Comments:

League position: 3rd . Newcastle United had now lost four of their last 29 games in the Premier League. . The Magpies had now conceded 13 goals in first-half of their last 36 games in the Premier League. . This was the first defeat in their ten games played on a Sunday so far in this Premier League season (won six). . Newcastle United were awarded a penalty in the eighth minute for handball but was reversed after a VAR review.

Comments:

League position: 2nd . Arsenal kept a clean sheet for the first time in their last nine games in all competitions. . They had now scored against all of the 19 opposition teams in this Premier League season. . Two players (Gabriel Martinelli and Martin Odegaard, both 15) had now scored 15 or more goals for the Gunners in a league season for the first time since Ray Kennedy (19) and John Radford (15) in League Division One in the double-winning 1970-71 season.
