Comments:

League position: 8th AFC Bournemouth had now lost three consecutive games for the first time since April 2018 (all Premier League). Since being promoted to the Premier League in 2015, only Swansea City (12) had now scored more own goals in the division than the Cherries (seven). Norwegian international Josh King scored on his 200th appearance in English league football.

Comments:

League position: 5th Arsenal had now won four of their six away games so far in this Premier League season; as many as they won in their 19 away games in the Premier League in the previous season. Along with Cardiff City, the Gunners remained as one of two teams that had yet to lead at half-time in a Premier League game so far in this season. In his 31st appearance for the club, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang scored his 20th goal for Arsenal.
