Arsenal have strengthened their grip on the Premier League title race after grinding out a victory against Hull City, according to Channels Television. The narrow result allows the London club to extend their advantage at the top of the table.
The outcome comes as a major boost for the league leaders on a weekend when their close rivals stumbled. Tottenham Hotspur dropped crucial points following a defeat against Leeds United, handing Arsenal even more breathing space in the standings.
Alongside the victory, discussions have emerged over the defensive selection within the squad. Ezri Konsa's recent performances have raised questions over whether William Saliba will easily regain his starting spot to partner Gabriel Magalhaes in the central defence, according to Sky Sports.
Arsenal will now turn their focus to maintaining this momentum as they aim to keep their distance ahead of the chasing pack in the English top flight.
