Comments:

Final league position 2018-19: 15th Burnley had now lost their last three games on the final day of a Premier League season. The Clarets had now scored 45 goals this season; a club record in the Premier League. They had now lost ten home league games in a season for the first time. Ben Mee became one of only three outfield players to play in every minute of their 38 games in this Premier League season (also Conor Coady of Wolverhampton Wanderers and Crystal Palace's Luka Milivojević). Ashley Barnes scored a club record 12 goals in a season in the Premier League.

Final league position 2018-19: 5th Arsenal had now won on the final day in each of the last eight seasons in the Premier League. They had now not lost on the final day of a Premier League season since 2004-05 at Birmingham City. The Gunners had now won 18 of their 27 final games of a Premier League season; a joint competition record. They avoided completing a run of five games in the Premier League without a win for the first time since February 2009. The Gunners had now also finished below Tottenham Hotspur in three consecutive league seasons for the first time since 1967-1968. With Konstantinos Mavropanos being withdrawn during the first half, Arsenal had now created a new Premier League record for the most substitutions in a season before the second half begins (28); previously Watford in 2006-07 (27). Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang shared this season's Golden Boot award for the Premier League's leading scorer with Liverpool's Sadio Mané and Mohamed Salah (22 goals each). He became one of six players to score 100 or more goals in Europe's top five leagues over the last four seasons and had now scored 31 goals this season in all competitions. Arsenal kept only one clean sheet in their away games in this Premier League season; their fewest in a league season since 1967-68 in League Division One (also one). Eddie Nketiah became the first teenager to score a Premier League goal for Arsenal since Alex Iwobi against Watford on 2 April 2016.
