Arsenal currently sit six points behind league leaders Liverpool, with the gap potentially stretching to nine if the Reds win their game in hand against Everton. However, Sagna remains optimistic, urging his former club to stay patient and focused.
He believes that Liverpool will drop points in the final stretch of the season, giving Arsenal a chance to capitalise—especially with a crucial head-to-head fixture still to come.
"Liverpool will drop points. They have difficult games left to play, and I don’t think they will win them all. The most important thing for Arsenal is not to lose touch with Liverpool now. Liverpool have a game in hand, they could be nine points in front of Arsenal by Thursday," he said.
Mikel Arteta's men head into Saturday's clash against Leicester with momentum on their side, following an emphatic 5-1 victory over Manchester City. Arteta has stressed the need to sustain that intensity, highlighting the team’s belief in their ability to compete at the highest level. With a crucial run of fixtures ahead, Arsenal remain firmly in the fight for the Premier League crown.
