Arsenal targets extended Premier League lead against Luton Town in key clash; Here's where and when to watch it
Arsenal, perched atop the Premier League table, aims to solidify their dominance as they face Luton Town. Their victory over Wolverhampton Wanderers propelled them into the top spot, and they're eager to maintain this position as they confront Luton, who have defied preseason expectations by steering clear of the relegation zone.
The Gunners are on an impressive winning streak of five consecutive victories across various competitions after their sole defeat against Newcastle on November 4.
Conversely, Luton faces the risk of slipping into the bottom three, standing only two points ahead of Everton and Burnley.
This encounter marks the first top-tier meeting between the two clubs in over three decades. The Arsenal squad, under Mikel Arteta's guidance, approaches this challenge at Kenilworth Road, a venue that has proven to be a formidable ground for larger Premier League sides this season.
Luton, managed by Rob Edwards, remains resilient despite injury woes.
Captain Tom Lockyer's recent setback adds to their list of concerns, with Teden Mengi and Alfie Doughty already absent, and Albert Sambi Lokonga ineligible due to recovery. Arsenal, while missing key players like Thomas Partey and Emile Smith Rowe, retains a strong lineup with Takehiro Tomiyasu being a potential concern due to a calf issue.
As both teams brace for this clash, Luton seeks to defy the odds and prove their mettle, while Arsenal aims to widen their lead and maintain their winning momentum.
