Arsenal had been actually good in opposition to Paris St-Germain on Wednesday, and I used to be impressed by how courageous they had been, however they nonetheless went out of the Champions League.
There will probably be Gunners followers on the market who will suppose they need to be profitable extra trophies than they’ve managed below Mikel Arteta, who has nonetheless not added to the FA Cup he lifted in his first season, 2019-20.

Arsenal are nonetheless on target however the largest downside for me has been their recruitment, particularly for them to not signal a striker final summer season. There are such high-quality margins between success and failure on the highest degree, and also you want somebody to place away your probabilities within the largest video games.
They mainly admitted that by making an attempt to signal Ollie Watkins from Aston Villa in January and if anybody or something is accountable for one more trophyless season, then that is the place it lies.
Now Arsenal have to refocus and ensure they do not let second place slip away.
This sport clearly will not be the title decider that some individuals could have anticipated earlier within the season, however I nonetheless really feel each side will probably be determined to win it.

By way of the sport itself, I actually do not know what to anticipate. Liverpool had been method under their greatest in opposition to Chelsea final week, however Arne Slot may go sturdy right here and so they could really feel they’ve a degree to show in opposition to their nearest rivals.
Equally, Arsenal could possibly be flat after their disappointment in Paris, or they may come out firing. Hopefully that is the case, and each groups will probably be up for it.
Sutton’s prediction: 1-1
