Standard Sport brings you blow for blow coverage of Arsenal’s clash with Swansea City LIVE from the Emirates Stadium.

Arsenal look to close the gap on second place Manchester City this evening, knowing that a victory over Swansea City will take them level on points with Manuel Pellegrini’s side with a game in hand.

Arsene Wenger’s side are once again guaranteed a spot in next season’s Champions League, but will regard a runners-up finish as improvement on seasons gone by, especially if they’re able to retain their FA Cup crown against Aston Villa later this month.

We’ll bring you all the action from tonight’s match, live from the Emirates, which kicks off at 8pm this evening.

But who will come out on top? Stay tuned to Standard Sport for all the build-up, action and fallout!

Ahead of the match, Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger officially opened the club’s new community centre, the Arsenal Hub.

The Hub, due to fully up and running later this year, comes equipped with a 50 metre long 4G astroturf pitch, classrooms, meeting space and an adult learning centre named the Arsenal Red Zone.

"The Arsenal Hub will be a fantastic facility for our Arsenal in the Community team and the young people they work with every day,” said Wenger of the new centre.

“As a club, I believe we have an important role to play in the local area and I am very proud of the positive impact we are able to make. The new facility will help us do even more."
