Liverpool are 13 points clear of Arsenal with 10 matches left to play. Nobody has ever lost the title from a position of such strength so late into a season. Only once has a team overturned a 13-point deficit. That team was Arsenal in 1997/98, but they started to cut the lead in December, not in February.

Arsenal and Nottingham Forest played out an entertaining draw at the City Ground in their top of the table Premier League clash. Both teams were hoping to secure three points, Arsenal to close the gap on Liverpool, Forest to remain on target for a top four finish but they came away with a point each.
