Two of the weekend matches that had significant importance were the games Arsenal versus Chelsea and Burnley versus Leicester. The former, a top of the table clash, and the latter, a relegation battle.
The mathematics is simple. Win for Arsenal and they will reel in the Blues' ten point lead. Burnley and Leicester need as much points as they can gather to escape the dreaded drop. As for Chelsea, they can lose yet retain their healthy lead.
As expected, Chelsea parked their bus at the Emirates Stadium, or in Mourinho's word, played a game that belongs to the 19th century. They got a draw and retain their ten points lead over Arsenal and Manchester City.
Two more victories is what they need to bring the league title back to the bridge.
Over at Turf Moor, Leicester won their game and moved out of the relegation zone. As for Burnley's fate, it is out of their hands. They can only win as many games as they can and hope the others will falter.
