Desperate to extend their advantage in the top four, Arsenal will welcome Bournemouth to the Emirates on Wednesday night.

Starting with the hosts, booking their spot in the quarterfinals of this year’s Europa League, Arsenal will have their sights set on securing Champions League football this season. In their 27 Premier League matches this season, they have won 16, drawn five and losing six, scoring 55 and conceding 37 in return. With a points tally of 53, the Gunners now hold a one-point buffer over slipping out of the top four. As for their recent form, Arsenal have won six of their last seven matches at the Emirates and have scored two or more goals in each victory.

As for the visitors, although Bournemouth might still find themselves in the top half of the table, they have drastically struggled with their away form this season. In their 27 games this season, they have won 10, drawn four and lost 13, scoring 38 and conceding 48 in return. No team lower than 17th in the Premier League table holds a worse defensive record. As for their recent worrying showings away from the Vitality Stadium, the Cherries have remarkably lost their last nine away matches across all competitions, conceding 15 in their last five matches on the road.
