JAKARTA - Arsenal has won the English League title after Manchester City drew 1-1 at home to Bournemouth.
There are five key matches that Mikel Arteta's side must win in the league title race against Manchester City according to the Press Association.
Tottenham 1-4 Arsenal (22 February 2026)
Losing points in a draw at home to Brentford and then Wolverhampton Wanderers - where they lost a two-goal lead - raised questions about Arsenal's mentality in the title race ahead of the trip to Spurs.
However, Viktor Gyokeres and Eberechi Eze both scored twice as the Gunners thrashed their fierce rivals at home to silence critics and moved five points clear of Manchester City.
Arsenal 2-0 Everton (March 14, 2026)
Arsenal struggled against David Moyes' well-organised Everton side before 11-year-old Max Dowman's introduction in the 74th minute changed the course of the game and the direction of the title race, in favour of the Gunners.
Dowman set up Gyokeres for the opener one minute before the end, before the 16-year-old 73-day-old scored in the final minutes to become the youngest scorer in Premier League history.
Manchester City 2-1 Arsenal (19 April 2026)
Arteta's side head to the Etihad Stadium with just one win in five games. Although they lost again as Rayan Cherki and Erling Haaland scored to snatch the summit from Arsenal for the first time since October 2025, it was not the massacre some may have expected.
Arsenal drew with Manchester City in the first meeting in the league. The performance initially gave them new confidence, but in fact it made them stumble.
As the final whistle blew, Declan Rice told his team-mates that this was not over.
The midfielder proved to be right. The Gunners used the fuel of the defeat from the title contenders as a stepping stone to win the next four games without conceding.
Arsenal 3-0 Fulham (May 2, 2026)
Arsenal have always been nervous at the Emirates Stadium throughout the season, but that nervousness disappeared against Fulham with Gyokeres scoring two goals and Bukayo Saka scoring one.
The home crowd suddenly came back into support. The result put Arsenal six points ahead of Manchester City.
Pep Guardiola's side have two games to play, but eventually drew 3-3 against Everton which allowed Arteta's men to get back on track.
Arsenal 1-0 Burnley (May 18, 2026)
It was not a brilliant performance, but it will be remembered as the game that put the club on the brink of success.
Arsenal's opening goal, as has often been the case in their championship-winning campaign, came from a corner (19 of Arsenal's 69 Premier League goals this season have come from corners) with Havertz's header in the 36th minute.
The victory means Manchester City must beat Bournemouth. After Guardiola's men stumbled on the south coast, Arsenal can celebrate their first title in 22 years.
