Arsenal showcased their defensive prowess yet again, holding the formidable Manchester City to a goalless draw at the Etihad Stadium.
This remarkable performance on Easter Sunday is a testament to the Gunners’ resilience and their unwavering quest for their first Premier League title since 2004.
With possession at a mere 27%, Mikel Arteta’s squad demonstrated that tactical discipline and a solid backline can counterbalance the scales against even the most possession-dominant teams.
This draw extends their unbeaten streak to nine league matches (W8, D1), positioning them just two points behind the leaders, Liverpool, in a thrilling title race.
The Emirates Fortress
Arsenal’s return to the Emirates signals a favourable turn in their fixtures, especially considering their astounding record against newly-promoted clubs at home.
Unbeaten in their last 38 encounters (W33, D5), the Gunners stand on the brink of extending this streak as they prepare to face Luton Town.
The narrow 4-3 victory in their previous head-to-head meeting will undoubtedly fuel Arsenal’s confidence, aiming to secure their sixth consecutive competitive home win.
Luton Town’s Uphill Battle
On the other side, Luton Town enter the fray reeling from a heartbreak against Tottenham, with a late goal denying them a crucial point in their relegation struggle.
Despite the setback, Rob Edwards’ team showcased their fighting spirit, an attribute they’ll need in abundance as they visit the Emirates.
With a dire need to translate spirited performances into tangible points on the road, Luton face a daunting challenge, especially given their record of the most away goals conceded this season (36).
