Arsenal and Bournemouth will lock horns with each other in the Premier League next weekend. The match between the Gunners and the Cherries will be held at the Emirates Stadium in North London and is scheduled to kick off at 12:30 pm UK time on Saturday.
Arsenal
Arsenal are going as strong as ever and are very likely to push Manchester City all the way in the Premier League title race this season. The Gunners are winning matches with ease and are scoring goals for fun. Unlike last season, the North London club are not going to collapse in the final weeks of the campaign, and there is a very good chance that they could beat defending champions City to the league title.
The Gunners are at the top of the Premier League table at the moment with 80 points from 35 matches. Arsenal are a point ahead of second-placed Manchester City, who have played 34 games. Liverpool are third with 75 points from 35 games.
Arsenal will head into the Premier League game against Bournemouth at the Emirates Stadium next weekend on the back of a 3-2 victory over Tottenham Hotspur away from home at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in the North London Derby. It came after a 5-0 hammering of Chelsea at the Emirates Stadium in the London derby which followed a 2-0 victory over Wolverhampton Wanderers away from home in the league.
Team News:
Arsenal are likely to line up in a 4-3-3 formation against Bournemouth. David Raya will be in goal and will have Ben White, William Saliba, Gabriel and Takehiro Tomiyasu in front of him in defence. Martin Odegaard, Thomas Partey and Declan Rice will be the three midfielders. Bukayo Saka, Kai Havertz and Leandro Trossard are likely to be the three forwards.
Bournemouth
Bournemouth
It looked doom and gloom at Bournemouth in the opening weeks of the season. Andoni Iraola, who replaced Gary O’Neil as the manager of the Cherries was struggling to get results, and it did look like the team could really get relegated to the Championship at the end of the campaign. However, things started to improve from the start of November, and Bournemouth are in a very respectable position in the Premier League table.
Bournemouth are 10th in the Premier League table at the moment with 48 points from 35 matches. The Cherries are level on points with West Ham United in eighth and are only six points behind the mighty Manchester United, who have played 34 matches and are sixth.
The Cherries will head into the Premier League game against Arsenal next weekend on the back of a 3-0 victory over Brighton and Hove Albion at home in the league. It came after a 1-0 victory over Wolverhampton Wanderers on the road in the league which followed a 3-1 defeat at the hands of Aston Villa away from home at Villa Park in the Premier League.
Team News:
Bournemouth are likely to line up in a 4-4-2 formation against Arsenal. Mark Travers will be in goal for the Cherries and will have Adam Smith, Marcos Senesi, Lloyd Kelly and Dango Ouattara in front of him in defence. Antoine Semenyo, Alex Scott, Lewis Cook and Justin Kluivert are likely to be the four midfielders. Enes Unal and Dominic Solanke will be the two centre-forwards.

Conclusion
