The Gunners ran out 3-0 victors as David Raya earned himself the Golden Glove trophy to become the first Arsenal keeper since Petr Cech to win the award.
Arsenal missed a lot of chances in the first half and for a time it seemed the home side were in for a repeat of their recent game against Aston Villa.
Bukayo Saka finally gave Arsenal the lead from the penalty spot just before half time after Kai Havertz was fouled in the box.
Bournemouth looked far more lively in the second half but Leandro Trossard scored the next goal, giving the Gunners a much needed two-goal cushion.
VAR wiped out a goal apiece for each side before Declan Rice added his name to the scoresheet to give the Gunners a 3-0 win.
In another EPL decider, Erling Haaland scored four goals as Man City crushed Wolverhampton Wanderers 5-1.
But Manager Pep Guardiola is not placing much faith in Manchester City then, given he expects Arsenal to win every game and the Gunners visit Old Trafford on 12 May.
But, then, he doesn’t have to.

If City win their final three games they will go into the history books as the first team to win the English title in four successive seasons.
Haaland goals against Wolves ensured City navigated their latest obstacle with ease. Now it is on to Craven Cottage and Fulham, a team they have beaten 15 times in a row.
They finish with West Ham at home. City have not dropped a point at Etihad Stadium against the Hammers since Guardiola arrived in 2016.
In between comes a trip to Tottenham. City have not scored a Premier League goal or taken a point at Spurs’ new stadium. They did win there in the FA Cup this season, though, and Ange Postecoglou’s team are in terrible form.
And, as Wolves boss Gary O’Neil pointed out, this is the hardest time to play City.
“Manchester City, in May, when they are chasing down a fourth consecutive Premier League title, are fairly tough.
“They have an incredible focus at this point. History tells you, at this point in the run-in, they are difficult to stop,” he said.
