Comments:

League position: 4th Arsenal had now won their last 12 home games in the Premier League for the first time since November 2005. Alexandre Lacazette had now scored two of the seven goals that had been scored in the opening three minutes of Premier League games so far in this season. Olivier Giroud had now scored 16 goals as a substitute in the Premier League; the fourth highest total in the competition after Jermain Defoe (23), Ole Gunnar Solskjaer (17) and Kanu (17). Manager Arsène Wenger took charge of a Premier League game against his 46th different opponent.

Comments:

League position: 14th Huddersfield Town had now created a new club record of failing to score in seven consecutive away games in all competitions. The Terriers had now won two of their last 12 games in the Premier League (lost seven). They conceded five goals in a league game for the first time since their 5-0 loss at Fulham in the League Championship on 29 October 2016.
