Manchester City and Aston Villa both slipped up in their pursuit of Premier League leaders Arsenal on Sunday with City drawing 2-2 at Tottenham Hotspur and Villa slumping to defeat at home to 10-man Brentford, Reuters reported. 

After a wobble of their own, Arsenal returned to form with a 4-0 hammering of Leeds United on Saturday opening a seven-point gap and throwing down the gauntlet to their title rivals.

Villa went down 1-0 to Brentford before City kicked off at a Tottenham Hotspur side who have been woeful at home, according to Reuters.
