Arsenal can temporarily go back to the top of the Premier League if they claim all three points against Stoke City at the Emirates Stadium this weekend. Bet on Arsenal vs Stoke City with PaddyPower after reading our preview..

The Gunners lost 1-0 to Man United on Monday and surrendered their spot at the top of the Premier League. With United only playing on Sunday, Arsenal can reclaim top spot with a win over Stoke.

Arsenal failed to reproduce their usual fluid game against United and had few chances of note. Young Polish keeper Wojciech Szczesny is again likely to stand under the sticks with Manuel Almunia and Lukasz Fabianski both out injured. Szczesny made his first Premier League start of the new season against United and put in a more than decent performance against the Red Devils.

Samir Nasri has been in tremendous form for Arsenal recently, especially at the Emirates. In his last six home games for Arsenal, he has netted a total of six times.

Arsenal form- last five games- most recent first- Arsenal scorers in brackets-

Man United 1-0 Arsenal
Arsenal 3-1 Partizan Belgrade ( Robin Van Persie, Theo Walcott, Samir Nasri)
Arsenal 2-1 Fulham ( Samir Nasri
