Gameweek 37 finally comes to its conclusion this evening as Arsenal take on Sunderland at the Emirates. Tonight’s match remains crucial for both sides. The Gunners need a win to clinch third and potentially allow Arsene Wenger to rotate at home to West Brom on Sunday ahead of the FA Cup final, whilst Sunderland need a point to seal their survival for another season.

Arsenal’s 1-1 draw at United saw all of their big-hitters fail to deliver the goods in the first match of the double. Alexis Sanchez, Santi Cazorla, Olivier Giroud and Aaron Ramsey were afforded significant investment prior to the deadline and their new batch of owners will be desperate for the Gunners to turn on the style. All four start this evening, although Arsene Wenger does make two changes – Jack Wilshere and Kieran Gibbs come in for Francis Coquelin and Nacho Monreal. Laurent Koscielny is fit to start in central defence, despite a recent flu virus scare.

Sunderland arrive on a four-match unbeaten run, though, and have conceded more than a single goal just once in seven matches under Dick Advocaat. Can the Black Cats record a third straight shut-out for the first time this term and reward owners of Costel Pantilimon and Patrick van Aanholt again? The Black Cats make just one change – Adam Johnson starts on the flank as Liam Bridcutt misses out through injury.

    Walcott is the only one being direct enough, I don't know why Arsenal aren't starting him.

      He's always been a bit of a halted chicken that can't pay the team game.

    No difference for CL between 2nd and 3rd? Straight through to the group stage for both teams, yes?

    1. Heels_Over_Head

      aye, but Arsenal need to lose to have a shot at nicking the Wenger Cup still

        • 16 Years
        11 years, 1 month ago

  19. lastmanback
    • 15 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    Why is Panti not on for max bonus or any bonus for that matter? Craziness!

    1. Gamst - Up (?) the Rovers
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Man in the stand is turning in his grave.

  20. Gamst - Up (?) the Rovers
    • 16 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    Defoe goal would be orgasm!

  21. Danstoke82
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    Wow Panti is bossing it

  22. Andy1
    • 16 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    A draw would still mean arsenal need a point to guarantee third.
    Means giroud and Sanchez play sunday

    1. Heels_Over_Head
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      I'd play Wally ahead of Giroud on current form

    2. Jimmers
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      7 goal turnaround needed by ManU

  23. guardian.c
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    0-0 or a giroud goal best for me

  24. Make United Great Again
    • 13 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    Panti in goal for me. Is he on for any bonus?

    1. Punty
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      It's a farce

    2. Towsor44
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      To a lot of consternation, no at the moment! All Arsenal defence

    3. Hybrid.power
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Doesn't look like it unfortunately, Arsenal defenders bossing them

  25. Wings of Steel
    • 15 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    Baps system always been flawed. Panti wont get 3bps

    1. Danstoke82
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      That is ludicrous if he doesn't get the full 3.

    2. darko
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      It has Kos and Bellerin ahead of him? Ridiculous!

  26. You Must Be Jokin Ere
    • 13 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    Defending by defenders and outstanding goalkeeping by keepers not recognised in the Baps

  27. Duke Silver ☑
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    If Panti tests positively for steroids, his fpl points are null and void, right? 😉

    1. Heels_Over_Head
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      * HGH

  28. Bubz
    • 12 Years

    I wonder if a Cazorla shot will ever reach the goal

  29. brianutd-why always we? 20
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    Sanchez you are the only one I want to score please

  30. Ziro Becomes One

    Minutes remaining?

    1. Declan
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      3 added

    2. Wouter
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

    3. Kudo Warrior
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Should be 3 stoppage minutes.
