Comments:

League position: 3rd . Arsenal failed in their attempt to win nine consecutive games in the Premier League for the first time since March 2004. . This was the Gunners' first draw in a league game since their visit to Manchester City on 31 March 2024; longer than any other current Premier League team, along with Manchester City. . In his 245th appearance in the division, Declan Rice had now been sent-off for the first time in the Premier League.

Comments:

League position: 2nd . Brighton and Hove Albion failed in their attempt to win their opening three games of a season in the Premier League for the first time. . The Seagulls had now drawn 13 of their last 34 games in the Premier League (lost 12). . An opposition player had now been sent-off in both of Albion's away games so far in this Premier League season; also Ashley Young at Everton.
