You knew the Premier League title race was going to have another major plot twist or two. The first one came last night, as Manchester City blew a 1-0 second half lead at Everton, to fall behind 3-1. They salvaged a point, in the closing seconds, on Jeremy Doku's equalizer, which made the end result a 3-3 draw.

Arsenal Team News vs Atletico Madrid: Kai Havertz, Martin Odegaard, Jurrien Timber

Arsenal Team News vs Sporting CP: Odegaard, Saka, Calafiori, Timber
It was a very rough weekend for Arsenal, who suffered a hugely disappointing loss to AFC Bournemouth on Saturday. Couple that with Manchester City's thrashing of Chelsea on Sunday, and now, the Premier League title race is once again tightening up.
