Comments:

League position: 9th Arsenal had now lost nine home games in a season in all competitions for the first time since 1929-30. The Gunners had now failed to score in eight of their 17 home games so far in this Premier season; the most by any other team in the division except Fulham (ten) and West Bromwich Albion (nine). This was their first league defeat in a game played on a Friday since 15 April 1988 against Watford in League Division One. Arsenal were awarded a penalty after 51 minutes but was reversed after a VAR review due to an offside decision.

Comments:

League position: 8th Everton had now won ten away games in a league season for the first time since 1986-87 in League Division One. Both of the own goals in the Toffees' favour so far in this Premier League season had been conceded by Arsenal players (also Rob Holding at Goodison Park on 19 December 2020). They had now won 21 of their last 50 games in the Premier League (lost 16).
