Premier League LIVE: Lead-up to Tottenham Hotspur vs West Ham United (kick-off 12.30pm) and seven other matches

  • Bournemouth have lost eleven of their fourteen Premier League games against Arsenal, although all three exceptions have been at home (3-3 in January 2017, 2-1 in January 2018, 1-1 in December 2019).

  • Since Bournemouth returned to the Premier League in 2022, Arsenal have won all four of their meetings with the Cherries by an aggregate score of 13-2, scoring more than three goals each time.

  • Each of Bournemouth’s last ten Premier League wins have been against sides in the bottom half of the table. The Cherries are winless in their last XI against sides in the top half since beating Manchester United 3-0 in December last year (D4 L7).

  • Arsenal’s 3-1 win over Southampton last time out was their 1,999th win in the top flight. The victory here makes them the second team to reach 2,000, after Liverpool (2,065).

  • Arsenal are unbeaten in all ten games in all competitions so far this season (W7 D3). The last time they were undefeated since the start of a season was in 2007-2008 (First 21).

  • Bournemouth have had more shots than any other side in the Premier League this season (18), while only three teams have faced fewer such shots than the Cherries (6).

  • Arsenal have won 10 of 12 away games in the Premier League so far in 2024, with the only two failures both coming against Manchester City (0-0 in March, 2-2 in September).

  • Bukayo Saka has scored 49 Premier League goals for Arsenal. He was 23 years and 44 days old on the day of this match and a goal against Bournemouth would make him the youngest to score 50 for the club in the competition (11th player overall).

  • Kai Havertz has been involved in 20 goals in his last 21 Premier League appearances (13 goals, 7 assists). His first goal for Arsenal came in this very match last season, netting a penalty in a 4-0 win.

  • No player has more secondary assists (the pass before the assist) in the Premier League this season than Arsenal’s Thomas Partey (3).
