Liverpool has presented Arsenal with the chance to apply a bit of pressure in the title race.
Arsenal will take on West Ham at the Emirates with the chance to put a little pressure on Arne Slot's side in the title race.
Long thought to have the league won, barring any slip-ups, the Reds enter a tough little stretch of games that began with Villa. With Manchester City and Newcastle up next, the chance for Arsenal to pounce has revealed itself.
Of course, we have seen Liverpool stumble this season already and the Gunners failed to take advantage - the must do it now.
With only 13 league games left, the football gods have given Mikel Arteta's side a chance to put a little pressure on Liverpool who are away to City this weekend. Knowing that the buffer between themselves and the Gunners is only five points at the time they kickoff at the Etihad could do a number on their mentality.
Plus, Pep Guardiola's side is begining to find form, winning three of their last five league games, but after coming off a poor defeat at the hands of Real Madrid in the Champions League.
But back to Arsenal.
The Gunners will be at home, well rested, and face a West Ham team who will reportedly be without a host of stars for the trip to north London, which includes Lucas Paqueta, Vladimir Coufal, Michail Antonio, Crysencio Summerville, and Niclas Fullkrug.
If there was a chance to pounce, Arsenal, this is it.
Plus, the Hammers have only won one out of their last five league games and are languishing in 16th in the league table, oh and let's not forget the last time these two teams played, it was a 5-2 away victory for the Gunners.
Given the small margin for error and Liverpool's difficult next two games, the Gunners simply have to seize this opportunity to put real pressure on the Reds before they face City.
We have seen chances be squandered this season already, and with a makeshift front line that could consist of Raheem Sterling, Leandro Trossard, Ethan Nwaneri, and Mikel Merino (our choice to start over Sterling), the Gunners, who are at home, must win this contest.
The title race isn't over, but with each passing week, Liverpool get closer to claiming it.
The football gods have presented you a chance, Arsenal. Take it.
