Arsenal Football Club is set to host Bournemouth this weekend, with their Premier League title ambitions hanging in the balance. After a disappointing exit from domestic cup competitions, the Gunners regained some confidence by winning against Sporting in the Champions League. Currently, Arsenal holds a nine-point lead in the league with seven games remaining, but critics are poised to highlight any missteps. The club's recent history includes a painful near miss in the 2022/23 season, where they led the league for 248 days but ultimately finished as runners-up. This season's title race has seen other clubs, such as Newcastle United in 1995/96 and Liverpool in 2013/14, experience dramatic collapses after leading the table. Arsenal is keen to avoid joining this list of infamous collapses as they seek their first Premier League title in 22 years.
