Arsenal have dropped just five points from their opening 14 Premier League fixtures and will sit top of the table at Christmas.
The Gunners are the only Premier League side to maintain a 100% record at home so far this season after Manchester City were beaten 2-1 by Brentford at the Etihad Stadium heading into the World Cup break. Mikel Arteta's side were able to capitalise on their rivals dropping points with a 2-0 win at Molineux against Wolves thanks to club captain Martin Odegaard's brace, moving Arsenal five points clear of the reigning champions.
Gabriel Jesus and Oleksandr Zinchenko switched to the Emirates Stadium from City in the summer transfer window as Arteta poached his former side for two star players that helped improve Arsenal. William Saliba's impressive form after his return from a successful loan spell with Marseille has been one of the many catalysts for the Gunners leading the way in the English top-flight ahead of the second half of the season.
