Arsenal Will Have a Big Say on What the Final Premier League Table Looks Like
Although it’s been a disappointing campaign for Arsenal thus far, they are approaching the final couple of months in good form, are still in the Europa League – and a good shot according to allvideoslots – and looking at their remaining Premier League fixtures, they will have a big say in what the final table looks like.
The Gunners next two fixtures are with sides who still retain Champions League aspirations. Firstly Arsenal make the short trip to face West Ham United at the London Stadium. The Hammers have enjoyed an excellent campaign under David Moyes. Arsenal’s first home game of the season saw them beat West Ham 2-1, but both sides headed in different directions afterwards, and the Hammers go into the last ten games as genuine European contenders. It will be a difficult game for the Gunners, but one they will believe they can get something from.
Next up is a visit from ailing champions Liverpool. It’s been a poor season for Jürgen Klopp’s side but despite their struggles, they are still within touching distance of the Champions League places, and their priority for the remainder of the season will be to overhaul the likes of West Ham and Chelsea, and ensure that they can still qualify for next season’s competition. However, Arsenal will have home advantage and will want to make that count.
Between now and the end of the season, the Gunners also have to face Everton and Chelsea, both of whom are also in the running for the Champions League places. Everton are visitors to the Emirates at the end of April, while the Gunners visit Stamford Bridge to face Chelsea towards the end of the campaign.
At the other end of the table, Arsenal face a number of sides embroiled in the Premier League relegation battle.
On 17th April, Fulham visit the Emirates in what will be a crucial game for the Cottagers. Scott Parker’s men have been in good form over the past month or so, picking up some vital results, and putting themselves within touching distance of Newcastle United and Brighton and Hove Albion immediately above them. Fulham certainly won’t be fearing their trip to face Arsenal. The Gunners will also be hosting West Bromwich Albion and Brighton, and heading north to face Newcastle United during May, and so will have a big influence on who goes through the trapdoor and into the Championship.
However, although Arsenal have the potential to help determine the fate of a number of sides, their priority will be to finish their own campaign on a high.
