Arsenal on Monday night set four records following their Premier League 1-0 win against Burnley.
Recall that Arsenal defeated Burnley at the Emirates Stadium, thanks to Kai Havertz’s header in the first half of the encounter.
However, according to OptaJoe, Arsenal have now kept 32 clean sheets this season, six more than any other side in Europe’s top-five leagues in all competitions.
Also, since losing 2-1 to Manchester City, the Gunners are the only side to win all of their matches (4/4) and also the only side not to concede a goal in the Premier League.
Finally, the outcome of the Burnley game also means that Mikel Arteta’s side has now scored a set-piece goal (excluding penalties) in 19 different Premier League games this season, a joint record by a team in a 38-game season.
Arsenal are now five points ahead of Manchester City in the Premier League table.
They have just one final match to play against Crystal Palace next weekend, and a win will see them win the Premier League.
