Arsenal lost their last game away to Everton in the Premier League 1-0 and were eliminated in the FA Cup by Manchester City prior to that.
Arsenal will look to maintain their lead at the top of the Premier League table intact when they welcome Brentford to the Emirates Stadium. Mikel Arteta’s side are sitting pretty at the top of the league standings, however, their recent run is a bit of a concern. The Gunners are going through a two-game losing streak in all competitions. They would be keen to put an end to that streak and get back to winning ways. However, they will have to be at the top of their game to get anything out of the match against an in-form Brentford.
Brentford are currently one of the in-form sides in the division. They have won four of their last five Premier League games, while drawing the other match. Therefore, the Bees will be confident of getting something out of this game despite the match taking place at the Emirates Stadium. Brentford comfortably got past Southampton 3-0 in their last game. Hence, they would be brimming with confidence going into this match.
The same cannot be said for the Gunners. Arsenal lost their last game away to Everton in the Premier League 1-0 and were eliminated in the FA Cup by Manchester City prior to that. Despite those two losses, Arsenal’s form has been nothing but impressive this season, especially in the league. Overall, Arsenal have 50 points from 20 matches to have a five-point cushion over second-placed Man City. They have also played a game lesser than Pep Guardiola’s side. Meanwhile, Brentford are seventh in the league table with 33 points from 21 games.
