Where is Arsenal's 22–23 season heading?

Arsenal have recorded three consecutive draws in the PL following their disappointing 3-3 stalemate against the PL's bottom-placed club, Southampton. Like Benfica and Napoli, Arsenal are enduring a poor run of form at the business end of the season, which is the worst time to hit a lean patch. 

Although Arsenal lead Man City by five points, City have two games in hand and a face-off against the league leaders at Etihad. It's an advantage to City. Man City's domestic form in the business end of the recent seasons have been tremendous, and no one more than Jurgen Klopp has suffered because of it. If you ask Klopp the question in the title of the article, he would say it's heading towards a heartbreaking end.

To make matters worse, Arsenal's last six opponents are Man City, Chelsea, Newcastle United, Brighton, Nottingham Forest, and Wolves. As many as five of the teams have extra motivation to win their match against Arsenal: City for obvious reasons, Newcastle United and Brighton fighting out for the top 4 and top 6 respectively, and Chelsea and Nottingham Forest battling relegation. Wolves have played well against top clubs this season.

Mikel Arteta's men must display their pre-WC form to win the remaining games. Two things that will give the fans hope are that Arsenal still have fate in their hands and Man City have some important UCL and FA Cup games to worry about as well. After having led the PL table for almost the entire season, conceding the lead in the league title race in the final days of the season will hurt Arsenal and their fans. Arsenal have played astonishingly for the majority of the season. If they fail to win the league, they will end the season with no trophy to show for their amazing work.
