A rare misstep this season saw Arsenal lose at home to Aston Villa on Sunday afternoon as Manchester City now once again lead the way at the top of the Premier League

No time, though, for Mikel Arteta and his players to dwell on the defeat as they head to Munich on Wednesday looking to progress into a Champions League semi-final

To look back and peer ahead, Mark is here and is joined by Simon Collings of the Evening Standard and football.london's Kaya Kaynak

Guess the Gooner is back, of course, although Jordan Davies is refusing to return to the pod now he has finally managed to get to grips with the concept of the game*

*Rumour has it Jordan was last seen sporting a signed Calum Chambers shirt at the Emirates on Sunday and was disappointed he did not get to meet his new hero in person...

A long-awaited return to Champions League action did not disappoint as Arsenal drew 2-2 with Bayern Munich at the Emirates Stadium on Tuesday night

With the tie finely-poised ahead of a trip to Bavaria to come next week, Kaya is back in the presenters' chair and is joined by a bumper panel

Jordan Davies from the Sun, the Telegraph's Sam Dean and Jordan Campbell of the Athletic are on hand to run the rule over the first leg and what it means for Arsenal's last-four chances

Our weekly debate is taken over by a "penalty shoot-out" as the panel argue over which decisions were right and which were wrong - having already nearly come to blows over Kylie Minogue

There is just about time after all of that to preview Sunday's Premier League visit of Aston Villa as Unai Emery looks to steer Arsenal off-course (again)

We also cram in a triple-threat round of Guess the Gooner, to boot!

Kaya is back in the hot seat following a thrilling 0-0 draw at Manchester City on Easter Sunday

With the Premier League title race taking another twist, Kaya is joined by Jordan Davies from The Sun to look back and pick the bones out of the goalless stalemate

Luton up next, though, and the reverse fixture finished 4-3 so surely there is some excitement to be found on the pod somewhere...fellas...?!

In what could be a potentially huge fixture in deciding the destination of the Premier League title, the Arsenal Beat is back and we have rolled out our own big-game players

Mark is joined by Simon Collings of the Evening Standard and football.london's Kaya Kaynak to look ahead to what is shaping up to be a defining match in Mikel Arteta's reign

We also have our usual Thursday debate - as well as an important discussion about chocolate eggs - and we finish with a special outing of the best game in podcasting* Guess the Gooner

*decision pending

Arsenal are top of the Premier League - nothing new in that given the past year-and-a-half

Arsenal, though, are also in the Champions League quarter-finals...

With Mikel Arteta's men ending a 14-year wait to get back to the business end of Europe's elite competition, only an elite Arsenal Beat panel would suffice

Mark is joined by Kaya Kaynak of football.london and the returning Nick Ames of Guardian fame to look back on two results that could shape this season and beyond for the Gunners

The trio talk continental hot chocolate options, handball, Raya and Ramsdale, Havertz, Kiwior and more

We also here from skipper Martin Odegaard as Mark coins a Karl Hein catchphrase (expect him to launch an online merch store sooner rather than later) and Nick ends the show with a bold prediction

Yet another thrashing handed out by Mikel Arteta's in-form side means spirits on the Arsenal Beat remain high

Kaya is back on hosting duties and is joined by Jordan Campbell of the Athletic and The Sun's Jordan Davies to look back on a fine 6-0 win at Sheffield United

The trio also cast a collective eye towards Saturday's visit of Brentford, while the Athletic's Jay Harris joins us as our Arsenal Outsider

We round things off with a thrilling Guess the Gooner as both Jordans aim for their maiden victory

We have the whole weekend to see out before Mikel Arteta takes his men to face Sheffield United at Bramall Lane on Monday night

Despite that, we are back once again to preview the game against the rock-bottom Blades as Mark is joined by Kaya Kaynak of football.london and the Evening Standard's Simon Collings

Before the panel take a look ahead to the game, they have to settle our latest debate - which asks: "Which injured player have Arsenal missed the least?"

The trio can't move on until they decide on a collective answer - and if you're listening on Spotify make sure to cast your vote, too

We have the next unexpected instalment of 'Dogs of The Arsenal Beat' and Kaya pitches a new job as a Chippendale

NB. The Terminator was released in 1984 - making it a whole four years older than Mark (phew)

Another impressive Premier League win for Arsenal means plenty of positivity among the Arsenal Beat panel

Mark is back to host and this time is joined by Art de Roche of the Athletic and The Sun's Jordan Davies to cast a collective eye back over the 4-1 victory over Newcastle on Saturday evening

The trio talk about the performance, Emirates Stadium on a Saturday night, savvy and streetwise Jorginho, Kiwior coming through and if Oleksandr Zinchenko's absence has actually helped Arsenal in the title race

Our Monday pod is home to Guess the Gooner and we round things off with Jordan's debut in the hottest game in podcasting*

*award pending

Another fine weekend for Arsenal as they beat Burnley 5-0 at Turf Moor on Saturday to further prove their title credentials.

The Arsenal Beat review show brings you a panel of three reporters who travelled up to cover the game as Kaya takes the hosting duties and is joined by Simon Collings of the Evening Standard and The Athletic's Jordan Campbell.

The trio look back on the performances of Martin Odegaard, hear from Kai Havertz and judge the offerings from Burnley's Tesco Extra.

The guys also cast their eyes forward to Wednesday's Champions League last-16 tie in Porto, how will Mikel Arteta approach the game, who will play and can Arsenal go all the way in Europe?

Of course, we then wrap things up with another round of Guess the Gooner

On the back of that thumping win at West Ham, the Arsenal Beat preview show is back.

Another Saturday on the road sees Mikel Arteta's side travel to face his old mate Vincent Kompany's Burnley.

Mark is joined by his old mates Kaya Kaynak of football.london and the Athletic's Art de Roche to look ahead to the game.

Thursday's are also the day of debate on the Arsenal Beat as this week we aim to find Arsenal's 'unsung hero' of the season so far.

There *may* be some Taylor Swift references very much getting in the way, too but obviously we are professional enough to not let them impact on the quality of chat...
