They've taken the top spot - Arsenal vs Hull City

Erdem Cürgen 05 November 2026

Arsenal, who began the Premier League season as reigning champions but found themselves two points behind Manchester City after seven matchdays, beat Everton at home and then Liverpool away, whilst the only team ahead of them, Manchester City, first lost away to Aston Villa and then at home to Brighton & Hove Albion. Having closed the gap to six points over two weeks, the Gunners became the new leaders, three points clear at the top. With their rivals experiencing changes in management, squad and generation, as well as facing crises, Arteta's side - who had long awaited the title and are determined not to let it slip away this season either - did not neglect to bring home three points from Prague, the capital of the Czech Republic, in their midweek Champions League fixture. The red-and-whites, who are set to host newly promoted Hull City this week, could be in for a celebratory weekend.

They've made a good start to the league

Having surprisingly finished 6th last season and secured promotion via the play-offs, Hull City have made a strong return to the top flight after a long absence, picking up six points from their first two matches. The orange-and-blacks, who have 8 points after four weeks, have only lost two matches despite failing to win in the last seven weeks, despite their strong start. Having drawn five of their last seven league matches - effectively turning into the 'draw specialists' - there is little need to elaborate on the importance of securing a single point away against the league leaders for Jakirovic's side. This season, Hull have remained unbeaten in their matches against the 'Big Six' - beating Manchester United and drawing with Chelsea. If you want to see what the Tigers are capable of at the Emirates, as they look to make a fresh push to maintain their position despite having lost a tough match, don't miss this fixture.

Arsenal, who have suffered strange points drops at home in seasons where they've missed out on the title, do not want to find themselves in a similar situation this season. It would be no exaggeration to say that, for them, the aim is victory in every home match, even if the opposition is Manchester City or Liverpool.
