With the Premier League title well out of reach for the Gunners, Arsene Wenger’s men travel to Goodison Park to take on an in form Everton side who have recorded four consecutive wins now. Arsenal know that their opponents are just four points behind with a game in hand for their quest for a Champions League berth.
While the Toffees romped to a convincing 3-1 win over Fulham last weekend, Arsenal showed great resilience to come back and snatch a point against Manchester City at the Emirates. The London side can ill afford a failure on Sunday, one meaning which their own hopes to play in Europe’s elite competition will take a serious beating. Can the Gunners stop the Everton juggernaut at Merseyside in the match of the Gameweek and what would be Wenger’s strongest possible lineup against Martinez’s high flying side?

Strongest Arsenal lineup to face Everton
Goalkeeper:
Wojciech Szczesny will face a stern test from Everton’s attacking prowess with the likes of Barkley, Mirallas, Naismith and Lukaku carrying significant threats. The Polish number one will surely have to play out of his skin to keep at bay an Everton side who are riding high and full of confidence going into the business end of the season. Szczesny needs to make sure he can is well marshaled at the back as a loss here would give impetus to Everton for a strong finish in the season.
