The Gunners are eight points apart at the top of the Premier League table. But Manchester City can shorten the gap to 5 with a victory over Chelsea here. Arsenal are 11 points ahead of fifth-placed Tottenham Hotspur, meaning Mikel Arteta’s side will almost certainly be in the top four this season.
Collymore told Caught Offside: “We’re not just talking about Arsenal upsetting the top four, obviously, it would be a disaster if they don’t finish in the top 4 this season, but maybe there are two or three other teams that don’t qualify for the Champions League.”
Arsenal narrowly lost their place in the Champions League last season.
Even the most pessimistic Arsenal fans certainly cannot imagine them going from a Premier League title challenger to falling out of the top four at the end of the season, knowing anything in football. can happen.
Arteta is without Gabriel Jesus, they are still coping well with this but Mikel Arteta will have a difficult time if there are more injuries.
