Comments:

League position: 4th Arsenal had now conceded 1,000 goals in the Premier League (played 1,028, scored 1,832). The Gunners had now won eight consecutive home games in the Premier League. They failed in their attempt to keep consecutive clean sheets in the Premier League for the first time since September 2018. Alexandre Lacazette became the first Arsenal player to score in five consecutive home games in the Premier League since Robin van Persie from December 2011 to March 2012.

Comments:

League position: 12th AFC Bournemouth had now lost a club record nine consecutive away games in the top division, and conceded at least two goals in each game. The Cherries only longer run of consecutive away league defeats within a season was 11 games from December 1933 to May 1934 in the Third Division (South). They had now conceded more goals in this Premier League season than bottom-of-the-table Huddersfield Town. AFC Bournemouth had now lost 11 away games in a league for the first time since 2008-09 in League Two.
