Five goals per half. Arsenal has achieved excellence in away matches in the English Premier League

Arsenal is engaging in an away match of the English Premier League against Sheffield United.

In the first half of this encounter, the Gunners ensured themselves a resounding outcome and victory. Arsenal netted five goals by the 39th minute, concluding the first half with a scoreline of 5:0 in favor of Mikel Arteta's side.

Thanks to such productivity in the opening half, Arsenal became the second team to score at least five goals in three consecutive away matches in the top tier of English football. The last team to achieve this feat was Burnley, in September 1961.

Furthermore, Arsenal has now scored 300 goals under the guidance of Mikel Arteta. He has overseen 161 matches at the helm of the Gunners, requiring fewer matches for such a tally compared to Pep Guardiola (120), Jürgen Klopp (142), and Manuel Pellegrini (149).

Sheffield United, in turn, became the first team in the history of English football to concede a minimum of five goals on their own turf in four successive matches. They conceded this number of goals twice against Brighton (2-5 and 0-5), against Aston Villa (0-5), and now against Arsenal.
