Arsenal 0-2 Aston Villa: Gunners are stunned in title race as Leon Bailey and Ollie Watkins goals give Unai Emery's side deserved victory at the Emirates

Arsenal were left stunned in the Premier League title race as they were beaten 2-0 by Aston Villa at the Emirates.

Goals from Leon Bailey and Ollie Watkins did the damage as Unai Emery's side inflicted a first league defeat of the year on the Gunners.

Arsenal had chances, but Emiliano Martinez was in fine form, although Watkins and Youri Tielemans both struck the woodwork for Villa.

The result means Man City end the Premier League weekend top of the league after Liverpool also lost earlier on Sunday.
