A 2-1 victory over Fulham, sealed by Bukayo Saka’s second-half goal seven minutes after making his long-awaited return from injury, cut the Merseysiders’ lead at the top of the table to nine points, with Mikel Arteta’s side having played one game more.

Bukayo Saka marked his highly anticipated return with a goal at home Tuesday vs. Fulham in Premier League action, helping the Gunners to a 2-1 win. Saka scored Arsenal's second in the 73rd minute just seven minutes after being introduced for the first time since late December when he tore his hamstring vs. Crystal Palace.
