Comments:

League position: 3rd . Arsenal avoided losing four consecutive games in all competitions for the first time since March 2018. . The Gunners avoided losing three consecutive home games in all competitions without scoring for the first time since December 1908 when they were still known as Woolwich Arsenal. . This was the the latest date that they had played their first league game of a year since 1982 (at Stoke City in League Division One on 20 January). [c/o Harvey Downes] . On 26 January 2024, the Premier League’s Goal Accreditation Appeals Panel upheld Arsenal's request to award their second goal (37th minute) to Gabriel; therefore not, as previously recorded, an own goal by Dean Henderson.
