Arsenal’s 2022/23 Premier League season gets underway with an all-London match-up against Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park on Friday, August 5.
The Gunners’ first home game pits them against Leicester City on Matchday 2 before back-to-back meetings with newly-promoted Bournemouth and Fulham.
Mikel Arteta’s men will hope to get the new season off to a better start than the one before, having lost all three opening outings without scoring last term.
Despite picking themselves up from an abysmal start to get their 2021/22 campaign off and running, Arsenal narrowly missed out to Tottenham Hotspur in the race for the top four.
Arteta now has his sights set on guiding the Gunners to their first top-four Premier League finish since 2015/16.
To achieve that, the Spaniard is already making rapid strides to reinforce his squad by acquiring the services of Leeds United’s Raphinha, as per The Sun.
