They remain unbeaten in their second fixture against each club, as they played Chelsea twice before the faced Arsenal for the first time, with the second game against the Blues 19 matches ago, and their last defeat, to the Gunners, 18 matches ago.
Iraola said his side have not a lot of pressure heading to the City Ground on Sunday, but they want to maximise their chances – as they could still qualify for the Champions League, too.
“I know we've spoken about not losing any game in the second half of the season, and we have just one team remaining,” he told the Daily Echo.
“We haven't lost against any opposition the second game of the season. And when you have it so close, I don't know how many teams have done this, but I suppose not a lot of teams.
“So I think we are close also to getting this thing that is not minor for me, and I would definitely love to finish without a loss this second half of the season.”
