Arsenal's top four pursuit remained on track on Sunday as they completed a league double over relegation-threatened Watford at Vicarage Road.
Mikel Arteta named an unchanged XI from the side which secured a last-gasp victory over Wolverhampton Wanderers last time out, with Takehiro Tomiyasu and Emile Smith Rowe still not ready to return.
The hosts gave Arsenal an early scare, with Emmanuel Dennis finding the net inside 20 seconds but being denied by an offside flag, but Arsenal shook off the nerves to take a fifth-minute lead through Martin Odegaard.
