Arsenal are just a point behind Chelsea, and they would come second only if they win against Sunderland and Chelsea get only a point from their remaining two matches, which is highly unlikely.
Everton, who needed full three points to capture the UEFA Cup spot, were seen begging as they couldn't get past a rather resilient Arsenal defence.
Arsene Wenger started the match without Fabregas and Flamini, while giving a chance to Nicklas Bendtner and Gilberto Silva.
Arsenal were the better team in the first half, with Theo Walcott in supreme form, dashing at every opportunity, and linking very well with Adebayor and Bendtner.
The second half started with Everton in firm control, but they couldn't sneak past the Arsenal defence. Johnson kept pushing the ball forward, but he never received support from fellow Everton players.
The decisive moment came 14 minutes from time, when Nicklas Bendtner passed the ball to Traore at the left wing, who went ahead and produced a beautiful cross for Bendtner to power it past Howard.
