Manchester City's win against Tottenham on Tuesday evening moved them above Mikel Arteta's side and up to 88 points before their clash against West Ham this Sunday. Arsenal, meanwhile, welcome Everton to Emirates Stadium needing City to drop points in order to win the league.
With all of that being said, Arsenal face a decisive number of sessions to prepare for this weekend's high-stakes clash. Here, football.london takes a look at everything spotted from their latest training session which took place in familiar surroundings.
As was the case in the lead up to the Gunners travelling to Old Trafford, Saka was not seen in training but he still started that weekend and that will likely be the case again. Arsenal will certainly need their star man fit if they aim to record another victory with the hope it could be enough to win the title.
Maybe one reason for exactly that has been the decision to train at Emirates Stadium ahead of home games that weekend, with that action taken again. Before fixtures against Crystal Palace and Aston Villa, Arsenal have trained on their own patch with Arteta clearly of the belief it could make a difference on matchday, despite his side being beaten by the latter earlier this year.
Odegaard joy
On several occasions from the latest training session, club captain Martin Odegaard was captured full of joy and happiness.
After being pictured celebrating by himself with his arms lifted up, the Norway international was then also seen high-fiving Reiss Nelson with a huge smile on his face. Odegaard, particularly in the second half of the season, has been sensational and will undoubtedly continue to be a pillar of Arteta's project after penning a new deal late last year.
