Who is Arsenal‘s game in hand against? And when does it take place? Many have wondered after the Gunners slipped to second in the Premier League.
Mikel Arteta has overseen a concerning run of three Premier League outings without a victory, which has allowed Manchester City to claw back some ground in the title race and join the Gunners on 51 points.
However, Arsenal have a chance to gain three points on the Citizens as they have a game in hand.
So, who is Arsenal’s game in hand against and when does it take place? Let’s take a look…
Who is Arsenal’s game in hand against?
Well, there are no easy fixtures in the Premier League, although Arsenal’s game in hand could have been worse.
The Gunners welcome Everton to the Emirates Stadium in what is a rescheduled fixture, as the original meeting between the pair was postponed due to the death of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II back in September.
It was originally due to take place on Saturday 10th September 2022.
When do Arsenal play their game in hand?
Arsenal’s game in hand falls on Wednesday 1st March, with kick-off commencing at 19:45 GMT.
Liverpool and Wolves will also be taking part in a rescheduled fixture that evening as the Old Gold travel to Anfield.
Of course, the Gunners have only recently suffered a 1-0 defeat to Everton, so Arsenal fans will be concerned about not taking advantage of their game in hand.
However, with all due respect to the Toffees, they are 18th in the Premier League at the time of writing, so this is certainly a winnable game for Arsenal if they apply themselves appropriately.
Hopefully, the Gunners can take advantage of this opportunity against Sean Dyche’s men, and get revenge for their 1-0 defeat at Goodison Park.
