Arsenal may be absolutely flying at the moment, but the challenge of a hectic fixture schedule still awaits them following postponements earlier this season. On top of Premier League matches, Mikel Arteta’s side has also had to turn its focus back on the Europa League after qualifying for the competition last season following a short absence. Additionally, both the Carabao Cup and FA Cup are yet to get under way for the Gunners.
One of the matches to have been called off is Arsenal’s home game with current Premier League champions Manchester City, originally pencilled in for October 19. As it stands, Arsenal find themselves four points ahead of City at the top of the table, setting up an exciting clash as a result.
Why was the match postponed?
