Arsenal prove Sergio Aguero wrong as Mikel Arteta overcomes problem in Man City title race

Arsenal Mikel Arteta Sergio Aguero Gabriel Jesus Thomas Partey World Cup Manchester City Eddie Nketiah EPL Gunners

Arsenal have been fighting with Manchester City at the top of the Premier League table since the start of the 2022/23 campaign. The Gunners have lost just three games this season, winning 17 of their 23 matches so far as the pressure continues to build heading towards the run-in.

Mikel Arteta's side are set to face Leicester City this afternoon ahead of their game in hand against Everton on Wednesday, March 1. By this time next week, Arsenal could be five points clear at the top of the table but Arteta knows his side need to go on a winning run to keep City at arms length.

Thomas Partey could be set to return to the matchday squad after missing the last two matches with a muscle injury. Gabriel Jesus has been absent since the World Cup but Eddie Nketiah has proven to be a capable deputy, helping keep Arsenal at the top of the table.
