Arsenal is gearing up for an important match against Crystal Palace at the Emirates Stadium on Sunday. The Gunners aim to achieve their seventh consecutive victory across all competitions. Meanwhile, Crystal Palace struggles with their form, arriving after three winless games, including a recent loss to AEK Larnaca.
Arsenal’s Challenge
Currently leading the Premier League, Arsenal is determined to capture their first title in over two decades. Their defensive prowess is commendable, having conceded only three goals in their first eight matches.
