The Premier League is back in action with another set of matches this weekend as Bournemouth lock horns with Mikel Arteta's Arsenal side in an important clash at the Emirates Stadium on Saturday.
Arsenal vs Bournemouth Preview
Bournemouth are in 10th place in the Premier League standings and have consistently punched above their weight this season. The away side eased past Brighton & Hove Albion by a comfortable 3-0 scoreline last week and will be confident ahead of this fixture.
Arsenal, on the other hand, are at the top of the league table and have been in excellent form over the past year. The Gunners edged Tottenham Hotspur to a crucial 3-2 victory in the North London derby in their previous game and will look to take it up a notch this weekend.
