Arsenal are looking to string together back-to-back wins in the Premier League when they take on Ipswich Town next up.

The Gunners take on the Tractor Boys for the first time in the league since 2002 – with the last meeting in all competitions coming back in 2011 in the EFL Cup semi-finals.

While Arsenal still have some fading hopes of winning the Premier League title this season, they have the challenge of relegation-threatened Ipswich to overcome.

Kieran McKenna’s side have just two wins this campaign – against Tottenham and Wolves – but are more than capable of grinding out a stubborn draw.

So with that said, here’s a look at everything you need to know ahead of Arsenal’s clash with Ipswich.
