Arsenal Seize Edge in Premier League Title Chase

Arsenal moved six points clear at the top of the Premier League with a commanding 3-0 victory over Fulham, putting pressure on second-placed Manchester City. The Gunners have just three league games remaining, while City hold two games in hand but face little room for error.

Mikel Arteta's side responded emphatically after a difficult fortnight that saw them knocked off top spot for the first time in 209 days. Back-to-back wins over Newcastle and Fulham, either side of a Champions League semi-final draw with Atletico Madrid, have restored momentum. Opta now gives Arsenal a 79.7% chance of winning their first title since 2004.

The victory also extended Arsenal's goal difference advantage over City to four, a crucial margin if the title race goes down to the wire. Arteta praised his team's hunger and dominance, saying, "We showed exactly the kind of team we are."

With a favorable run-in and a resurgent attack, Arsenal appear to have the edge in a thrilling title race.
