3. Top of the table at Christmas – win the league?

That is what is facing Mikel Arteta’s side should they win on Saturday; a nice piece of potential history. Since the 2010/11 season, eight out of 11 times the team top at Christmas has gone on to lift the Premier League trophy.

Since the inception of the Premier League, 73% of the time, the team that is top at Christmas wins the title. That is a healthy bit of incentive for the Gunners against Wolves.
