Arsenal face Southampton in the English Premier League on Saturday. <\/a>The Gunners are unbeaten in the league this season, while the Saints have lost five of their six matches (with one draw) and have a -9-goal difference. However, Southampton are unbeaten in their last three matches against Arsenal (WDD).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Arsenal Form<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Gunners are looking very strong this season. They ended last season with six straight wins and began this season with 2-0 victories over Wolves and Aston Villa (away). After a 1-1 home draw with ten men against Brighton, they won 1-0 at Tottenham despite conceding 15 shots to their rivals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A 0-0 draw away to Atalanta in the Champions League was followed by a 2-2 draw at Manchester City, where they played the second half with ten men and allowed 28 shots after the break. After a 5-1 win over Bolton in the Carabao Cup, they scored two late goals to beat Leicester 4-2 and won 2-0 at home against PSG in a comfortable performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Arsenal Team News<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Arteta remains without injured midfielder Martin Odegaard, but Mikel Merino is back from a shoulder injury to bolster the squad. Oleksandr Zinchenko and Takehiro Tomiyasu are both ruled out in defense, with Riccardo Calafiori set to play at left-back.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Both Ben White and Jurrien Timber are doubtful at right-back. Arsenal may have to use Jakub Kiwior or even Thomas Partey as a makeshift right-back if neither White nor Timber is fit to play.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Arsenal Motivation<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Gunners will see this match as a must-win and will likely expect to score several goals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Once in the lead, Arsenal may sit back and allow Southampton to dominate possession, using the pace of Saka, Martinelli, and others to strike on the counter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Southampton Form<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Southampton are bottom of the table, having lost five and drawn one of their six matches since being promoted. They started the season with a 1-0 loss at Newcastle, despite playing against ten men and holding 78% possession with 19 shots. A 1-0 home defeat to Nottingham Forest followed, where they had 65% of the ball but only managed five shots. A 3-1 loss at Brentford saw them concede 2.78 xG and 20 shots, despite dominating 67% possession.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A 3-0 home loss to Manchester United saw them miss a penalty at 0-0. They advanced in the Carabao Cup after a 1-1 draw at Everton, winning on penalties. They earned their first league point with a 1-1 home draw against Ipswich. Last weekend, Southampton were beaten 3-1 at Bournemouth, trailing 3-0 after 39 minutes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Southampton Team News<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Goalkeeper Gavin Bazunu is injured, and center-back Jack Stephens is suspended after receiving a red card and reacting poorly to it. Will Smallbone is also unavailable in midfield.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Coach Russell Martin made three changes at half-time last week. Players like Joe Aribo and Ben Brereton Diaz are pushing for starting spots, while Ryan Fraser and Max Cornet are the main candidates to be dropped.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Southampton Motivation<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Southampton are unlikely to change their philosophy, even when playing away at Arsenal. They will aim to keep possession and take risks in their build-up play.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A draw would be a good result for the Saints, but they won\u2019t park the bus to secure it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Key Stats<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Arsenal <\/strong>have lost just 1 of their last 16 home matches (43 goals scored).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Arsenal<\/strong> have scored 29 goals in their last 11 home league matches.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Southampton<\/strong> have lost 5 of their 6 league matches this season (1 draw).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Southampton<\/strong> are unbeaten in their last 3 matches against Arsenal (WDD).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Verdict<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Arsenal are overwhelming favorites. They should have far too much for Southampton and could dominate at the Emirates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
