Arsenal is playing away against Wolverhampton Wanderers in the 34th round of the English Premier League. The Gunners took the lead late in the first half through a goal by Leandro Trossard.

Arsenal has now scored 21 consecutive away goals without conceding, marking an unprecedented streak in Premier League history.

The last time Mikel Arteta's team conceded in an away match in the league was on January 30th against Nottingham Forest, when Davide Raya was beaten by Taiwo Awoniyi.

The previous record was held by Chelsea under Luiz Felipe Scolari, who scored 20 away goals in a row without conceding in response from September to December 2008. This streak was ended on December 28th, 2008, after a goal by Clint Dempsey for Fulham at Craven Cottage.

Interestingly, the current Premier League dominators, Manchester City, have never scored more than 13 consecutive away goals without conceding in response from opponents.
