Premier league results.





Arsenal 1-1 Liverpool.


Liverpool striker Peter Crouch gave Liverpool the lead at the end of the first half, but Nicklas Bendtner levelled on 54 minutes to leave honours even and Arsenal trailing Manchester United and Chelsea in the top-flight title race.

Both Gunners boss Wenger and his opposite number Rafa Benitez made a number of changes following Wednesday's 1-1 draw in their UEFA Champions League quarter-final first leg clash and with next week's return meeting at Anfield in mind.


ManchesterCity 0-2 Chelsea


Chelsea's 11th away win of the season kept the pressure on title rivals United as it closed the gap at the top of the Premier League table to two points ahead of United's trip to face Middlesbrough on Sunday.

City skipper Richard Dunne gave Chelsea the lead with a sixth-minute own goal, and Salomon Kalou's 53rd-minute strike proved enough to seal the three points, despite the Blues being far from firing on all cylinders.
