Good morning Gooners!
Making History in Europe: Arsenal 3-2 FC Kairat
The Emirates Stadium bore witness to a historic European night as Arsenal secured a hard-fought 3-2 victory against Kairat. This win was particularly significant because it solidified the Gunners as the first team in Champions League history to finish the league phase with a perfect record of eight wins from eight matches.
The evening belonged to Kai Havertz, who, in his first start in over a year following an injury-plagued season, put in a vintage performance with a goal and an assist. Star signing Viktor Gyökeres opened the scoring early, and Gabriel Martinelli rounded off the scoring to ensure Arsenal finished atop the table as heavy favourites for the knockout rounds.
A+ performance: Leeds 0-4 Arsenal
Arsenal made the trip to Elland Road last weekend for a clash against Leeds United. While historic matchups between these two have occasionally been tight, this edition was anything but. The Gunners produced a masterclass in clinical finishing, dispatching the Whites in a 4-0 rout. Goals came from Martin Zubimendi, Noni Madueke and Gyökeres before Gabriel Jesus capped off a dominant team performance with a brilliant spinning effort into the top corner, after. This result continued Arsenal’s incredible run against Leeds, as Arteta remains unbeaten against the Yorkshire side during his tenure, further cementing our place at the summit of the Premier League table.
With Villa’s loss and City’s draw, Arsenal remained at the top of the table with a 6-point advantage. Big matches this week!
Arsenal vs Chelsea (Carabao Cup) – No live screening
Date: Wednesday, 4th February 2026, Kick-off: 4.00 AM
No live screening
The action doesn’t slow down as we prepare for a massive London derby tonight, against Chelsea in the Carabao Cup semi-final second leg. Holding a slender 3-2 aggregate lead from the first leg at Stamford Bridge, the Gunners are in the driver’s seat but cannot afford complacency. Chelsea comes to the Emirates in high spirits after recent comeback wins, and with a spot at Wembley on the line, we expect a high-intensity battle and the atmosphere in North London will be electric as we look to book our place in the final.
Arsenal v Sunderland (Premier League) – Live Screening TBA
Date: Saturday, 7th February 2026, Kick-off: 11.00 PM
Live screening TBA
Following the midweek cup, we return to Premier League action this Saturday to host Sunderland. This match carries a sentimental weight as we welcome back former captain Granit Xhaka, who will be leading the Black Cats at the Emirates. The reverse fixture earlier this season ended in a dramatic 2-2 draw, proving that Sunderland is a side that can punch above their weight. However, with Arsenal looking to maintain their lead in the title race, the team will be eager to avoid another slip-up and secure all three points in front of the home support.
Highlights of Arsenal Singapore Mid-Season Party
The energy was palpable as over 100 members of the Arsenal family gathered for our spectacular mid-season party. The festivities kicked off with a digital showdown like no other—our inaugural FC26 tournament. The competition was fierce, with controllers clicking in rapid-fire succession, but after a series of hard-fought matches, Shi Wei emerged as the undisputed champion. For his tactical mastery on the virtual pitch, he walked away with a well-deserved $100 Weston voucher.
The excitement didn’t stop at the consoles, though. We introduced a fresh lineup of interactive games that had the room erupting in laughter and friendly rivalry, proving that our members have just as much spirit as the players on the pitch. The stakes were raised even higher during our giveaway segment, where several lucky fans bagged signed jerseys. The ultimate prize, however, was a truly unique piece of club memorabilia, a limited edition Trossard shirt piece, which now belongs to one very fortunate member.
The true crescendo of the evening came during the live screening as Arsenal secured a thrilling victory right before our eyes. It was more than just a party but a night where community and triumph collided to create an unforgettable memory in our season’s journey.
Thanks to our partners, AirWallex, Tadcaster Hospitality and Weston Corp for supporting the event.
