League position: 3rd . This was Arsenal's first defeat in their last 17 games in all competitions; their longest such run since December 2018 (22 games without defeat). . Prior to this game, they had trailed for 13 minutes in their away games in the Premier League so far in 2024. . William Saliba had now been sent-off for the first time in his senior career. He was shown a yellow card in the 28th minute but was upgraded to a red card following a VAR review due to denying an obvious goal-scoring opportunity.
