Arsenal missed the opportunity to strengthen their Premier League title challenge following a 2-2 draw at Molineux on Wednesday. The Gunners led 2-1 until the final moments of the match before conceding a late equaliser. Per BBC Sport, the result draws comparisons to the 2007-08 season when a late draw at Birmingham City preceded a decline in form.
Mikel Arteta's side held a five-point lead at the top of the table earlier this month. However, recent results have reduced their advantage over Manchester City. According to Opta, Arsenal have now dropped points in three of their last five league fixtures.
In 2008, a 2-2 draw at St Andrew's saw Arsenal lose their momentum and eventually finish third in the standings. The current squad faces a similar pressure as the title race enters the final months of the campaign. Arsenal travel to face Manchester City in their next away fixture, which could determine the final league positions.
