Why This Match Matters
• Arsenal sit two points behind leaders Manchester City on the final Premier League weekend; victory keeps Mikel Arteta’s side in the title conversation pending City’s result.
• Southampton, already safe from relegation, can finish as high as 12th with a win—an impressive return after last year’s promotion.
• Both clubs are chasing milestones: Bukayo Saka needs one goal for 20 in all competitions; Saints captain James Ward-Prowse is one free-kick away from equalling David Beckham’s league record.

• Doubts: Gabriel Jesus (hamstring); Timber (ACL) ruled out.
Tactical Talking Points
Arsenal’s inverted full-back system funnels possession through Declan Rice, allowing Ødegaard to operate between the lines. Southampton will likely press high, trying to isolate Zinchenko and spring counter-attacks through Kamaldeen Sulemana’s pace. Set pieces loom large: Ward-Prowse versus Arsenal’s zonal marking could decide momentum.
Key Battles to Watch
• Ward-Prowse vs Rice: Midfield tempo and dead-ball threat.
• Bella-Kotchap vs Nketiah: Physical duel that shapes Arsenal’s penalty-box presence.
• Sulemana vs White: Wide speed against disciplined positioning.
Match Prediction
Arsenal’s superior depth and motivation should edge a tricky away test, but Saints’ home resilience and free-kick proficiency suggest goals at both ends. Predicted score: Southampton 1-2 Arsenal.
