Comments:

League position: 3rd Arsenal had now lost three consecutive games in all competitions for the first time since April 2010. They had now won three of their last 11 games in all competitions.

Comments:

League position: 16th Prior to this game, Swansea City had gone four Premier League games without a win (lost two). Only bottom-of-the-table Aston Villa (21) have scored fewer goals than the Swans (25) after 28 games of this Premier League season. Due to manager Francesco Guidolin being admitted to hospital earlier in the day with a chest infection, assistant Alan Curtis took over for this game.
