Everton's unbeaten away run since December has sparked concerns for Arsenal's title hopes. The Toffees, managed by David Moyes, have won four of their last five road games, including a 1-0 victory over Newcastle United. Their 39.3% possession average in away matches contrasts sharply with Arsenal's dominance, yet they’ve defended set-pieces flawlessly, conceding none in 59 Premier League away games. BBC Sport highlights Moyes’ tactical discipline as key to disrupting top teams.

Arsenal, leading the league with just one home loss this season, face a daunting trip to Goodison Park. Moyes’ side has historically struggled against the Gunners, with only one win in 29 attempts. However, their resilience against Manchester United and Aston Villa at home this season suggests they can exploit defensive lapses. Leon Osman notes Arsenal’s psychological pressure to maintain an unbeaten streak could backfire.

James Garner has emerged as a revelation, topping Everton’s stats with 365 touches and a defensive-midfield hybrid role. His performances draw comparisons to Declan Rice, with Osman predicting an England call-up. Meanwhile, Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall’s 12th away win since Moyes’ return underscores the team’s consistency. Goalkeeper Jordan Pickford’s record saves further bolster their road success.

Everton’s 7th-place position (five points behind fifth) and Arsenal’s 5th-place (four points ahead of sixth) set up a pivotal clash. A win could propel Moyes’ men into European contention, while a loss might let Manchester City close the gap. As Osman states, "Arsenal will be more worried" entering this high-stakes encounter.
