Arsenal returns to action in the Premier League this weekend after their midweek League Cup triumph over Brentford. For the Gunners, this game will award them the golden opportunity to build on their confidence and add to their recent winning streak.

The north London side began the season in awful fashion, losing their opening two games against Man City and Chelsea. Since then, however, Emery's men are yet to drop a single point, winning six in a row in all competitions.

While some of those victories were unpretty, they have improved their away form and have moved closer to the top four. Watford holds that last Champions League spot this early in the campaign, but Arsenal could leapfrog them into fourth should they win on Saturday and Tottenham drop points.

In the English top-flight, Arsenal's unbeaten run stretches to four games. This upcoming match will be held at the Emirates Stadium, with Lacazette and Co. keen on capitalizing on the home advantage.

The visitor head into this tie having failed to win their last two Premier League games. After embarking on a four-game perfect start, they were handed their first defeat of the season by Man United, which was followed by a 1-1 draw with Fulham.

The Hornets last match was their League Cup encounter with Tottenham, which they lost on penalties. Fortunately, Watford has received two boosts ahead of the weekend run-in.

Firstly, fears Troy Deeney would miss this fixture have been dashed, as the Englishman is available for selection despite hurting his knee last round. Furthermore, Christian Kabasele's red card in the Carabao Cup has successfully been appealed, meaning he will be back for Saturday.

Arsenal has also received a boost of their own in the form of Sokratis Papastathopoulos's availability. The Greek center-back came off in the 2-0 win over Everton with a dead leg but is fit to return for the Watford clash.

Match facts

  • Watford has been defeated in 15 of their last 16 away games against a top-six side.

  • However, the Hornets have won two of their last three encounters with Arsenal.

  • Those were the only two times the Gunners lost to Watford in their last 10 meetings, winning the other eight.

  • Stopping the north London side from scoring will be difficult, as they have failed to find the back of the net in only two of their last 36 Premier League home games.
