Comments:

League position: 15th Arsenal had now lost four consecutive home league games for the first time since December 1959 in League Division One. With four wins and one draw from their opening 12 games, they had now made their worst start to a league season since 1974-75 in League Division One (two wins and three draws). The Gunners had now been shown six red cards in games in the Premier League since manager Mikel Arteta’s appointment in December 2019; three more than any other team in the division.

Comments:

League position: 17th Burnley had now taken 101 points from their 120 away games in the Premier League (won 24, lost 67). The Clarets had won one of their preceding 11 games in the Premier League (lost seven). They had now scored six goals in their 12 games so far in this Premier League season; only bottom of the table Sheffield United had scored fewer.
