Yahoo News EPL Table: Premier League standings after 34 matches
Tottenham earned a hard-fought 1-0 win over Crystal Palace on Wednesday to move back to within four points of Chelsea at the top of the Premier League.
A visibly nervous Spurs side struggled at Selhurst Park, with Christian Eriksen's 30-yarder just over 10 minutes from time was the difference.
Crystal Palace didn't deserve to lose and their night got worse when Mamadou Sakho was stretchered off with a suspected knee injury.
In north London, another cagey game was separated by a Robert Huth own goal, as Nacho Monreal's wild effort deflected in three minutes from time to earn Arsenal a valuable 1-0 win over Leicester City.
