Arsenal Preview
The league’s top team, Arsenal, is two points clear of second-placed Manchester City despite having played one extra game. The league championship is what Arsenal supporters desire, and the team has thus far performed admirably.
The club’s ability to complete the task they began is still up in the air, though.
Graduate of Hale End academy Bukayo Saka has been leading the charge. The same can be said about Martin Odegaard and Saka, who are two of the top players in the Premier League at the moment. The offensive performances of Saka and Odegaard have been crucial!
Forward Bukayo Saka has 17 goal contributions in 24 league starts for Arsenal this season, meanwhile Norwegian midfielder Martin Odegaard has 14 goal contributions in 23 league starts for Arsenal!
Everton Preview
Conversely, Everton suffered a league defeat to Unai Emery’s Aston Villa, falling down 2-0. Aston Villa won thanks to goals in the second half from winger Emiliano Buendia and striker Ollie Watkins of England.
While Leeds United is in the lead with 17 points, Everton is one point back in 18th place.
It was a wise decision to choose Sean Dyche as manager; Dyche’s aptitude for getting the most out of his players has been well-documented, and it might be argued that he is the best manager Everton could have chosen.
They have won two of their previous four league contests, and they are gradually moving up the standings. To stay in the Premier League and escape relegation, though, Everton will need every single result going forward.
Alex Iwobi has six assists in the league in 24 starts for Everton, while Winger Dwight McNeil has four goal contributions in 14 league starts.
