Arsenal could leapfrog current Premier League leaders Liverpool at least until Sunday when Mikel Arteta's side play host to Brentford at the Emirates Stadium on Saturday.
The Gunners have picked up seven straight league wins wherein they have scored a staggering 31 goals, conceding just thrice, last handing Sheffield United a 6-0 beating on Monday night.
Whereas after three losses and last weekend's 2-2 draw with Chelsea, Brentford have been heading south of late.
