Comments:

League position: 9th The only previous goal that Arsenal had conceded in the opening minute of a home game in the Premier League was scored by Fulham debutant David Healy in the opening weekend of the 2007-08 season (50 seconds). The Gunners failed in their attempt keep clean sheets in four consecutive games in all competitions for the first time since October 2016. Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang had now scored 32 goals in 38 games in the Premier League played on a Sunday.

Comments:

League position: 11th Timed at 49 seconds, Dominic Calvert-Lewin scored Everton’s quickest goal in an away game in the Premier League since Kevin Campbell at Newcastle United on 17 April 1999 (42 seconds). [c/o Steve Johnson, Everton: The complete record] The Toffees equalled their club record of scoring in ten consecutive away games in the Premier League (also from September 1996 to January 1997). Jordan Pickford had now made 103 consecutive appearances in the Premier League for Everton; only Tim Howard had now achieved a longer such run in the division for the club (210 appearances).
