Comments:

League position: 15th Leeds United were now without a win in their last six games in the Premier League (lost four). The Whites had now kept a clean sheet in four of their last 33 games in the Premier League. Patrick Bamford missed a penalty in the 64th minute. United had converted their last 17 spot-kicks in the Premier League since Alan Smith missed against Blackburn Rovers in September 2002. Leeds United were awarded a penalty in added time at the end of the game for a foul but was reversed after a VAR review.

Comments:

League position: 1st Arsenal had now won ten of their opening 11 games in a season for the second time; previously in 1903-04 in League Division Two. The Gunners failed in their attempt to score three goals or more in four consecutive league games for the first time since September 2004. They had now kept a clean sheet in four of their last 19 games in the Premier League. Gabriel was shown a red card in added time at the end of the game but was downgraded to a yellow card following a VAR review.
