3. Stoke may trouble Arsenal at the Britannia, but at the Emirates they are nothing
Whenever Arsenal travel to the Potteries they seem to curl up into a ball and very rarely perform up there. At the Emirates however the story is completely different and the Gunners have won seven out of seven games in Premiership history. Stoke have shipped 17 goals in these matches and have only scored 3 themselves, a truly shocking return for a team who are supposed to be Arsenal’s bogey side. It appears Mark Hughes men can do it on a cold, wet and blustery day at the Britannia, however they shrivel into insignificance when they voyage south to North London.
