Arsenal travel away to Southampton sitting firmly in 2nd spot in the table and have the opportunity to progress to the top of the table. Arsenal have been in resolute form coming into this game with a 6 match unbeaten run behind them with 5 wins and a draw during that time. Arsenal despite having injuries all around the pitch missing players like Arteta, Rosicky, Sanchez, Welbeck, Cazorla, Wilshere, Coquelin have still managed to put on results on the pitch. The main reason is that their offensive unit of Campbell, Walcott, Ozil and Giroud has finally started to click in form, scoring goals. On the other side the defence has been improving led by veterans Cech and Mertersacker.


The Gunners take on a Southampton team who has struggled to produce results in the recent time despite having nearly a fit squad to chose from. The Saints have not won for the last 6 matches on the trot; grabbing just 1 point on those games. Struggles have come offensively for sure; but defensively they have been horrible; keeping only 2 clean sheets in their last 13 games. Ronald Koeman has been having a struggling motivating the squad who are languishing in the bottom half of the table after losses to Man City, Tottenham, Crystal Palace, Stoke & Liverpool.


With the Gunners offence in rhythm and the Saints defence in tatters; I expect Arsenal to walk away with a victory in this game.
