NOR vs ARS Dream11: Gunners resume their run to the top four with fan-favourite Freddie Ljungberg, The Swedish International has taken charge of his beloved club until further notice.
After a decent start to the Premier League this season, Arsenal somehow managed to lose their track under Unai Emery. The situation at the Arsenal camp was deteriorating as they failed to win a single match in November 2019, the last victory that came Arsenal’s way was on the 6th of October 2019 in the English Premier League against AFC Bournemouth. Showing no disrespect to the opponents, Arsenal would be happy to face Norwich City to set the EPL campaign back on track.
On the other hand the hosts must be feeling relieved by ending their losing streak against Everton last week. With 9 loses out of 13 games Norwich CIty find themselves at the bottom of the table in the relegation zone. Norwich would heavily depend on Teemu Pukki and Todd Cantwell to see off the vulnerable visitors. They made a decent start to the season by winning a few games which no one expected them to win.
The Gunners are vulnerable and Norwich City who have already caused an upset against Man City this season would be hoping to relish their opportunity to add some points against their name. Arsenal on the other hand can be tested yet again on an away game fixture.

NOR vs ARS Dream11 Goalkeeper
With 2 clean sheets and 47 saves Tim Krul has been tested by almost all the sides he started against this season. Norwich City’s position on the table doesn’t reflect Krul’s performances, with his acrobatics he has always managed to keep his side in the game.
NOR vs ARS Dream11 Defenders
Kieran Tierney and Hector Bellerin would be starting for the first time in the EPL this season, having a similar style of play a lot of crosses would be expected for the Gunners from the two defenders. The pace that they generate on the pitch can be lethal for any opposition.
Christoph Zimmermann comes in mainly to balance the defenders quota and the credit balance. Given the flexibility I would have selected Ben Godfrey.
*EDIT : As Bellerin and Tierney are not playing, we are going with Cambers and kolasinac.
NOR vs ARS Dream11 Midfielders
Todd Cantwell and Kenny McLean have been in a decent touch for the hosts, collectively they have scored 4 goals, assisted 3 goals and completed 924 passes for Norwich City this season. I have selected them as they are the two game controllers for the hosts,
Mesut Ozil and Matteo Guendouzi are the two game makers for the Gunners. Ozil definitely was missing his flair this season, but I am sure the recent changes in the management will allow him to forget the past and play freely.
NOR vs ARS Dream 11 Forwards
The forwards are the real powerhouse of the game. Teemu Pukki has played a Talismanic role for the hosts this season, the Finn striker has netted the ball on 6 occasions and assisted with 3 goals. I strongly feel that Pukki is the go to man for the hosts to penetrate the vulnerable Arsenal defensive unit.
Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and Alexander Lacazette have scores 12 times collectively for the Gunners in the EPL. Freddie Ljungberg and I both expect the two forwards to score on Sunday.
