It's a really well executed set piece. Really good centre forward play from Evanilson.

Marcus Tavernier makes the dash to get the first contact.

Looks like Martin Odegaard is fouling Evanilson to me regardless.

VAR is taking a look at this for a possible handball.
Did it strike his body and then his forearm?
It's so tough to see.

The corner is sent in, Marcus Tavernier flicks it towards the back post and Evanilson bundles it over the line.

How many times have Arsenal played against an uninspired team and still managed to cough up a lead? Bournemouth aren't out of this until a second Gunners goal is scored.
From Kurt.

Game on.

Arsenal have won all eight of their home games against Bournemouth in all competitions, scoring 23 goals and conceding just four.
Bournemouth have kept just one clean sheet in their 15 Premier League meetings with Arsenal, though it was a 2-0 victory in the reverse fixture this season.
Arsenal have lost just one of their last 35 Premier League games on the weekend immediately following a midweek European match (W24 D10), going down 2-0 at home to Aston Villa in April last year.
Arsenal have failed to win nine Premier League games in which they led so far this season (D9), more than they had in the previous two campaigns combined (4 in 2022-23, 4 in 2023-24). They’ve never failed to win 10 games from ahead in a single season before.
Though they’re unbeaten in four (W1 D3), Bournemouth have won just one of their last nine Premier League games (D4 L4). It’s a run that has seen the Cherries drop from 5th to 10th in the league table.
Only Liverpool (1) and Arsenal (2) have lost fewer Premier League away games than Bournemouth (4) this season. However, the Cherries are winless in their last 11 league games in London (D6 L5), with each of their last five visits ending level.
Each of Arsenal’s three Premier League defeats this season have come against teams starting the day in the bottom half of the table, with the Gunners unbeaten in their last 18 against sides in the top 10 (W10 D8).
Arsenal’s Leandro Trossard has scored four goals in his last four Premier League games, as many as he had in his previous 31. Three of these four strikes have put Arsenal ahead in the match.
Only Mohamed Salah (120) has had more shots than Bournemouth’s Antoine Semenyo (118) in the Premier League this season. However, Semenyo has the fifth lowest conversion rate of anyone with 50+ shots this term (7.6%).
Bournemouth’s Justin Kluivert has been involved in 13 goals in his last 10 Premier League away games (10 goals, 3 assists), while only Mohamed Salah (16) has scored on the road than the Dutchman this term (10).
