A title challenge? Arsenal have matched a historic record

Arsenal continue to impress at the start of the Premier League season. In their Matchweek 10 clash, Mikel Arteta's side edged past Hull City thanks to a solitary goal from Martin Ødegaard, setting several notable statistical milestones in the process.

The Londoners have collected 27 points from their first ten matches and, according to Squawka, have matched the best start in the club's Premier League history: Arsenal also had 27 points at the same stage of the 2022/23 season.

In addition, the Gunners have already secured nine wins in their ten league games. Another interesting detail concerns narrow victories: Arsenal have won four of their first ten matches in the current Premier League campaign by a 1-0 scoreline.

With that record, the Londoners have matched the tournament record at this stage of the season. The last team to claim four wins by that scoreline in their opening ten matches was West Bromwich Albion in the 2015/16 campaign.
