Comments:

League position: 11th Only Alexandre Lacazette (six) and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang (ten) had now scored more goals for Arsenal in the Premier League in 2018 than Nacho Monreal. The Gunners were now unbeaten in their last ten home London derbies in the Premier League (won seven). They avoided losing their first three league games of a season for the first time since 1954-55 and for only the fifth time in their history.

Comments:

League position: 20th West Ham United had now lost their first three league games of a season for a third time in this decade (also 2010-11 and 2017-18). They had done so only five times between 1920 and 2010. The Hammers had now lost 29 Premier League games against Arsenal; more than against any other team. Issa Diop became the eighth player to score an own goal on his debut in the Premier League (the first for West Ham United).
