Cesc Fabregas came off the bench to inspire Arsenal to a 3-0 win over Villa to drag themselves back into the Barclays Premier League title race. The Spaniard, who had been out with a hamstring problem, netted a superb free-kick on 65 minutes and then a fine breakaway goal before being substituted as a precaution, with Abou Diaby scoring a third in stoppage-time. illa - who had already beaten Chelsea, Manchester United and Liverpool this season - looked dangerous on the break but could not make the most of their pressure midway through the second half.

Nota:

Jurang mata kini kian rapat selepas Chelsea hanya mampu seri. Jika MU gagal tewaskan Hull, perebutan kejuaraan akan semakin sengit.
