While the Gunners have laboured in recent weeks, their 3-1 win over Brentford on New Year’s Day cut the gap on leaders Liverpool to six points.
With the Reds not in action until Sunday, three points for Mikel Arteta’s side at the Amex Stadium would reduce that to only three – albeit Liverpool do boast a game in hand.
