We expect the trend to continue for the rest of December.<\/p>\n<p>They started the month with a 1-1 draw with Fulham. They will now face Bournemouth (December 5), Chelsea (December 8), Southampton (December 15), Liverpool (December 22), Nottingham Forest (December 26), and Wolverhampton Wanderers (December 29). We are backing Spurs to beat Chelsea and hold Liverpool to a draw, but the away tie at Southampton could prove to be tricky.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Our prediction<\/strong>: 13 points for Tottenham Hotspur.<\/p>\n<h2>#4 Arsenal \u2014 314 Points<\/h2>\n<figure id=\"attachment_575729\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-575729\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" title=\"Arsenal Manager Mikel Arteta Champions League\" alt=\"Arsenal Manager Mikel Arteta Is Eager to Win Premier League Title\" width=\"555\" height=\"313\"   data-old-src=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns='http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg'%20viewBox='0%200%20555%20313'%3E%3C\/svg%3E\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sportslens.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Arsenal-Manager-Mikel-Arteta-Champions-League-555x313.jpeg 555w, https:\/\/sportslens.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Arsenal-Manager-Mikel-Arteta-Champions-League-364x205.jpeg 364w, https:\/\/sportslens.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Arsenal-Manager-Mikel-Arteta-Champions-League-24x14.jpeg 24w, https:\/\/sportslens.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Arsenal-Manager-Mikel-Arteta-Champions-League-36x20.jpeg 36w, https:\/\/sportslens.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Arsenal-Manager-Mikel-Arteta-Champions-League.jpeg 696w\" src=\"https:\/\/sportslens.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Arsenal-Manager-Mikel-Arteta-Champions-League-555x313.jpeg\"><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-575729\">Arsenal Manager Mikel Arteta Needs to Deliver in December<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Championship contenders Arsenal is in fourth place, having snatched 314 points from 179 games since the Premier League came into being in the 1992-93 season.<\/p>\n<p>The North Londoners have not been as clinical as they should have been, but they are still in the running for the title. They are currently in second place in the standings after amassing 25 points from 13 matches, sitting nine points behind leaders Liverpool.<\/p>\n<p>Arsenal have a decent set of fixtures to deal with in December, with them facing Manchester United (December 4), Fulham (December 8), Everton (December 14), Crystal Palace (December 21), and Ipswich Town (December 27). The United clash is easily the most high profile, but we believe it will be a straightforward win for them in that game.

The Blues have amassed 25 points from 13 games so far and are in third place in the top-flight rankings.<\/p>\n<p>The Pensioners kicked December off with a 3-0 win over Aston Villa. They will next face Southampton (December 4), Tottenham Hotspur (December 8), Brentford (December 15), Everton (December 22), Fulham (December 26), and Ipswich Town (December 30).
