Chelsea secured a vital 1-0 victory over Liverpool at Stamford Bridge, bolstering their prospects for a coveted top-four finish. Simultaneously, at the Emirates Stadium, Arsenal orchestrated a 5-0 dismantling of Burnley in a fitting farewell to their iconic manager, Arsene Wenger.
Chelsea’s triumph saw Oliver Giroud’s clinical header, courtesy of a precise assist from Victor Moses in the 32nd minute, securing a decisive win.

The victory propelled Chelsea to 69 points, positioning them tantalizingly within three points of third-placed Liverpool.
The Blues dominated the pitch, with Antonio Rudiger’s goal in the 57th minute narrowly denied due to an offside ruling. Despite Liverpool’s relentless pursuit of an equalizer, Chelsea’s steadfast defense held firm, marking the Reds’ third defeat in their last 27 EPL outings.
Meanwhile, at the Emirates, Alex Iwobi broke his nine-game goal drought in the EPL, orchestrating Arsenal’s scintillating 5-0 victory over Burnley. Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and Alexandre Lacazette set the stage with goals in the 14th and 45th minutes, respectively. Sead Kolasinac and Iwobi further solidified the Gunners’ dominance, propelling them six points clear of Burnley.
In a poignant moment, Iwobi’s 64th-minute goal, a powerful shot into the roof of the net, provided the exclamation point on Wenger’s final game in charge at the Emirates Stadium. The win encapsulated Wenger’s legacy and Arsenal’s commitment to bidding adieu to an era with an awe-inspiring display of football artistry.
