"While there is still plenty of mileage left in this season's Premier League title race, Arsenal remain favorites to hoist the trophy aloft and end their 22-year wait to be champions of England once more. Heading into this weekend's games in the middle of January, the Gunners are six points clear of Manchester City and Aston Villa with 21 matches played, having topped the table after every round of fixtures since the start of October."
"Indeed, they are comfortably outperforming their title rivals when it comes to racking up goals from dead-ball situations such as free kicks and corners, as well as own goals. So far, Arsenal have scored 24 goals from set pieces in all competitions this season -- the most by any team in Europe's top five leagues. During Wednesday's Carabao Cup clash at Chelsea, they scored their 18th goal from a corner of the 2025-26 campaign."
Arsenal sit six points clear of Manchester City and Aston Villa after 21 Premier League matches and have topped the table after every round since early October. The team has won 15 league games, more than any other side, and scored 40 league goals, the second-highest total in the division. Arsenal drew 0-0 with Liverpool in their last league match but remain favorites to win the title and end a 22-year wait. Arsenal have scored 24 goals from set pieces in all competitions, including 18 from corners, and 14 Premier League set-piece goals, accounting for 35% of their league goals.
