A Leandro Trossard puts on either side of the Arsenal Canter break to a dominant 4-0 win over 10-man Ipswich Town in Portman Road on Sunday.
In addition, the Gunners delayed Liverpool's title celebrations until next week after accelerating the benefit of the leaders to 10 points.
Trossard brought the Gunners ahead early and let the ball slide past Alex Palmer, while the smart backheel of Mikel Merino Gabriel Martinelli set to extend their lead just before half an hour.
The day of Ipswich went from bad to worse shortly thereafter when Leif Davis was sent away for a late challenge on Bukayo Saka, leaving the hosts with a mountain behind to climb.
Saka then saw a flurry of excellent opportunities begging at the end of the first half, including a sublime curly effort from the right wing.
The tractor boys showed little spark than a few enthusiastic runs from Julio Enciso and George Hirst while they sink to their seventh straight house Premier League loss of the year – corresponding to their combined total of 2023 and 2024.
Trossard declined a very one -sided affair with a nice finish in the 69th minute, while the heavily deflected strike by Ethan Nwaneri from Dara O'Shea lets a helpless Palmer rolled.
It is a result that Ipswich 18th, 15 points on drift of safety leaves with five more games that can be played.

Data Debrief: Portman Road Pain from Ipswich Town
The city of Ipswich has now lost all seven of their Premier League matches this year, similar to their longest home losing treak ever, completed between September and November 1963.
The loss for Arsenal was their 20th defeat of the season and marked the third time in six seasons that they lost 20+ matches in the competition (also 29 in 1994-95 and 20 in 2001-02).
Among teams that occur in five or more Premier League campaigns, only Watford (5/8, 63%), Hull City (3/5, 60%) and QPR (4/7, 57%) would lose 20 games in a higher percentage of their campaigns than the tractor boys.
It was indeed a non -inspiring version of the side of Kieran McKenna, who failed to collect a shot on goal about the game, ending with a meager expected goals (XG) value of only 0.21. In the meantime, Arsenal performed their XG of 2.72 pretty impressive.
Martinelli, who scored their second, noted his 50th goal for Arsenal in all matches.
This makes him the fourth-Jongest player in the Premier League era to reach this milestone for the Gunners (23Y 306d), after Bukayo Saka (22y 159d), Cesc Fabegas (23Y 134D) and Theo Walcott (23Y 235D).
