Arsenal beat Nottingham Forest 1-0 in the Premier League on October 19, 2026, Noni Madueke scoring a deflected winner after replacing Eberechi Eze at half-time. It was the sixth straight game Arsenal failed to score in the first half, and they have now won 18 matches by a one-goal margin over the last two seasons, more than any side in Europe's top five leagues. The discussion is whether Arteta has a long-term answer on the left and whether the set-piece threat has flipped, with Arsenal yet to score from a set piece this season.
