Arsenal know nothing but a win will do as they host Everton in the Premier League this afternoon. A draw to Fulham last weekend means the Gunners sit six points behind Liverpool having played a game more, and they must now put together a run over Christmas to ensure they at least stay in touch.
Mikel Arteta’s side eased to victory over Monaco in midweek to continue their strong Champions League campaign and the focus now shifts back to domestic matters. Gabriel could return in defence in what would be a major boost, but Riccardo Calafiori is unlikely to make his return from injury.
It is ten days since Everton last played, after the Merseyside derby last week was postponed. Sean Dyche’s side beat Wolves 4-0 in their most recent match in what was one of their best displays of the season, form they will hope to carry into this match.
