And that is in part due to Manchester City’s failure to win at Everton on Monday night which handed the Gunners a provisional five-point advantage.
Meanwhile, West Ham are fighting for their Premier League survival after slipping back into the bottom three following last weekend’s 3-0 defeat at Brentford and Tottenham’s victory at Aston Villa.
Regardless of the outcome at the London Stadium this weekend, Nuno Espirito Santo’s side will be hoping in-form Leeds can lend them a hand when they travel to Tottenham on Monday night.

West Ham v Arsenal team news
Arsenal boss Arteta is hoping Jurrien Timber will be available to return against West Ham or at least feature in the title run-in.
The right-back has missed the last ten games through injury but is expected to make a full return in time for the Champions League final at the end of the month.
Arteta is also hoping Mikel Merino will make his comeback from a stress fracture in his foot before the end of the domestic campaign.
West Ham have a relatively clean bill of health with former Gunners goalkeeper Lukasz Fabianski the only absentee with a persistent lower back problem.
West Ham vs Arsenal: Title implications and prediction
Arsenal know they are just three wins away from ending their 22-game Premier League title drought.

Victory at West Ham would keep them in the ascendancy going into next weekend’s visit of relegated Burnley.
However, a draw at the London Stadium would provide Manchester City with a huge title boost despite having a game in hand over Arteta’s side.
Defeat on Sunday, would put the title race back in Manchester City’s hands providing Pep Guardiola’s side take three points against Brentford on Saturday.
It is unlikely to be a straightforward task for Arsenal with West Ham fighting for their lives
Score Prediction: 2-2
