Arsenal will be aiming to record a fifth straight league success and extend their lead at the top of the table when they welcome Hull City to the Emirates this afternoon.
The champions moved three points clear with a battling 1-0 victory over Liverpool at Anfield on Sunday and are starting to look well set to win back-to-back Premier League titles for the first time in their history.
In contrast, it is all about survival for Hull City who enjoyed a superb start to life back in the top-flight, but are now without a win since they started the campaign with back-to-back successes against Manchester United and Coventry City.
