New Delhi: Arsenal will look to continue their unbeaten start to the season as they travel to Bournemouth for a crucial Premier League clash at the Vitality Stadium. After narrowly avoiding a shock defeat to Southampton two weeks ago, Mikel Arteta’s side showed their resilience, coming from behind to beat the Saints 3-1. Bukayo Saka was the driving force once again, helping to set up both Kai Havertz and Gabriel Martinelli, before scoring late to seal the win.
Sitting in third place, Arsenal have a chance to go top, at least for a few hours, if they take all three points today. The Gunners are also just one victory away from their 2,000th win in the English top flight, something only Liverpool have achieved before.
Meanwhile, Bournemouth are still searching for consistency under Andoni Iraola. Their 1-0 loss to Leicester last week highlighted their struggles against the top teams. With just one win in their last four matches, the Cherries will need to step up if they want to avoid another defeat, especially given their poor record against Arsenal.
