The Premier League is set for another weekend of action as the table really begins to take shape.
It’s been a good start for Arsenal who currently sit second only on goal difference behind Manchester City after embarking on an impressive winning streak that they extended against Swansea last weekend.
This week’s opponents are Middlesbrough, but they haven’t had as good a time of it. After initially impressing from coming up from the Championship the side from the north east have struggled to build and lost at home to Watford last time out in what was a pretty drab match.
Boro, though, will want to show they are up for the fight and Arsenal will have to match them for desire to ensure they come out of the game with three points. They’ve got the opportunity to go clear at the top if things go their way and the result could just depend on these three key battles’ outcomes…
