Arsenal’s Premier League title challenge features a home game against Brentford on March 9.
Mikel Arteta’s side can take top spot with a win against the Bees as rivals Liverpool and Manchester City face off the following day at Anfield.
The Gunners remain central to the title shake-up this season and know they can put pressure on City and Liverpool if they can continue their excellent 2024 form today. They will be without Gabriel Martinelli and Gabriel Jesus, though, which could blunt their recently exceptional attack.
Brentford are aiming to put some distance between themselves and the relegation zone, while striker Ivan Toney will hope to put on a show against a team heavily linked with a possible transfer bid this year.
