Arsenal maintained their pursuit of a first Premier League title for 20 years as they moved top of the table with an impressive away victory over Brighton.
Mikel Arteta's side edged one point ahead of title rivals Liverpool, who face Manchester United at Old Trafford on Sunday, and Manchester City after the reigning champions
It was the in-form Kai Havertz who gave the Gunners breathing space, slotting in from Jorginho's cut-back to settle nerves among the travelling Arsenal support after the hour mark. With seven games to go this time, there remains no sign of Arteta's side falling away as they seek redemption in a fascinating three-team title race.
Though his team-mates won without him in midweek, Saka displayed his vital importance to Arsenal's title ambitions, with the Gunners heavily favouring attacks down the right. The 22-year-old England international now has 30 goal involvements in 39 appearances this season. Havertz is also hitting form at the perfect time for the Gunners, now with nine goal involvements - including five goals - in the past seven league games.
