Arsenal would be in great form when they take on Hull City at the Emirates with Hector Bellerin and Danny Welbeck who’ve been out of the team since last summer are both fit for the clash.
The season is fast turning into yet another trophy less season for Arsene Wenger, the French boss side have taken just three points from their last three games, losing heavily to the league leaders Chelsea in the previous rounds of the competition.
Arsenal have fallen down the pecking order in the last couple of weeks and the north London club are set to face a tricky test this weekend when they welcome Hull City at the Emirates.
Marco Silva’s side have now notched 7 points in their last 4 games against the likes of Manchester United, Liverpool and Chelsea and hoping to put in a similar performance in this game. Arsenal who have lost a bit of form recently will have to be at their best when they take on the Tigers this weekend.
