Arsenal will face off Everton at the Emirates Stadium in the Premier League matchday 33 on Friday. The kick-off is at 21:00 CET.

Preview

The Gunners withdrew from the European Super League just two days after signing up for the new breakaway tournament on Sunday but that fact hardly changes anything for Mikel Arteta's men in terms of their goals in the 2020/21 season. Arsenal have picked up 46 points from 32 games in the league this term so far and now sit in ninth in the table. The North London club, however, were held to a narrow home draw by Fulham last weekend and now will be looking to return to winning ways against out-of-form Everton.

As mentioned, the Toffees have endured a poor run of results over the past few weeks as Carlo Ancelotti's side are on a six-game streak without a win across all competitions right now, including a 2-2 draw with Tottenham last Friday. Despite their below-par form lately, Everton are still one place and three points ahead of their forthcoming opponents with a game in hand.

Team news

Arsenal's highest earner Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang is still unavailable after contracting malaria while Alexandre Lacazette, David Luiz and Kieran Tierney are all out with injury. Abdoulaye Doucoure, Jean-Philippe Gbamin, Fabian Delph, Yerry Mina and Bernard, in turn, won't help the Toffees in the English capital for the same reason.

Prediction

Even though Everton haven't recorded a single victory in their last six games on the bounce, Ancelotti's side will have a perfect opportunity to break the unwanted trend on Friday as the hosts will be without their two best goalscorers Aubameyang and Lacazette this time around. Moreover, the Toffees boast a record of nine wins in 15 away PL games this seaosn while the Gunners have won just six out of their 16 league matches at the Emirates this term. Therefore, we wouldn't be surprised if Ancelotti beats Arsenal again after a 2-1 victory over Arteta's men at the Goodison in December.
