Arsenal hosts promoted Ipswich Town in the Premier League looking to leapfrog both Chelsea and Nottingham Forest and move to second place in the table.
Arsenal sit nine points behind Liverpool coming into the tie, though the gap could be as big as 12 given Liverpool have a game in hand. The Gunners have to take their title charge game by game considering Bukayo Saka will miss multiple weeks with a hamstring injury suffered against Crystal Palace last time out.
Though, it might not be all doom and gloom for Mikel Arteta. Gabriel Jesus's apparent resurgence with five goals Arsenal's last two games might give the manager the perfect option at the perfect time. The Brazilian should start in Saka's spot looking to end 2024 with three points.
Here's how Arsenal's lineup could look against Kieran McKenna's Ipswich Town the day after Boxing Day.
