Arsenal return to Premier League action on Saturday afternoon when they square off against Brentford at the Emirates Stadium.
Last weekend, the Gunners had no fixture as a result of Chelsea competing at the Club World Cup, and it has left the club sitting in sixth place in the standings.
However, with games in hand and having recently edged out newfound rivals Wolverhampton Wanderers in their last outing, Mikel Arteta will be confident of strengthening their bid for Champions League qualification.
