English League: Arsenal wins and leads while awaiting City

Correio da Manhã12 September 2026 at 22:03

Arsenal beat Sunderland away and took the lead of the English League, remaining at the top of the table while awaiting Manchester City's game. The London side secured the three important points on this trip, reinforcing their position in the championship.

This round was marked by Chelsea and Liverpool's draws, which benefited Arsenal in the title race. Both big clubs failed to win their respective matches.

With this result, Arsène Wenger's men took advantage of the less successful performances of their main rivals to consolidate first place in the Premier League.

City, who still have to play, appear as one of the main pursuers in the table, with Arsenal fans closely following the unfolding of this round of the English league.

Why this matters

Football fans in Portugal and the region closely follow the English league, one of the most watched globally. This result is relevant because it places Arsenal in provisional leadership, creating expectation about whether Manchester City will manage to recover ground in the title race. The round with draws from Chelsea and Liverpool increases the competitiveness of the dispute.
