chelsea have a chance that has lifted them as Liam Delap runs through on goal moments later.

    Manager Enzo Maresca is looking relieved rather than pleased with how things are going now.

  19. Leeds 2-1 Chelsea

    Chelsea have a chance to equalise now but Liam Delap slams his shot into the side-netting. Leeds will be so desperate to not concede a quickfire second.

  20. FULL-TIME

    Burnley 0-1 Crystal Palace

    Burnley pushed hard at the end there but Crystal Palace dug in for a big three points on the road.
