Manchester City is suddenly in charge of the Premier League after a pivotal day in the title race. Arsenal and Liverpool both produced lethargic performances under pressure and lost home matches to leave City with a two-point lead with six games remaining. Liverpool lost 1-0 to Crystal Palace for its first league defeat at Anfield in 18 months.

Has it happened again? Playing between a double-header against Bayern Munich in the Champions League quarterfinals, Arsenal’s players certainly lacked their usual spark as goals by Leon Bailey in the 84th and Ollie Watkins — who grew up supporting Arsenal — earned fourth-place Villa a big win in its own bid for Champions League qualification.

A few hours earlier at Anfield, Liverpool — playing three days after losing 3-0 to Atalanta in the Europa League quarterfinals — failed to respond to going behind to Eberechi Eze’s 14th-minute goal.
