Picking up steam at the right time as they stalk front-runners Chelsea, Arsenal look to make it four wins on the bounce Tuesday when they face an Everton squad in crisis at Goodison Park.The Gunners (10-4-1) kept pace with their London rivals over the weekend, beating Stoke City 3-1 while the Blues disposed of West Bromwich Albion. Arsenal overcame an early penalty by Charlie Adam as Theo Walcott equalised late in the first half and got goals from Mesut Ozil and Alex Iwobi after the interval.These were the kind of games last season where Arsenal stumbled, dropping points to mid-table teams that eventually scuttled their title hopes. But this time around, after running rampant to ring up 11 goals versus Bournemouth, West Ham United and now the Potters, manager Arsene Wenger thinks his team is in the right frame of mind ahead of this quick turnaround.Look, we were not too bad last year. We finished second in the league. I believe we have improved yes, Wenger said post-match. But we have to show that on a longer term. I believe that we have created confidence. I think we are ambitious -- but what is at stake is to keep urgency levels very high, humility levels very high and togetherness very high.We have to show that in every single game now. Then we will see where we stand.Wenger, though, must shuffle his central defence pairing once more for this match.While Hector Bellerin returned, he did so at the expense of Shkodran Mustafi, who was forced off after 25 minutes due to a hamstring injury. Wenger expects Mustafi to miss at least three weeks, which essentially rules him out of this busy stretch of fixtures until the new year.Arsenal have been ruthless on the road in league play with an impressive 5-2-0 mark while outscoring opponents 18-5. Sanchez has been the centre of nearly all things goal related outside the Emirates, finding the back of the net eight times and assisting on two others.The Chile international, however, has failed to score in four career contests versus Everton.It was the second goal for Iwobi in his last two matches, having also netted against FC Basel in Champions League play. The 20-year-old Nigeria international had not figured on a goal since contributing a pair of assists in a win at Hull City on Sept. 17.Everton (5-5-5) have slipped to ninth in the table, sandwiched between West Bromwich Albion and Southampton on goal difference. The Toffees are 0-2-3 after a 3-2 defeat at Watford on Saturday. While Romelu Lukaku accounted for both goals, Evertons lack of aggression and slack defending provided an escape route the Hornets gratefully took and left manager Ronald Koeman lamenting his teams mental state.We were the dominant team and scored a good goal, but then the problems started, Koeman said. We werent the same in controlling the game, we had bad mistakes in our ball possession and not good communication.The Toffees are 1-4-5 after opening the season with 13 points in their first five contests. Much like last season, defence have been at the core of their struggles -- Everton have produced just one clean sheet in their last 11 games.The struggles have prompted talk Koeman will be very active in the January transfer window as he tries to rebuild the team to his liking. Everton are a veteran-laden squad, and players like Kevin Mirallas and James McCarthy could be on the move next month.And while Lukaku was pleased he ended a five-game goal-scoring drought, he noted Everton must regroup quickly in a pivotal week of matches. After this contest, the Toffees host Liverpool on Dec. 19 as the Merseyside rivals renew ancient hostilities once more.Its going to be difficult (in the next two games) but you play football to have challenges like that, said Lukaku, who has two goals in 10 lifetime matches versus Arsenal, to Evertons official website. It is down to us to step up and make sure we are present on the day.Arsenal did the double over Everton last season, have won three on the bounce between the teams and are unbeaten in the last four (3-1-0). Sanchez had an assist and Iwboi had a goal in last seasons corresponding fixture, a 2-0 Gunners victory.It hasnt been much of a rivalry for the past decade as Arsenal have taken 12 wins in the last 19 matches. Everton have claimed just one. The Gunners are 5-3-1 in their last nine at Goodison Park in Premier League play.

Deandra Dottins power hitting makes her one of the most dangerous batsmen in the world. She has a 38-ball T20 century to her name - it was the first T20 century by a woman - and she is also a handy bowler, taking nine wickets at 13.55 during West Indies WWT20 campaign. It was rising star Hayley Matthews, however, who stole the show in the final at Eden Gardens. The 18-year-old showed poise and power in making 66 off 45 deliveries as the West Indies defeated three-time champions, Australia. Her innings included six boundaries and three sixes. Lancashire wont be lacking in batting firepower. Loughborough LightingEllyse Perry is arguably the biggest star in the womens game, and with good reason. The 25-year-old is already a veteran, with nine years of international cricket under her belt. She was Player-of-the-Series when Australia regained the Ashes in England last summer after making more runs and taking more wickets than any other player. While initially seen more of a bowling allrounder, her batting has been a revelation in recent years. The Lightning also have solid all-round support from the experienced New Zealander Sophie Devine and Englands Georgia Elwiss will step in as captain for the absent Sarah Taylor. Southern VipersIt will be fascinating to see how Vipers captain, Charlotte Edwards, fares in the tournament. Suddenly stripped of the England captaincy at the start of the summer, Edwards has 95 T20Is under her belt and has the chance to prove shes not done yet. She has a couple of formidable New Zealand weapons in her armoury, in Suzie Bates and Sara McGlashan. Bates was recently named the Wisden Womens Cricketer of the Year after an outstanding 2015 as New Zealand captain. The veteran McGlashan was a standout in the WBBL, her explosive batting a key to the Sydney Sixers making the final. Surrey StarsSurrey have one of the most promising line ups in the competition, despite the late withdrawal of Australiian captain, Meg Lanning.dddddddddddd Tammy Beaumont comes into the tournament in the form of her life, having scored back-to-back centuries opening for England against Pakistan - including a magnificent unbeaten 168 - and following up with two half-centuries in the T20Is. Shes joined by Englands best allrounder, Nat Sciver, who belted 80 runs of 33 deliveries in the second ODI against Pakistan, the fastest half-century in ODIs. Add fiery South African allrounder, Marizanne Kapp, and one of Australias best bowlers, Rene Farrell, to the mix and the Stars look like a very difficult team to beat. Western StormTwo international captains with different styles join forces at the Western Storm with England skipper, Heather Knight, taking the reins and having her West Indies counterpart, Stafanie Taylor, on board. Taylor was outstanding in leading her side to their WWT20 title; she was the highest run-scorer, made a vital 59 in the final and was deservedly named Player of the Tournament. She also took eight wickets in that tournament, giving Knight some terrific options in the bowling: England opener Anya Shrubsole will also give the attack venom, with her inswingers among the best in the womens game. Yorkshire DiamondsKatherine Brunt, Shrubsoles opening bowling partner for England, is as Yorkshire as they come and it was no surprise to see her name on the Diamonds squad list. One of the most entertaining and competitive players in the world, Brunt wears her heart on her sleeve and bats with a ferocity that matches her bowling. Lauren Winfield is another who has blossomed for England under Mark Robinsons new regime; the Diamonds captain made two half-centuries in the T20I series and a century in the ODI series against Pakistan. If she needs any advice, she has Alex Blackwell on hand. The Australian vice-captain led the Sydney Thunder to victory in the WBBL and is one of the canniest tacticians in international cricket. ' ' '
