London's Arsenal fought for a hard-fought victory in the Premier League.

At home, the Gunners defeated Burnley 1-0.

The only goal of the match was scored in the 37th minute. After a set piece, the header goal was scored by Kai Havertz.

Later, Havertz again found himself in the thick of things when he committed a rough foul on a Burnley player in the 67th minute. However, after a VAR review, it was decided not to change the card from yellow to red.

Arsenal was unable to secure a more comfortable finish in the remaining time, but they also did not concede a goal.

Tomorrow, Manchester City will face Bournemouth away. If the Citizens do not win, the title will go to the Arsenal team. Otherwise, everything will move to the last day of the season on Sunday.
