Report: A look at Arsenal’s remaining fixtures as Arteta eyes Premier League trophy

As the Premier League season heats up, Arsenal find themselves in a title race with Manchester City. The Gunners are currently sitting at the top of the table with 75 points after 32 games, but they are closely followed by second-placed Manchester City, who have 70 points and two games in hand.

Arsenal’s remaining fixtures will be crucial in determining whether they can hold on to their lead and win the Premier League title. Their next game is against Manchester City away on April 26th, which could prove to be a pivotal match in the title race. A win for Arsenal would give them a significant advantage over their rivals, while a loss could see them lose their grip on first place.

After the Manchester City game, Arsenal will face Chelsea at home on May 2nd. Chelsea are currently in the 11th place and would wish to give three Gunn an upset. This game will be another tough test for Arsenal as they look to maintain their lead at the top of the table.

On May 7th, Arsenal will travel to Newcastle for what should be a relatively straightforward fixture. However, Newcastle have been known to cause upsets in the past and Arsenal cannot afford to take this game lightly.

Arsenal’s final home game of the season is against Brighton on May 14th. Brighton are currently fighting for European sporlts and will be desperate for points as they try to get the chance of playing in Europe next season. This game could prove to be tricky for Arsenal if they underestimate their opponents.

Arsenal’s penultimate fixture is away at Nottingham Forest on May 20th. Nottingham Forest are currently in the relegation zone and will have nothing left to play for if they aren’t out of it by then. However, they will still want to put on a good performance against one of England’s top teams.

Finally, Arsenal’s last game of the season is at home against Wolves on May 28th. Wolves have had a disappointing season and are currently languishing in the bottom half of the table. Arsenal will be hoping to end their season on a high with a comfortable win.

Overall, Arsenal’s remaining fixtures are a mixed bag. They have some tough games against Manchester City and Chelsea, but they also have some easier fixtures against Nottingham Forest and Wolves. If Arsenal can maintain their focus and continue to play at their best, they should be able to hold on to their lead and win the Premier League title. However, with Manchester City hot on their heels, they cannot afford to slip up in any of their remaining games.
