Arsenal take on Sunderland in Premier League action.

Sunderland manager David Moyes

Arsenal will be absolutely desperate for three points in their upcoming fixture against Southampton, as the club look to keep up the chase on Manchester City, with the race for fourth place not yet over.

Arsenal fans have had to endure a frustrating season this year, as tensions have risen between parts of the Gunners fan base towards long-serving manager, Arsene Wenger. Arsenal will be taking some good form into this game however, after winning their last three games. Their previous fixture resulted in a 1-4 win away at Stoke City.

Sunderland fans will be willing this season to just hurry up and end, and their upcoming match against Arsenal could well be a case of damage limitation. The Black Cats were the first Premier League side to be relegated this season, and are currently on course to finish rock bottom.

David Moyes will be looking to restore some pride in his players against Arsenal, and take some good form into next season. Top scorer Jermain Defoe will be hoping to potentially put himself in the shop window with a few goals, as the striker looks to be alive any hopes of making the England squad.
