Arsenal Team News
After two consecutive draws against Liverpool and West Ham, Arsenal is now only four points clear at the top of the table. But Manchester City has a game in hand.
The situation for Arsenal became more complicated and now this game against Southampton is a must-win.
After the game against the Saints, they will have three very tough games against Manchester City, Chelsea, and Newcastle. They must beat Southampton to stay in the lead ahead of Manchester City before their derby match.
Arsenal is attacking in a very good mood. They have scored at least one goal in the last 11 games. In the previous nine games, they have scored 27 goals which are 3 goals per game.
They are undefeated in nine games, but these two draws made life more difficult for them. Arsenal kept only one clean sheet in the last six games, and they conceded two goals in three of those six matches.
At home, they are fantastic this season and only Manchester City has won all three points at Emirates. Arsenal has four consecutive wins at home scoring an average of 3.75 goals per game.
Southampton Team News
Southampton is with one foot in Championship. They are in last place with 23 points and six wins after 31 games and they are four points from safety.
That’s not a big difference and seven games before the end they have realistic chances to stay in the league. But they have been terrible in the last few weeks.
Southampton is winless in six games, and they have three consecutive defeats. In the last 11 games, they have had two wins, but they aren’t in the worst form in the league. Luckily for them, there are teams like Leicester and Nottingham who are struggling even more recently.
Southampton changed three managers this season and everyone failed to wake up the squad. They are struggling with scoring goals and with 24 goals scored they have the worst attack in the league.
They failed to score in 13 games (eight away from home). They failed to score in four of the last five away games.

Arsenal is a huge favourite here and this is a must-win game for them. If they cannot beat Southampton at home, they don’t deserve a title. After this game, they have a very tough schedule and that’s why they must win all three points here.
Southampton is struggling and how they look on the pitch, it will be a huge surprise if they somehow manage to stay in the league.
We believe that Arsenal will win on Friday night.
