Here are the key facts and figures before Wednesday's Premier League fixture between Arsenal and Luton

  • Arsenal have won all five of their league games against promoted sides this season, netting at least three goals each time (23 goals in total). The most combined goals any side has scored against promoted teams in a Premier League campaign is 24 – by Arsenal in 2012-13.

  • Luton have taken just four points from 24 available from evening kick-offs (7pm or later) in the Premier League this season (W1 D1 L6), with their sole victory coming at home to Brighton in January (4-0).

  • With eight goals and four assists, Arsenal captain Martin Odegaard has been involved in 12 goals in his past 12 Premier League appearances against promoted sides.

  • Luton have scored in each of their past 18 Premier League games, the longest ongoing scoring streak. However, they’ve won just four of these 18 matches, and are winless in their past nine (D3 L6).

  • Arsenal forward Gabriel Jesus turns 27 on the day of this game. He scored on his 24th birthday for Manchester City against Leicester, and could become the first player to score a Premier League goal on his birthday for two different clubs.
