As the clouds are shifting before the match, renowned soccer pundit Martin Keown gives his insights into the summit clash between Arsenal and Brentford. He analyzed that Arsenal is struggling this season, with internal and external problems, loose discipline, frequent injuries, and the absence of core players Odego and Saka is even worse.
Keown admits that although Coach Arteta is trying to turn the clouds around and the team is still in a position to come back, this season will undoubtedly be a challenging one for Arsenal. He pointed out that despite the fact that Arsenal's stats are similar to those of last season, with only a one-goal difference between goals conceded and goals scored, the team will need to go further in terms of performance if they want to win the Premier League.
Keown was also quite critical of Chelsea's recent performance. He was looking forward to a three-legged race for the title, but Chelsea's losing streak has made the situation slightly dull. He emphasized that Arsenal's front line needs to find a new scoring weapon, especially in the face of Diaz and Gakpo and other top defenders, if you can improve the efficiency of scoring, will greatly help the team to compete for the title.
