The Gunners are currently experiencing a disastrous run in Premier League and things got worse when they threw their two-goal lead against Crystal Palace on October 27, 2019. The North London side have just been successful in two of their last five Premier League clashes and are currently four points behind Chelsea in the top-four race.
