Kai Havertz inspires Arsenal again, Jarrad Branthwaite stands tall and Manchester City prioritise fresh legs

Thiago Silva’s opener was cancelled out by Jayden Bogle’s equaliser, but it looked like the Blues would come away with maximum points when Noni Madueke put them 2-1 up, only for McBurnie to level at the death.

Impartiality is not a requirement for Sky's big two on testy afternoons between these two bitter rivals.

The result leaves the Reds level on points with Arsenal at the top but the Gunners have a far superior goal difference. And if both teams win all their remaining seven games, the London club would be champions.

The Netherlands centre-back’s coolness under pressure is one of his trademarks but since taking over the captaincy from Jordan Henderson in the summer he has tried to instil that across the squad.

Palmer’s stunning season continued as he took his league tally to 16 goals in their dramatic victory over Manchester United.

The Chelsea boss hopes this is a turning point for his side

Having seen a two goal lead overturned by a Manchester United side seemingly coasting to victory, Pochettino’s side were handed a lifeline in the seventh minute of added time when Diogo Dalot brought down Noni Madueke, allowing Palmer to convert his second penalty of the evening.
