Arsenal will be bidding to return to winning ways on Saturday afternoon when they head to struggling Everton in the Premier League.

Mikel Arteta's side will enter this contest off the back of a 1-0 defeat to Manchester City in the fourth round of the FA Cup last Friday.

The Gunners have won their last two in the Premier League against Tottenham Hotspur and Manchester United, though, and they currently sit five points clear of second-placed Man City at the top of the table, with a game in hand on Pep Guardiola's side.
