Luton v Arsenal: Pick of the stats
- Published
This is the first meeting between Luton and Arsenal in any competition since December 1991, a 1-0 win for the Hatters at Kenilworth Road in the top-flight.
Arsenal are winless in their past 10 away games against Luton in all competitions (D6 L4) since a 2-1 league win in January 1984 under Don Howe.
Arsenal have won six of the past seven games when facing a side in the Premier League for the first time.
Luton picked up their first Premier League home win in their most recent home game against Crystal Palace. They have conceded in all six at Kenilworth Road in the competition so far, but have only failed to score once (0-1 v Tottenham in October).
No side have kept more away clean sheets (four) or conceded fewer goals on the road (three) in the Premier League this season than Arsenal. Three of the Gunners’ four league wins on the road this season have been by a 1-0 scoreline.
If he plays, this will be Bukayo Saka’s 200th appearance for Arsenal in all competitions. Aged 22 years and 91 days, he would be the second-youngest English player to ever reach the milestone for the Gunners after Cliff Bastin (22y 16d) and youngest overall since Cesc Fabregas in 2008 (21y 118d).
