Comments:

League position: 11th This was Burnley's first drawn game in the Premier League at Turf Moor since the visit of Southampton on 2 February 2019 (1-1). It was their first goalless draw in a home game in the division since 28 April 2018 (versus Brighton and Hove Albion). This was the Clarets' ninth clean sheet so far in this Premier League season. Only leaders Liverpool had kept more (11). They failed in their attempt to win three consecutive games in the Premier League for the first time since April 2019.

League position: 10th With their 13th draw of the season, Arsenal became the first team to draw 13 or more of their opening 25 games of a top division season since Manchester United in 1980-81 in League Division One (15). Prior to kick-off, with 14 games to play, the Gunners could not now win this season’s Premier League title. Following the previous day's games, 1 February had become the earliest date they could not mathematically win the top division title since 1915 when they were in League Division Two. [c/o Orbinho (twitter)] Mesut Özil became the 76th player to make 250 appearances for Arsenal in all competitions.
