Match facts

Arsenal

Arsenal have won just one of their last six Premier League fixtures against Middlesbrough, though four of these were draws (L1).
The last time these two sides met was in the 2014/15 FA Cup, with Olivier Giroud scoring twice to send Arsenal to the quarter finals. They went on to lift the trophy that year.
This game is on the same day as Arsene Wenger's 67th birthday. He has won his two previous Premier League games on his birthday, 1-0 v Man City in 2005 and 4-0 v Reading in 2006.
The Gunners have scored 1,2,3,4,5,6 and 7 goals in Premier League matches against Middlesbrough - one of four clubs to do so against another in Premier League history (also Chelsea vs Sunderland, Everton vs Sunderland and Man City vs Norwich).

Middlesbrough

Middlesbrough's last league victory away to Arsenal came in April 2001, winning 3-0 thanks to own goals from Edu, Sylvinho and a strike from Hamilton Ricard.
Middlesbrough's only Premier League win this season has come against bottom club Sunderland (D3 L4).
Boro have kept just one clean sheet in their last 19 away Premier League fixtures, away at West Brom.
Five of Middlesbrough's seven Premier League goals have come in the first half this season (71%), a league-high proportion.

Predictions

This should be an easy three points for Arsenal as they come off the back of a 6-0 win over Ludogorets in the Champions League. They’ve now won their last seven matches in all competitions. Middlesbrough haven’t tasted victory in seven games.

Final Score – 3 : 1
