Arsenal prepare to finish the Premier League season strong as they contest their final home match of 2025/26 by facing Burnley on Monday.
The Gunners sit two points clear at the top of the league standings, with Manchester City hot on their heels. City also hold a one-goal differential advantage as well as seven more goals scored, so Arsenal will need to get their attack in gear if they are to turn around the tiebreakers in their favour.
With just the season finale on the road at Crystal Palace left on the table for Arsenal, the title race comes down to these last two games, needing to win both to guarantee they lift the trophy.
