Manchester City and Arsenal played out a goalless draw at the Etihad on Sunday to leave the Premier League title race wide open.
Liverpool will end the weekend top of the table after they beat Brighton earlier in the day with just nine games remaining in a dramatic season.
Arsenal were sweating over the fitness of several players heading into the match, while City were without key personnel of their own.
Bukayo Saka and Gabriel Magalhaes were passed fit to start, while Ederson and Kyle Walker were absent for the hosts.

City dominated the early stages and it took a while for Arsenal to get a foothold in the game.
The Gunners arguably had the better chances in the first half but were unable to find that conviction in the final third.
The match became more heated after half-time but the clear-cut opportunities were few and far between for both teams.

Arsenal miss biggest opportunity
Arsenal may never have a better chance to beat Pep Guardiola's City at the Etihad.
Not only did they start the match without Ederson, Walker and John Stones, they also lost Nathan Ake to injury in the first half.
City's defence was still expensively built but was far from what Guardiola would regard as his first-choice back four.
Arsenal may have taken a point against a full-strength City but a win is what they needed.
There aren't many teams who will stop City between now and May 19, while Liverpool are riding a wave on Jurgen Klopp's farewell tour.
Arsenal have the tougher run-in of the three teams and victory today would have been a statement.
The Gunners have been waiting 20 years to get their hands on a Premier League title.
They may look back at today's match as a missed opportunity this season.

Jesus the weak link
Gabriel Jesus had a difficult afternoon for Arsenal against Man City

It was Gabriel Jesus' first start in the Premier League since January and he won't be happy with how he played.
The Brazilian was back at the ground where he won three titles earlier in his career.
But he was often wasteful in good attacking positions, taking far too many touches, while also picking up a silly yellow card for kicking the ball away.
He played out wide today having lost his No 9 position to Kai Havertz and it may be a while before he wins it back.
Arsenal have been so prolific in front of goal without Jesus but his return to the team didn't have the impact Mikel Arteta will have wanted.

There is no doubt that Liverpool will be the happier of the three teams after today's results.
They are clear at the top after seeing both of their rivals drop points.
Liverpool head to Old Trafford next Sunday in what could be a pivotal moment in the race.
Win that and they would quickly be installed as firm favourites to win Klopp a second title.
