Prior to that, you'd need to go back all the way to 1947 for the previous time these two clubs met. Brentford famously opened the Premier League season last year with a 2-0 home victory over Arsenal. Thomas Frank's men are unbeaten at home thus far, taking two wins from three Premier League matches at the Gtech Community Stadium. Due to recent match postponements following the death of Queen Elizabeth II, neither of these teams have played for more than a week. Arsenal finished fifth in the Premier League last season. However, a number of games have had to be postponed this weekend too. We’ll bring you all the build-up, live updates and reaction, so don’t go anywhere! Sky Sports is covering the game in the UK.

Minute-by-minute report: Live updates as Mikel Arteta's side return to action. Join Daniel Harris.

[Arsenal](https://www.theguardian.com/football/arsenal), there’s good news and bad news. Brentford are a terrific team, bristling, canny and intense, and also won this fixture at the start of last term – in what, to Gary Neville at least, seemed like a watershed moment for both sides. Recency bias is a tedious thing, but please bear with me when I say that: in the 40 years I’ve been watching football and “this league” in particular, the standard of entertainment has never been as high as it is this season. The 5-3-2 makes a lot of sense in that context, because while Arsenal are improving, I’m still not sold on their back four, and I daresay “One of the many doubts, worries and general angsty preoccupations of the Arsenal fan is the state of Thomas Partey’s legs,” says Charles Antaki. 1 min Arsenal go back to Ramsdale, who drills forward and sets them on the attack. But when it happens, they sometimes lack a presence in the middle, so Vieira will need to compensate. 21 min Gabriel is down having a knee-rub, and he looks in a bit of pain. Saka’s delivery is excellent, Saliba wins the flick-on at the near post, ahead of Toney who’s not playing proper attention, and the ball flies in, Raya’s desperate claw unable to drag it away from the line. He’s still got work to do – there’s not much action on the delivery, to he needs to really flex his neck to punish a header into the top corner, but he does it with all the ease you’d expect of a quality player on a buzz. A team with as many good players as they have will sometimes play well, but the ability to turn what looks like a tricky match into a cruise evidences a side that knows exactly what it’s doing. But they do maintain some pressure, aided by Jesus who tries a chapeau and loses possession to Jensen down the right.

Mikel Arteta won the first Premier League Manager of the Month award this season. Last season, eight different managers won the award and only one won their next game. Will Arteta feel the force of the "curse" today against Brentford?

Saka nearly netted a fourth in the 66th when he drew a one-handed save from Raya with another long-distance effort. Brentford was coming off a 5-2 home win over Leeds and also beat Manchester United 4-0 at the Gtech Community Stadium but barely had a sight of goal against a solid Arsenal defence.

The attacking midfielder has recorded four goals and assists in four league games between the Under-18 and Under-21 this campaign.

Erling Haaland has now scored 11 in seven Premier League games and is firmly on track to beat the single-season record held by Alan Shearer and Andy Cole.

Other records very much in Haaland’s sights are Kevin Phillips’ mark of 30 in a debut season for Sunderland in 1999-2000 and Jamie Vardy’s record of scoring in 11 consecutive Premier League games, set for Leicester in 2015.

There are a number of records for Haaland to aim for in his debut season at Manchester City. In three seasons at Dortmund, the Norwegian missed a total of 28 games in all competitions though a variety of issues, although most were relatively small problems. Erling Haaland broke yet another debut season record in the Premier League when he found the net for Manchester City against Wolves on Saturday. The question now appears to be not so much if Haaland will break every other Premier League scoring record, but when.

Haaland is now the first man ever to score in all of his first four Premier League away games, with strikes against West Ham, Newcastle, Aston Villa and Wolves. It feels like the Portugal star is back to his best, and it’s hard to see how anyone gets in the team ahead of him for the foreseeable future. The centre-back has slotted into the team effortlessly, ticking all of the boxes you need a Pep defender to tick. While he was by no means seen as a bad player, the former exciting youngster had seen his stock fall somewhat after an unremarkable period at Dortmund, and wasn’t being touted for a move to a big club until City came in for him. Two more assists today - eerily similar low crosses turned in by each of the English wingers - makes it six in six starts and puts the Belgian well on his way to smashing that record. The former Aston Villa skipper is one of the most talented dribblers in the league and when he uses those skills positively, he’s a serious problem for defenders.

Similarly, it seems staying open and not confining Nwaneri’s future will be the way forward. That can be seen in Arsenal not wanting to limit him position-wise. Nwaneri’s goalscoring is encouraging, but it is his ability to see a pass and stay on the ball under pressure that has stood out. If you’re going to be on that bench you have to be ready. The doors are open to explore where they can go. He still impressed, scoring and assisting twice, but was moved between that squad and the under-16s. His movement between age groups was not seen as something being done for the sake of it.

I understand the frustrations of supporters and I can’t hide from that. But I have every confidence the team can push on and climb the table. Rodgers lost captain and keeper Kasper Schmeichel in the transfer window, while star defender Wesley Fofana forced through a big-money move to Chelsea. Meanwhile, Rodgers was able to sign only one player, Wout Faes, in the entire window. “I was really disappointed, but I knew the goal was coming and I wasn’t worried about it. Just seven rounds into the season, three Premier League managers have already moved on – first it was Bournemouth, then Chelsea, before Brighton were forced to replace Graham Potter after he left for the Blues. I was working hard and always want to help the team.” “I’m not daft, I know football, and the last six games don’t make great reading. With a seventh-place finish in the Premier League and an appearance in the Europa League semi-finals last season, much was expected of West Ham United this season. “Looking at the quality, they must be title contenders.” “Whatever their decision is, I will always respect it.
