Fresh from their comeback win over BATE Borisov in the UEFA Europa League on Thursday, Arsenal's attention will turn to the Premier League this weekend when they host Southampton.
On Sunday, the Gunners will be seeking to keep the pressure on Manchester United, who face Liverpool on the same day, and Chelsea, who take on Manchester City in the Carabao Cup final, in the race for a top-four finish in the top flight.
Southampton remain immersed in a relegation battle as they gear up to spring a shock in north London. Although manager Ralph Hasenhuttl has help lift spirits at the club, they are without a win in their last three and currently sit in 18th spot in the Premier League standings, a point behind in-form Cardiff City.
