Top of the table, six wins on the bounce, and they have not conceded a goal in October. Mikel Arteta’s side are looking every inch like champions in waiting, though we have said that before.
Arsenal have kept six straight clean sheets across three competitions, and with Burnley next up, few would bet against them stretching that run. Even without Gabriel Martinelli and William Saliba, who are both expected to miss out, the Gunners’ defence has been watertight.
They have scored just 16 goals in nine league games, hardly explosive, but when no one can score against you it does not matter much.
