Arsenal's Champions League odds: Premier League betting latest as Mikel Arteta still eyes top five finish


Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta believes the Gunners are still involved in the Champions League race after beating Wolves, but knows there is no margin for error down the run-in.

Arsenal secured an impressive 2-0 win at Wolves that put a huge dent in Nuno Espirito Santo's side's chances and also kept Arteta's men just about in the picture.

They're now in seventh place in the table, eight points behind Chelsea in fourth with five games to go, but just six points off Manchester United in fifth which is currently the final Champions League place with Man City's ban.

Leicester are next up for Arsenal, and with a positive result there they'd not only improve their own chances but reel the Foxes in further after their slump.

and bag what currently is the final Champions League spot, but they've got a tough week coming up.


Arsenal's remaining fixtures

  • Leicester (H)
  • Tottenham (A)
  • Liverpool (H)
  • Aston Villa (A)
  • Watford (H)

Brendan Rodgers' side enjoyed a welcome win against Crystal Palace on Saturday but they're still just a point above Chelsea and three above United as the race for Europe really hots up.

"Every game you have no margin for error, we know that we try to win every game," said Arteta.

"We've got some momentum getting into a crucial stage of the season where we are going to face the top teams in the next two weeks.
