A narrow victory for Arsenal against Chelsea
Arsenal secured a 1-0 win over London rivals Chelsea at the Emirates on Sunday. While the victory halted the Gunners’ three-game winless streak in the Premier League, it’s unlikely to have a significant impact on the title race, given Liverpool’s commanding 12-point lead with nine games remaining. The win also extended Arsenal’s recent dominance over Chelsea, who haven’t beaten the Gunners since 2021.
Upcoming Fixtures for Arsenal
Arsenal’s next five Premier League matches are crucial as they aim to keep pace with Liverpool. Here’s a breakdown:
- 01/04/25 – 19:45: Arsenal vs Fulham
Fulham’s visit to the Emirates could mark the return of Bukayo Saka, who has been recovering from hamstring surgery. - 05/04/25 – 12:30: Everton vs Arsenal
The Gunners face Everton at Goodison Park, a venue where they’ve struggled in recent years. Sean Dyche’s side held Arsenal to a goalless draw in the reverse fixture. - 12/04/25 – 17:30: Arsenal vs Brentford
Brentford, one of the most prolific away teams this season, will visit the Emirates between Arsenal’s Champions League quarter-final clashes with Real Madrid. - 20/04/25 – 14:00: Ipswich vs Arsenal
