As per football writer Andrew Beasley, it was the first time in Premier League history to feature at least four matches that all ended with the same scoreline.

He wrote on social media: "This is the first day in Premier League history to feature at least four matches that all ended with the same scoreline."

Prior to Arsenal's 2-1 win over Chelsea, Brighton and Hove Albion, Fulham and Manchester United all beat the likes of Nottingham Forest, Tottenham Hotspur and Crystal Palace by the same scoreline.

Back in 1995, five out of eight matches finished with the score of 1-1.

What did Mikel Arteta say about Arsenal's win over Chelsea?

Speaking after the match against Chelsea, Arteta was full of praise for his players.

He said: "Very, very happy.

"The players made an incredible performance as well and put so much into the game. After the great victory against Spurs, this would be even another level of difficulty."

Arteta added: "Against 10 men, I expected a different game.

"Look at the quality on the pitch - immense, but set-pieces are still the ones that made the difference. They are so good at that, and we are so good at that as well."

Looking ahead, the Gunners are back in Premier League action when they travel to the AMEX on Wednesday night to take on Brighton and Hove Albion.
