Second-placed Arsenal will have to watch out if they don't want one or two competitors to catch up before the Premier League is over.

Against Bournemouth, it started well when Declan Rice, nicely played through by Martin Ødegaard, shot 1–0 in the 34th minute.

The ending was not as pleasant.

Dean Huijsen nodded in 1–1 after a long throw-in and Evanilson prodded in the visitors' winning goal after a corner, with a quarter left.

Arsenal are still second in the table with three matches left to play. But the schedule is not the easiest, with already crowned Premier League champions Liverpool (away) and Alexander Isaks Newcastle (home) next in line.

Before that, Arsenal will try to turn the Champions League semi-final around against PSG on Wednesday. The French won the meeting in London 1–0.
