Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta is banking on a favorable run of fixtures and a gradually improving injury situation to reignite the club’s Premier League title hopes, according to Metro.
The Gunners currently trail the top of the table by nine points and entered the November international break on the back of a four-game winless streak, raising questions about their consistency.
Key injuries, including the absence of captain Martin Odegaard, have hindered Arsenal’s momentum in the early stages of the season.
Adding to their challenges, they have faced a demanding schedule, with tough away fixtures against Tottenham, Newcastle United, Manchester City, and Chelsea in their opening 11 matches.

Mikel Arteta Hints at Arsenal’s Comeback
Speaking ahead of their clash with Nottingham Forest on Saturday, Mikel Arteta highlighted the uneven challenges teams face during the season.
“There is so much quality with a lot of teams, but it is true that teams have had very different schedules, and that is a very important thing,” Arteta noted.
“Teams have had various contexts and difficulties than others, but after 18, 20, 25 games we will see where everybody is. Hopefully, we are going to be there.”
With a lighter schedule and key players returning, Arteta will be hoping his side can regain their form and reestablish themselves in the title race.
