Arsenal are proving that last season’s surprise title challenge was not a fluke: they are firmly in the race to win the Premier League for the first time in two decades.
The Gunners have been in exceptional form since the turn of the year and head into the final 10 games fractionally ahead of Liverpool and Manchester City at the top of the table, while their recent scoring prowess has boosted their goal difference to a healthier state than that of their closest rivals.
Memories of last season will be difficult to shake off. Mikel Arteta’s side were enjoying a proud position as league leaders until their form fell away in the decisive weeks of the season, a run of two wins in eight games across April and May ultimately allowing City to claim the trophy. Arteta and his players have certainly looked in a confident mood heading into the business end of 2023/24, though.
Here, The Sporting News has a breakdown of Arsenal’s remaining schedule, plus a points prediction for the games they have coming up, based on this season’s form and the result in the same game in 2022/23. Could this be the year they finally get their hands on the trophy for the first time since the ‘Invincibles’ of 2004?

Arsenal prediction for run-in 2023/24: How many points will they get?
Arsenal have some local derby matches still to come, plus a trip to Manchester United on the penultimate day. Here’s a run-down of those fixtures, and a prediction of how many points they might expect to get.
Man City (A): March 31
Arsenal were brushed aside at the Etihad Stadium last season as their title challenge fell away. They’re in better shape now, for sure, but it’s hard to see them leaving Manchester with all three points.
Result last season: Man City 4-1 Arsenal
Prediction this season: Man City 2-2 Arsenal
Luton Town (H): April 3
Luton have put up a commendable fight in their first Premier League season, but this one has a comfortable home win written all over it.
Result last season: N/A
Prediction this season: Arsenal 4-1 Luton Town
Brighton (A): April 6
This game was a six-goal thriller last season and Brighton are still an excellent side on their day, but a gruelling season balancing European commitments has taken its toll, and Arsenal have had joy previously picking off the Seagulls on the break.
Result last season: Brighton 2-4 Arsenal
Prediction this season: Brighton 0-3 Arsenal

Aston Villa (H): April 13
Villa will likely be right in the hunt for the Champions League places by the middle of April, so this game is hugely important to them as well as Arsenal. A draw feels on the cards.
Result last season: Arsenal 2-1 Aston Villa
Prediction this season: Arsenal 1-1 Aston Villa
Wolves (A): April 20
Arsenal won this game fairly comfortably (on the scoreboard) last season, and although Wolves have defied expectations under Gary O’Neil in 2023/24, a repeat feels likely.
Result last season: Wolves 0-2 Arsenal
Prediction this season: Wolves 0-2 Arsenal
Chelsea (H): April 23
Arsenal beat Chelsea comfortably at home last season, and things have not exactly gone great for Mauricio Pochettino’s Blues in 2023/24. However, a traditionally high-scoring derby game like this has the potential to see the Gunners slip up.
Result last season: Arsenal 3-1 Chelsea
Prediction this season: Arsenal 2-2 Chelsea
Tottenham (A): April 27
The big one — and perhaps the day Arsenal’s title challenge ends. Spurs will be fighting for the top four at this stage, making three points hugely valuable, and they would love nothing better than to deal irreparable damage to their north London rivals’ trophy hopes.
Result last season: Tottenham 0-2 Arsenal
Prediction this season: Tottenham 2-1 Arsenal
Bournemouth (H): May 4
Bournemouth lost this game last season thanks to Reiss Nelson’s 97th-minute winner. The Cherries are a more rounded side these days, but it’s tough to see them leaving the Emirates with anything to show for their efforts.
Result last season: Arsenal 3-2 Bournemouth
Prediction this season: Arsenal 2-0 Bournemouth
Man United (A): May 11
United have a strong home record against Arsenal in the Premier League era, but this has been a desperately challenging season under Erik ten Hag. They could well be out of the running for the Champions League places by this point, which would mean further uncertainty around the manager. Arsenal should be too good for them.
Result last season: Man United 3-1 Arsenal
Prediction this season: Man United 1-2 Arsenal
Everton (H): May 19
Everton could still be playing for survival come the final day and will likely throw everything they have at the Gunners. Arteta’s men should still outscore them.
Result last season: Arsenal 4-0 Everton
Prediction this season: Arsenal 3-2 Everton
Arsenal predicted final points tally in 2023/24: 85
