Arsenal are scheduled to host Tottenham Hotspur in the north London derby on Sunday evening.
The Gunners have experienced another difficult season in the Premier League, and they are languishing in the 10th spot at the moment with 38 points.
Spurs have also had an average campaign by their standards, but they are in a better position with three places and seven points ahead of their cross-city rivals.
The derby will be key to the top-four prospects of both teams, but the Gunners undoubtedly face a potentially must-win situation.
Chelsea, who are occupying the final Champions League spot, are 12 points ahead of Mikel Arteta’s side but have played a game more.
