Arsenal's next five fixtures compared to Premier League title race rivals after Inter Milan

Arsenal suffered back-to-back defeats for the first time this season as they lost 1-0 to Inter Milan in the UEFA Champions League on Wednesday night.

It's the Gunners' first defeat in the competition this season after they won two of their first three games before the trip to Italy. Hakan Calhanoglu's first-half penalty was the difference after Mikel Merino was penalised for handball.

Mikel Arteta's men threw everything at the Serie A champions but were unable to find a leveller. The defeat comes just four days after Saturday's 1-0 defeat to Newcastle United, meaning they have failed to score in their last two games.

The north Londoners must now turn their attention to Sunday's London derby with Chelsea. The Blues have improved under Enzo Maresca and currently find themselves above Arsenal in the Premier League table.

A tricky run of fixtures awaits Arteta's men after the defeat in Italy. With that being said, football.london has looked at the upcoming games and how they compare to their title rivals.

Nott'm Forest (H) - Premier League - Saturday, November 23

Back on home soil - after four successive away days - Arsenal will be delighted to return to the Emirates Stadium. Nottingham Forest have enjoyed a spectacular start to the Premier League season; defeating Nuno Espirito Santo's side has proven to be no mean feat.

Sporting CP (A) - Champions League - Tuesday, November 26

Unfortunately for the Gunners, they're back on the road. While Sporting might be without Manchester United-bound Ruben Amorim by then, the Portuguese outfit still have Viktor Gyokeres in their armoury - and he's been firing them in once again this season.

West Ham (A) - Premier League - Saturday, November 30

Surprise, surprise... Arsenal have another away day! With so many fixtures in the calendar, Arteta will be expected to heavily rotate his side. The festive period could be the perfect opportunity for the likes of star youngster, Ethan Nwaneri, to establish himself in the starting line-up.

Man United (H) - Premier League - Wednesday, December 4

December starts with Arsenal taking on a new-look United with Ruben Amorim. The Gunners have enjoyed plenty of success against the Red Devils in recent years but there is high expectation at Old Trafford with the new head coach. By the time they visit the Emirates Stadium, they could be a fierce competitor.
