Five things to look out for vs Southampton

Arsenal go into this game with a brief return of confidence after conflicting results last weekend and in midweek.

Their 3-1 defeat to Manchester United last Saturday showed that they need to be more ruthless with their finishing, as their 12-game winning run came to an end.

Positivity has been reclaimed however after a comfortable 6-0 rout of Bate Borisov in the final Europa League group game.

Southampton come into this game in relatively poor form, only managing to beat the teams around them in what could turn into a troubling time for the Saints.

Arsenal could be in for quite an easy ride, as the Saints have struggled to pick up any points against those around the top end of the Premier League table.

A 3-0 loss to Liverpool and a 2-1 loss to Manchester City will be music to Arsene Wenger’s ears.

Here are five things to look forward to in Sunday’s game.
