Match Facts
This is the first meeting between Luton and Arsenal in any competition since December 1991, and a 1-0 win for the Hatters at Kenilworth Road in the top-flight.
Arsenal are winless in their last 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 last seven games when facing a side in the Premier League for the first time, though the exception was a 2-0 defeat at Brentford in their last such match in August 2021.
Luton have won just one of their last 14 league games against sides starting the day top of the top-flight table (D4 L9), beating Liverpool 3-1 in February 1991. This is their first such game since a 1-1 draw with Manchester United in April 1992.
Arsenal have won over half of their Premier League games played on each day between Friday and Monday (55.7% overall) but have a win rate of lower than 50% on each day between Tuesday and Thursday (48% overall).
Luton have only lost three of their last 22 league games played on a Tuesday (W11 D8), though one of those was in their only such Premier League game so far (1-2 v Burnley in October).
Luton picked up their first Premier League home win last time out against Crystal Palace. They’ve 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 (4) or conceded fewer goals on the road (3) 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.
Jacob Brown has scored in both of Luton’s last two Premier League games – he last scored in three consecutive English league appearances in April 2019, while at Barnsley.
If he plays, this will be Bukayo Saka’s 200th appearance for Arsenal in all competitions. Aged 22 years and 91 days, he’d be the second youngest English player to ever reach the milestone for the Gunners after Cliff Bastin (22y 16d) and youngest overall since Cesc Fàbregas in 2008 (21y 118d).
