We’ll fight to the end, says Odegaard

Arsenal will battle until the end for the Premier League title, their captain Martin Odegaard said on Tuesday after scoring twice in a 3-1 defeat of Chelsea that put the north London side back on top of the table for 24 hours at least.

The manner of Arsenal's home win on Tuesday could sow some seeds of doubt into the heads of Pep Guardiola's City players and Odegaard remains confident the title race is not over.

"Especially the first half was brilliant. We came out and showed a different spirit to last time," the Norwegian, who produced two superb first-half finishes to take his league tally to 14 for the season, told Sky Sports. "We have to fight and keep going. We believe and will fight until the end."

Arsenal face third-placed Newcastle United away in their next league game, by which time they could be four points adrift if City beat West Ham and Leeds United at home.
