Arsenal have been setting a very steady pace for several weeks, to the point of breaking a record in the history of the Premier League.
The Cannoneers brought out the heavy artillery. In recent weeks, Arsenal have been hurting their opponents by piling up goals, 25 scored in the last six English Championship matches played by Mikel Arteta’s players, all won. With its notable statistics, the London club has made Premier League history.
Arsenal became the first PL team to score two or more first-half goals in a run of seven consecutive matches. On Saturday, Newcastle paid the price for the strength currently displayed by Odegaard and his teammates, winning 4-1 in this match on the 26th day of the Championship, a week after winning 5-0 at Burnley.
In the standings, the Gunners occupy third place, just two points behind Liverpool, leader, and one unit from Manchester City (2nd). The title race promises to be thrilling as the final sprint approaches.
