Comments:
League position: 12th Arsenal had won their preceding seven home games in the Premier League played on a Monday. Only Olivier Giroud (17) had now scored more goals after coming on as a substitute for the Gunners in the Premier League than Alexandre Lacazette (nine). This was Arsenal's first game with both teams managed by a former Gunner since January 1995 when George Graham's Arsenal drew with Southampton (managed by Alan Ball) in the Premier League at Highbury.
