Stats that paint a bleak picture for the Gunners

Arsenal/@Independant
Frustrated by bottom-placed Wolverhampton (2-2), conceding an equalizer in stoppage time after leading 2-0, Arsenal suffered a major setback in the title race.
Mikel Arteta and his squad will be ruing the missed opportunity after letting a comfortable win slip against the Wolves, who currently sit at the bottom of the English league. This underwhelming result says a lot, as the Gunners now hold just a five-point lead over Manchester City, having played one game more.
This draw casts doubt over the London club, especially as it highlights a worrying statistic: Arsenal have won just 2 of their last 7 Premier League matches (4 draws, 1 defeat) after winning their previous 5 in the English top flight.
What's more, Arsenal have become the first Premier League leaders to be held to a draw by the bottom-placed side after being two goals up on the scoreboard.
Fans have every reason to be concerned, especially since the club faces two London derbies in the next two matchdays, against Tottenham and then Chelsea, before a crucial clash with Manchester City on April 18.
