Arsenal continued their impressive Premier League campaign with a narrow home victory over Hull City, claiming their ninth win in the opening ten matches of the season. The Gunners' captain, Martin Ødegaard, proved to be the match-winner, scoring the only goal of the game in the 72nd minute.

The result also allowed the north London side to equal their best-ever start to a Premier League season in terms of points collected after ten rounds. Arsenal had previously reached the same milestone only once, during the 2022/23 campaign.

With nine victories from their first ten league fixtures, Mikel Arteta's men are matching a historic club achievement and underlining their credentials as serious contenders for the Premier League title.
