After three away games in a row, it is back to home comforts for Arsenal this evening
A huge eight days in Arsenal’s season begins this evening with a vital Premier League clash against Everton. It is officially the business end of the campaign and the Gunners are still competing on all four fronts, though hopes of winning an unprecedented quadruple will become clearer over the next week with three difficult fixtures to navigate.
Mikel Arteta’s side face Everton today, then take on Bayer Leverkusen in a Champions League decider on Tuesday before doing battle with Manchester City for the first piece of silverware on offer this season in the Carabao Cup final at Wembley Stadium next Sunday.
Ultimately, the Gunners know they cannot look past an Everton side, who are impressive away from home. However, the incentive for the hosts is that victory at the Emirates Stadium would open up a ten-point gap at the top of the Premier League table before Man City have the chance to respond against West Ham later tonight.
