Theo Walcott hoping home advantage counts

Theo Walcott is hoping that Arsenal are able to make home advantage count against Manchester City this weekend.

Theo Walcott is hoping that Arsenal make home advantage count against Manchester City this weekend.

The Gunners recently saw their seven-match winning streak come to an end away at Queens Park Rangers on Saturday afternoon.

However, England international Walcott is adamant that the club's supporters can help Arsenal to overcome the challenge of title hopefuls City.

"The fans expect us to win every game, and we expect to go out there, play our best and we feel we can win every game," Walcott told the club's official website.

"The Emirates is starting to become a fortress, which is what we want it to be. That is with the help of the fans, they develop that.

"Away fans and players don't like to come to the Emirates, especially over the last few months. It helps us players, it is like having an extra man on the field."

Arsenal are currently third in the Premier League table.
