Written by December is already here with us and this is the period where the Premier League teams get it rough. The fixtures are packed to the brim and this is always the time to either make it or break it because of the congested fixtures.
Arsenal has however mastered the way to stay awoke in times like this. The past two seasons, Arsenal has always stayed on top of the Premier League table during the Christmas period. Therefore, this is not a major problem now that the club is in position two just below Liverpool.
The following are the fixtures that Arsenal will have this December:
Wednesday 4th December 2024, Arsenal Vs Manchester United at the Emirates Stadium, Premier League
- Sunday 8th December 2024, Fulham Vs Arsenal, Premier League
- Wednesday 11th December 2024, Arsenal Vs Monaco in the Champions League
- Saturday 14th December 2024, Arsenal Vs Everton, Premier League
- Wednesday 18th December 2024, Arsenal Vs Crystal Palace, EFL Cup
- Saturday 21st December 2024, Crystal Palace Vs Arsenal, Premier League
- Friday 27th December 2024, Arsenal Vs Ipswich
The fixtures look congested indeed but Mikel Arteta and his squad are equally very ready for the challenge. The players who were injured are recovering very well and they will soon join the rest in building the squad depth.
Captain Martin Odegaard’s return has also boosted Arsenal in a great deal. The club has found its route back to winning ways. His creativity in the midfield has enabled the forward players to start striking well and scoring goals.
This will improve the goal difference of the club and it may be very significant at the end of the season now that the Premier League has very many contenders. These are however games that Arsenal is expected to pick up all the maximum points if they put in more effort and play the way they are currently playing.
