Arsenal are set for a big week ahead of them, with the number of games until the end of the season dwindling down. They still have the advantage over sides around them, with a game in hand that could give them a much-needed three points.
North London rivals Tottenham, Manchester United and West Ham are all within a shout of getting into the top four, with Champions League qualification up for grabs. For each team, it could be the difference between how their project continues to develop.
For Mikel Arteta, qualification could mean attracting even better players, and continuing to build his project that has started to take off so well this season. On the other hand, missing out means the Spaniard may never have a better shot of getting the Gunners into the competition again.
