Arsenal travel to face Everton at Goodison Park on Saturday with the two sides heading in opposite directions, as the away side are unbeaten in 13 straight while the hosts aim to reverse an eight-match Premier League winless streak.

Arsenal’s last Premier League match saw them triumph 3-2 over Manchester United at home to extend their unbeaten streak to 13 (W11 D2 L0), leaving them five points above Manchester City at the top of the table.

Everton sit in 19th place on 15 points, two points from safety with 17 matches remaining. Everton were defeated 2-0 in their last Premier League match at London Stadium against West Ham United, extending their winless streak to eight (W0 D2 L6).

The previous Premier League fixture between the sides saw Arsenal come out on top 5-1 at Emirates Stadium last season. Gabriel Martinelli scored first for the Gunners in the 27th minute with a penalty. Eddie Nketiah, Cédric Soares, Gabriel Magalhães, and Martin Ødegaard also were on target. Donny van de Beek scored the only goal for the Toffees in the 48th minute.

Visitors Arsenal have been thankful to Ødegaard, Bukayo Saka, and Martinelli, who have scored eight, seven, and seven times, respectively.

Demarai Gray and Dwight McNeil have caught the eye for Everton this season. Gray is the side’s top scorer with three goals. Nearly as impressive, McNeil has scored two times.

Hosts Everton have secured eight points (W2 D2 L6) from a possible 30 on offer in 10 Premier League contests at Goodison Park this season. The Toffees are looking to reverse a four-match home losing streak dating to November 2022 against Leicester City. Arsenal boast a fine away record this season with eight wins, one draw, and just one loss in league matches away from home. The Gunners will be out to extend a seven-match away unbeaten streak (W6 D1 L0). They haven’t been defeated away since September 2022 against Manchester United.

In their last six league matches, Everton have drawn once and lost five. Arsenal, meanwhile, have won five and drawn once in their last six.
