It's getting a little bit awkward for Arsenal as they travel to Bournemouth for the very first away fixture against the Premier League newcomers. The Gunners were held to a 0-0 draw by Southampton on Tuesday and they are now down to fourth in the table and five points behind the leaders. By the time this game begins that might be eight if Leicester can win at Manchester City on Saturday or at least six if they draw. Arsenal have gone four league games without a win with just three points from those games. That's nowhere near enough if they want to come anywhere near winning the title this season. Away form for Arsenal has been a bit of a worry too with two points from the last three on their travels and six from the last six. They take on a Bournemouth side that are doing their level best to prevent an immediate return to the Championship after their promotion last season. They start the weekend in 15th place and seven points above the relegation zone.Midweek saw them win at Crystal Palace 2-1 and that's three games unbeaten. However, take a look at who they've been playing. Those three results were against Norwich, Sunderland and Palace, all out of form.  Bournemouth have already lost at home to Spurs and West Ham this season, Aston Villa and Newcastle won there too and I think that Arsenal can get their season back on track with a win here.
