Those connected to Arsenal will have everything crossed during the international break in the hope that nothing derails their pursuit of the Premier League trophy.
After comfortably dispatching Crystal Palace 4-1 at the weekend, the Gunners opened up an eight-point lead at the top of the table - albeit having played one game more than Manchester City - and are now within eight more victories of being crowned champions of England for the first time since the 2003/04 season.
But among many factors that could derail Arsenal's momentum when domestic action resumes on April 1 is, of course, injuries. It's unclear as to how long William Saliba and Takehiro Tomiyasu will be sidelined after both defenders limped off against Sporting CP last week, whilst there is hope that Eddie Nketiah can return soon after an ankle problem.
