A new Gunners win streak?
Had the same game at Arsenal last Wednesday, then at home against Everton. After a weak start in terms of play, two quick goals came a bit out of nowhere and in the second half it was pure defilation into the goal. Could cost to take out a couple of players relatively early and also air some names that haven't played much recently (Smith-Rowe and Tierney for example). Now getting a short rest (two days) before Bournemouth awaits in another home game. The short rest is probably a negative factor that could come into play here, but I still don't think it should matter that much.

The squad situation looks good and there is actually some competition for some places. Arsenal now have a really good starting position in the league and every game is very important. The Europa League match against Sporting next week clearly secondary.
Is Bournemouth the worst PL team?
We still consider Bournemouth as the league's worst team. The effort at home against Man City last weekend was hopelessly weak and there was a real difference in class. Away from home, Bournemouth are 2-2-8 and seen all season they have nine defeats by more than one goal. Draws with injury to Tavernier, who has been one of the better this season.
Arsenal - Bournemouth: What to expect
It is hard to see Bournemouth being enough here. Sure, a couple of exciting talents came in during the January window, but these haven't been able to make a difference in the team's performances. At the Emirates, Arsenal are a force and we see another clear victory here for the Gunners.
