Post-Match Analysis:
Arsenal’s victory came despite the absence of injured winger Bukayo Saka. Manager Mikel Arteta’s solution was to start Gabriel Martinelli in Saka’s role, with Gabriel Jesus continuing up front.
The home side’s dominance in possession was evident, but they struggled to capitalize on their chances. Havertz’s goal proved to be the decisive factor, as Arsenal held on for a narrow win.
The result sees Arsenal leapfrog Nottingham Forest and Chelsea into second place, while Ipswich remains in a relegation battle.
