- Arsenal arrive top of the table but with defensive concerns growing.

- Discipline and fouls could play a decisive role under referee Barrott S.
- Recent head to heads hint at a closer contest than the table suggests.
Arsenal travel north carrying three points from a nervy 2-1 win over Wolves, a match that felt more like survival than celebration. Arteta’s side have now conceded first in three straight away league games, and they have kept just one clean sheet in their last six Premier League outings. That defensive wobble shows up in the numbers too, with Arsenal conceding an average of 0.88 goals away from home while allowing 9.5 corners per match. Injuries have not helped either. Ben White joins Gabriel Magalhaes and Kai Havertz on the sidelines, forcing another reshuffle at the back. It’s hard to say how stable this version of Arsenal really is right now.
Mikel Arteta has hinted that Mikel Merino could start up front for Arsenal against Everton, despite Viktor Gyokeres returning to fitness. The Gunners boss described Merino as a “really serious” option after the midfielder impressed during an injury-hit spell, delivering strong goal contributions. Gyokeres, meanwhile, continues to adapt after an inconsistent start following his summer move.
Arsenal to win stands out despite the tricky venue. Even with recent defensive issues, the Gunners still average 1.25 goals scored in away matches, compared to Everton conceding 1.13 at home. That balance slightly favors the visitors. Everton’s home games do produce goals, but their record against top level opponents tells a story. Five of their six league defeats have come against Champions League level sides, and Arsenal clearly fall into that bracket. Discipline also plays a role. Everton average 4.75 cards per home match, while Arsenal’s away games sit at just 3.63 cards. Over 90 minutes, that composure can swing tight moments. Arsenal also concede fewer corners than Everton, limiting sustained pressure. While Everton’s intensity will test them, Arsenal’s ability to manage matches, especially late on, gives them the edge. It may not be comfortable, but the away win feels justifiable.
