Comments:

League position: 5th Arsenal had now drawn three consecutive home games in all competitions for the first time since August 2012. The Gunners and Cardiff City were now the only two teams not to have led at half-time in any of their 12 games so far in this Premier League season. They were now unbeaten in their last ten games in the Premier League (won seven) for the first time since December 2016.

Comments:

League position: 11th Wolverhampton Wanderers remained without a win in their last 26 games in the Premier League (lost 15) against teams starting the day in the top half of the table. Since a run of four wins in six games in the Premier League, Wolves are now without a win in their last five games in the division. They had now scored four goals in their away games so far in this Premier League season; only Cardiff City (two) and Newcastle United (three) had scored fewer.
