MONDAY NIGHT FOOTBALL: SHEFFIELD UNITED VS ARSENAL

-

Sheffield United are unbeaten in their last four top-flight home games against Arsenal (Won 1, Draw 3) since a 0-2 loss in April 1991. However, this is their first such meeting since December 2006.

Arsenal have played more Premier League games at Bramall Lane without victory than they have any other ground in the competition (3- Draw 2, Lost 1).

Sheffield United have lost their last three Premier League home games. They last lost four in a row at home in league competition in April 1965.

Sheffield United have scored just one goal before half-time in the Premier League this season, fewer than any other side. All seven of their goals have also all been scored by different players, including benefitting from two own goals.

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang has scored 49 goals in 75 games for Arsenal in all competitions - a goal here would see him become the sixth fastest player to reach the 50 milestone for the Gunners.
