15th place Arsenal will host Chelsea, who are sitting fifth in the log, while Leicester city will welcome in-form Manchester United in the Boxing premier league fixtures.
Arsenal are struggling with forms, with their last league game also ended in defeat at Everton.
Manager Mikel Arteta has insisted that he’s not considering a walkaway from the team, except he’s sacked by the management. One of his main assignment is to get the best from his talisman, Pierre Emerick-Aubameyang.
On the other side, Frank Lampard must ensure that his team are at their too level to maintain their title contention this season.
Chelsea’s season has been full of ups and downs, as the team has lost consistency. Timo Werner has played 9 matches without finding the back of the net for the London side.
In another encounter, Leicester have not won their Boxing day fixtures since their return to the top flight except in 2018 against Manchester City.
United have been better on the road than at Old Trafford this season, winner 11 consecutive away fixtures in all competitions.
