The powers that be at the Premier League have served up a tantalising Saturday of football, and all eyes are fixed on the Emirates Stadium where Arsenal must give a good account of themselves against a resilient Newcastle United side. After slipping to second place earlier this week following Manchester City. �s clinical 1. 0 victory over Burnley, the Gunners are summoned to reclaim the lion. �s share of the title advantage. A win here is non negotiable if Mikel Arteta. �s men wish to keep the destiny of the league crown in their own hands. Elsewhere, the FA Cup semi final buildup dominates the conversation, while at the bottom end of the table, Sunderland were handed a 5. 0 thrashing by Nottingham Forest, a result that will surely send tremors through the relegation dogfight. For Arsenal, the task is clear: control possession, feed the Nigerian international forwards who have been formidable in recent weeks, and ensure that the defensive stalwarts remain unbreached. At the end of the day, this is football in its rawest form, a battle of nerves and technique where every boot on the pitch counts. The viewing centres in Surulere and Wuse will be packed to capacity as fans clad in red and white jerseys chant for victory. You will hear the roar when Bukayo Saka cuts inside, the collective groan when a pass goes astray, and the joyous ululation that follows a goal. In Lagos, the atmosphere will be electric, as supporters debate whether this Arsenal side has the stomach to go all the way. It is a contest that promises drama, and at GoalZaza, we shall bring you every twist and turn from the hallowed turf.
