Here is a look at what the stats say ahead of the Premier League clash between Arsenal and Everton, live on SuperSport and Showmax Pro.
Arsenal have won 99 of their 203 league games against Everton (D43 L61), and could become the first team in English league history to register 100 victories against a specific opponent.
Everton have won just one of their last 26 away games against Arsenal in the Premier League (D4 L21), picking up a 1-0 victory in April 2021.
Everton have won four of their last five league games against Arsenal, including a 1-0 win in the reverse fixture last month. It's as many victories as they had in their previous 28 against the Gunners (D8 L16).
Everton have never won a Premier League away game against the side starting the day top of the table, drawing five and losing 19 such matches. The Toffees' last league victory away to the top-flight leaders was in September 1986, a 2-1 win at Wimbledon.
After a run of 10 consecutive home wins in the Premier League, Arsenal have won just one of their last four at the Emirates (D2 L1). The Gunners have also kept just two clean sheets in their last 16 home league games.
Everton have won just one of their last 13 Premier League away games, a 2-1 win at Southampton in October (D5 L7). Since that victory, the Toffees have scored just one goal in their seven away games (D2 L5), with Demarai Gray netting in a 1-1 draw at Manchester City in December.
Arsenal have 57 points from their 24 Premier League games this season – victory here would be the joint fastest the Gunners have ever reached 60 points in a single league campaign, also doing so after 25 games in both 2003-04 and 2007-08.
Having lost his first nine Premier League games against Arsenal, Everton boss Sean Dyche has lost just one of his last six against them (W2 D3). However, his sides have never scored more than once in those 15 meetings with the Gunners, netting seven goals in total.
James Tarkowski scored Everton's winner against Arsenal in the reverse fixture – the last Toffees player to score home and away against the Gunners in the same Premier League campaign was Tomasz Radzinski in 2003-04.
Gabriel Martinelli has scored in his last two Premier League appearances for Arsenal – he's never scored in three in a row within the same season before. He's scored nine Premier League goals this season, and could become the third Brazilian to reach double figures in a single campaign while aged 21 or under, after Gabriel Jesus (2017-18) and Richarlison (2018-19).
