It’s great to see these unpredictable results making the league even more competitive! 
Arsenal have hit 37-year low in Aston Villa loss as Arteta’s side reach double figures for defeats - 10 Premier League losses through 23 fixtures in their 2020-21 campaign - worst record when it comes to reversals since 1983-84.
