But the Gunners responded well with a 2-1 win at West Ham which means the north Londoners remain separated by just two points.

With little to separate the two sides it could all come down to the North London derby - which takes place on May 12.

Aaron Ramsdale has impressed in his debut season at the Emirates with Hugo Lloris making a couple of costly errors this season.

Mikel Arteta also added Takehiro Tomiyasu to his squad last summer and the right-back has impressed when fit, forming a good partnership with Bukayo Saka down the right flank.

Granit Xhaka also looks revitalised with Martin Odegaard impressing ahead of him - but the combined XI includes Spurs' January signing Rodrigo Bentancur who has adapted well to the Premier League since arriving from Juventus.

The front three picks itself with Son and Bukayo Saka arguably enjoying their best ever seasons in the Premier League.
