In my opinion, there are several reasons why Arsenal may struggle to win the EPL title, despite being on top of the Premier League table with 69 points.
Manchester City, who are the defending champions, are currently in second place with eight points behind the Gunners, but they still have 11 matches left to play, which means they could close the gap to just five points if they win their game in hand.
One of the main challenges that Arsenal will face in their quest for the title is the tough away matches that they have left to play. On April 9th, they will face Liverpool at Anfield in a fixture that could prove to be title-damaging, as the Reds are also vying for a top-four spot.
Then, on April 26th, Arsenal will travel to the Etihad to face Manchester City, who will be looking to take full advantage of their home ground and reduce the gap to just five points. If Liverpool fails to beat Arsenal before then, the pressure on the Gunners will be even higher.
Three days later, Arsenal will host Chelsea in a London derby at Emirates Stadium, followed by a match against Graham Potter’s Brighton on April 29th. The Gunners will then face a difficult trip to St James’ Park to play Newcastle United on May 6th, with the Eddie Howe side also fighting for a top-four spot.
Furthermore, Arsenal will be playing most of their remaining matches away from home, which could add to the pressure and result in more losses. The Gunners struggled to perform under pressure last season, as seen in their matches against Tottenham Hotspur and Newcastle United, which ultimately led to them finishing fifth and playing in the Europa League competition this season.
While Arsenal’s early lead in the campaign is promising, there are still many challenges that they need to overcome in order to win the EPL title, and it remains to be seen if they can rise to the occasion and come out on top.
I’m Kanyi Muturi and am from Tabuga, a small village in Nakuru. I have been following all sports since I was a kid and have been interested in the gambling side of sports since I was in high school. It took me a little while to get a grasp on all of the different gambling terminology and understand how confusing and complicated it can all seem when you first start.
Are you a professional gambler?
I am a successful gambler. But make no mistake about it: I’m a long-time recreational sports bettor. I’m not a professional gambler. I’m not claiming to be a professional gambler. I’ve never, to my recollection, even been acquainted with a professional gambler. And far be it from me to make the preposterous claim that following my advice will turn you into a professional gambler. It ain’t about that. Not here it ain’t. I just want to teach you a new form of recreation, a fun new pastime in what can sometimes be an unfun life.
