Saturday’s last hurrah finds Arsenal facing off with Everton at the Emirates. The Gunners are enjoying a formidable run of form, having bested the likes of Manchester United and Bayern Munich this month. Meanwhile, the Toffees need to steady the ship following a 3-0 home defeat to the Red Devils last time out.

Arsenal ranked second for goals scored (11) over the last four Gameweeks, converting 16.9% of their chances. Furthermore, they placed second for shots inside the box (49) and third for big chances (12) over that stretch. After losing 2-0 to West Ham United in Gameweek 1, the North London outfit recorded shut-outs in their subsequent trio of home ties, which suggests that Everton’s forward contingent face a challenging afternoon.

Everton are unbeaten on their travels this term, chalking up two wins and two draws in the process. No side has conceded fewer goals in away fixtures (two) than the Toffees, so a shut-out isn’t beyond the realms of possibility. Roberto Martinez’s charges needs to sharpen up their shooting if they are to breach the Gunners’ rearguard, though, having ranked in the bottom five for shots on target (12) in the last four Gameweeks.
