The Gunners have their best chance in 10 years to be crowned English champions.
Things are looking extremely tight at the top of the Premier League table, with just seven points separating leaders Chelsea and fifth-placed Tottenham Hotspur.
Currently residing in second and having had a strong season to date are Arsenal, although not many fancy the north London team to go the whole way and win the title.
So here are five reasons why the Gunners can do just that.
1. Strong defence
For the first time in what seems an age a team managed by Arsene Wenger is actually good at the back and the clean-sheet they kept in the 0-0 draw with Manchester United on Wednesday was the side’s 12th from 26 matches – only West Ham United have kept more.
Per Mertesacker and Laurent Koscielny are arguably the best defensive partnership in the division and keeping the pair fit will be vital to their success, whilst Bacary Sagna and Kieran Gibbs perfectly compliment them at full-back.
Add to this the considerably improved form of goalkeeper Wojceich Szczesny and things look just right for a strong finish.
