No Dow-ubt About it Against Brighton
Cup competitions are a hard one to navigate for Arsenal. They haven't won enough trophies over the years to not take every single one seriously and the EFL Cup (Carabao Cup) is no different in my eyes. The smallest of the four accolades, but a trophy in every sense of the word. It's also the first one you can win and getting that winning feeling in March could do wonders for the latter stages of our campaign. The lack of trophies is the blotch on Arteta's resume that he'd really like to start removing and that can start with the EFL Cup.

Conservative Against Crystal Palace
Arsenal had the opportunity to extend their lead over Liverpool to seven points due to the Merseyside club losing to Brentford on Saturday night. The Gunners, in the past, struggle to capitalise on the downfall of their rivals. However, it's a different Arsenal side this season and a side that are seemingly hell bent on restoring glory to an old giant of the game. Crystal Palace stood in their way and that's a scary sight these days. In recent times the south London side have got the better of us on more than one occasion, in fact only last season we settled for a 2-2 draw at the Emirates. Oliver Glasner has taken them from strength to strength even since that result in April. They've picked up an FA Cup and Community Shield and embarked on a 17 game unbeaten run that only ended a couple of weeks ago. Mikel Arteta has his work cut out and this wasn't helped by concerns amongst the squad that Gabriel and Bukayo Saka might not make the game. Thankfully they did and Arteta could use the strongest starting XI at his disposal.

Awesome against Atletico
Arsenal have been in brilliant form as of late. Winning games, keeping clean sheets and scoring goals. But, only enough goals to win the game, not enough to encapsulate the level of domination we inflict on our opponents. The Champions League has seen our form marry up with what we've produced in the Premier League. Athletic Bilbao were kept at arms length as we beat them 2-0 and then our old nemesis Olympiacos were seen off with a 2-0. Atletico Madrid are by far our toughest opponents yet, but they came to an Emirates stadium, that had no hot water, and is a fortress for us. Spanish teams have struggled against us in recent times, so another Spanish scalp was on the agenda.
