Premier League LIVE: Preparation for Tottenham Hotspur against West Ham United (kick-off at 12:30 p.m.) and seven other games

Bournemouth have lost 11 of their 14 Premier League games against Arsenal, although all three have been home games (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 meetings with the Cherries by an aggregate score of 13-2, scoring over 3 goals each time.

Each of Bournemouth's last ten Premier League wins have come against teams in the bottom half of the table. The Cherries are winless in their last 11 games against teams in the top half (D4 L7) since a 3-0 win against Manchester United in December last year.

Arsenal's 3-1 win over Southampton in their last game was their 1,999th. Victory in the top division. A win here would make them the second team, after Liverpool (2,065), to reach the 2,000 mark.

Arsenal are unbeaten in all 10 games in all competitions so far this season (W7 D3) – they last had a longer unbeaten run (first 21) since the start of a season in 2007/08.

Bournemouth have had more shots on goal with high turnovers than any other team in the Premier League this season (18), while only three teams have had fewer such shots than the Cherries (6).

Arsenal have won 10 of their 12 Premier League away games so far in 2024, with their only two defeats 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 game and, with a goal against Bournemouth, would have become the youngest player to score 50 goals for the club in this competition (11th player overall).

Kai Havertz has been involved in 20 goals in his last 21 Premier League appearances (13 goals, 7 assists). He scored his first goal for Arsenal in this very game last season, converting 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).
