The recent match between Manchester City and Arsenal which was anticipated to be a thrilling encounter turned out to be a dull affair with only three shots on target. Despite the lack of action, Arsenal ability to stifle City attack and secure a draw showcased their defensive prowess.

This season, Arsenal has emerged as the best defensive team in the Premier League conceding fewer goals than any other side. Their strategy of using four central defenders and employing wingers as auxiliary full-backs has proven effective in preventing opponents from creating scoring opportunities.

Despite their defensive solidity, it remains uncertain whether Arsenal defensive approach will be sufficient to clinch the league title.
