In the last round, the Gunners defeated Manchester United. The fate of the match was decided by Trossard’s goal in the first half. Manchester United had few chances to equalize, so Arsenal held on to their lead until the final whistle.
This was the fifth consecutive victory for Arteta’s team. During these matches, they scored 13 goals, conceded two, and kept a clean sheet four times. As a result, Arsenal improved their goal difference and now have it better than City (61 against 60). And this is a key factor with equal points.
Here’s where Contra Spem Spero comes into play. Arsenal not only needs to win but also keep an eye on the parallel match between Manchester City and West Ham. Even a draw in that match will be enough for Arteta’s side since the goal difference is in their favor. However, any dropped points by the Gunners would put an end to their entire season.
In the previous match, the Toffees faced the team from the bottom of the table, Sheffield United. In this case, similar to Arsenal’s match against Man United, the outcome was also decided by a single goal scored in the first half. Dukure scored with a precise strike, marking his seventh goal in the current Premier League season – he is the team’s top scorer alongside Calvert-Lewin.
If we consider the form of all Premier League teams over the last five matches, Everton ranks third in terms of points earned, trailing only Arsenal and Manchester City. Ancelotti’s men have gathered 13 points out of 15 possible, with their only non-win being against Luton (1-1). They notably defeated Liverpool 2-0.
Despite being eight points adrift, Everton secured their place in the Premier League for the next season several rounds ago. The team currently sits in 15th place, 14 points clear of the relegation zone. They are even closer to the ninth position, trailing by just 12 points.
