Contending team Arsenal FC (2-1-1, 7 points) is scheduled to host winless squad Stoke City FC (0-2-2, 2 points) at the Emirates Stadium on Saturday, September 12 as the 2015-2016 Premier League season resumes.
Arsenal settled for a 1-0 victory over Newcastle United during their last game on August 29 at St. James' Park as the ball bounced off Magpies' captain Fabricio Coloccini for an own goal from a power shot by Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain at the 52nd-minute mark, via Bleacher Report.
Manager Arsene Wenger was still somewhat dissatisfied about his wards' offensive showing as it was only the third goal of the season for the Gunners after four games. Two of their goals so far are own goals.
With the summer transfer window already closed, the 65-year-old French coach would have to wait till January to snag new offensive weapons and boost Arsenal's firepower.
Mark Hughes' men have yet to score their first win of the season after losses to Liverpool and West Brom and draws against Tottenham and Norwich City.
The Potters fell to the Baggies, 0-1, during week 4 at their home turf of Britannia Stadium as Venezuelan striker Salomón Rondón headed a winner minutes before the first half ended, as per BBC Sport.
Two Stoke midfielders, Ibrahim Afellay and Charlie Adam, were sent off in the game by referee Michael Oliver.
The predicted result is a 1-0 victory for the Gunners. Wenger's squad will continue to bleed for goals while Hughes' will still be winless after five outings.
