Arsenal will face Manchester United in the Premier League 2024/25 match at Emirates Stadium in London on Wednesday 4 December, 2024 at 21:15 (WAT).
According to arsenal.com:
The very first was more than 18 years ago back in August 2006 when we drew 1-1 with Aston Villa in the Premier League which Gilberto Silva scored our equaliser. Our playing record for the first 499 games is 335 wins with 93 draws and 71 defeats, meaning our win percentage at the stadium is 67%. we have scored 1,064 goals or 2.13 per game, and conceded just 427.
Unsurprisingly, the vast majority of our 499 matches so far have been in the Premier League. We’ve played 348 league games at Emirates Stadium (69.7% of the total) winning 230, drawing 72 and losing the other 46. We’ve taken 762 points from those 348 games, at a rate of 2.19 per game, and scored 732 goals, at 2.1 per game.
The stadium has also hosted 90 European matches so far (62 in the Champions League, 28 in the Europa League) – we’ve won 61 and scored 201 goals.
