Manchester United had a nine-point lead over Arsene Wenger’s side, with just 11 games remaining, but still watched as the Gunners stormed past them into first.

Conversely, the next biggest gap that was closed in league history was by the Red Devils when they closed a seven-point lead on Newcastle in 1995-96. Following on from that, Mikel Arteta’s side also feature in the list for biggest gaps closed in league history after 27 games following their 2022-23 campaign.

The Gunners had lead by five points ahead of rivals Man City however watched on as Pep Guardiola’s side sealed a title win and a historic Treble.

Finally, Liverpool’s lead last season also features on the list after seeing a four point gap closed by Man City – before the Reds eventually finished third.

However, this year, with their 13-point lead over Arteta’s Arsenal, the Reds will be confident that they can clinch a historic 20th league title.

Following the midweek results, the Gunners are now closer to 10th placed Aston Villa than they are to the league leaders.

Should the current point gap be maintained for the rest of the season, then Liverpool could win the title at home to Tottenham on April 26.

Arsenal fans recently voiced their concerns that they might have to watch their side provide the Reds with a guard of honour when they clash later in the season.

Mikel Arteta’s side will travel to Anfield on May 10th, where there will be just three matches remaining in the season.
