The Blades had now conceded the opening goal in 24 of their 31 games so far in this Premier League season. None of their last 17 games in the Premier League had now ended in a draw.

Comments:

League position: 9th Arsenal had now scored three goals in three of their last four away games in the Premier League (one in the other). They avoided failing to keep a clean sheet in 15 games in all competitions for the first time since February 1984. Alexandre Lacazette became the tenth player to score 50 goals for the Gunners in the Premier League.
