Arsenal analysis: Gunners maintain fine away form

This match was a fourth on the road for Arsenal in all competitions and the Gunners again showed they are going to be hard to stop whoever they face.

Even more impressive was the fact they have remained unbeaten in all those matches with wins against Chelsea, Portsmouth and Inter Milan. A point at Nottingham Forest, although disappointing at the time, still saw them stretch their lead at the top of the Premier League to seven points.

Boss Mikel Arteta has been able to rotate his squad through this period with seven changes in Milan, three at Forest and eight for the Carabao Cup semi-final match at Chelsea - such is the depth at his disposal this season.

He will need his squad to stay fit as they get into the business end of the season but it looks as though things are starting to fall into place for him.

Gabriel Jesus, starting just his third game this term after returning from an 11-month absence with an anterior cruciate ligament, also looked sharp.

His two goals ended a run of 10 Champions League games without scoring - the last one coming in November 2023 against Lens - while fellow forward Viktor Gyokeres boosted his confidence with a goal.

With Kai Havertz building his fitness after returning from a knee injury, being able to call on forwards who can get goals will be crucial for Arteta's side in their quest for a trophy.
