Comments:

League position: 19th 7,000 goals had now been scored in Burnley's 2,253 games in the top division (3,432 for, 3,568 against). The Clarets had now taken one point from their last eight games in the Premier League and one point from the last seven games at Turf Moor in the division. They had now scored 16 goals in their last 22 home games in the Premier League. Burnley were awarded a penalty after 68 minutes but was reversed after a VAR review.

Comments:

League position: 13th Arsenal avoided losing their opening three away games of a league season for the first time since 1954. The Gunners had now won their last 14 games in the Premier League when they have been leading at half time. Aaron Ramsdale became the third goalkeeper to keep a clean sheet in each of his first three starts for Arsenal after Jock Robson in January 1923 and Wojciech Szczesny in November 2010.
