City had now won 100 of their 255 home games in the Premier League (lost 79). The Foxes had now taken 50 points from their 30 games in the Premier League in 2019.

Comments:

League position: 6th After 12 games of this Premier League season, Arsenal were now nine points behind Chelsea in third position and nine points ahead of Southampton in 19th position. With 18 points from their opening 12 games, the Gunners had now made their worst start to a league season since 1982-83 in League Division One under Terry Neill (15 points). This was Unai Emery’s 50th game in charge of Arsenal in the Premier League (won 25, lost 13). The total of 87 points was one fewer than the last 50 games under Arsène Wenger.
