Coming into this game with a six-point lead at the top after beating Sunderland 3-0, Arsenal will be pushing to get all three points, especially given that Manchester City are in action before them. After playing Brentford, Arsenal will be in action six days later against Wolves, ending their double gameweek in the Premier League.
Three more goals. Three more points.

Brentford are a team in form at the moment. After beating Aston Villa 1-0 despite being a man down, the Bees fought until the final whistle to earn a 3-2 win over Newcastle last weekend.
Brentford will be looking to put up a better performance than they did last time out against Arsenal and potentially add more spice to the title race. If Brentford win against Arsenal, they could leapfrog Liverpool into 6th place and have a real push for a UCL spot.
WHAT. A. PERFORMANCE. 🥰🥰🥰 pic.twitter.com/o46Ny8LLZF
