Arsenal aiming to continue perfect goalscoring streak against Watford

Arsenal will aim to continue their perfect Premier League goalscoring streak against Watford when they pay a visit to Vicarage Road on Sunday.

The Gunners made hard work of their 1-0 win over the Hornets at the Emirates back in November but ultimately got over the line thanks to Emile Smith Rowe's effort.

That 1-0 triumph represented Arsenal's fifth win from their last six against their London rivals, who have struggled to keep the back door shut against the Gunners in recent years.

Should Mikel Arteta's side find the back of the net at Vicarage Road, it will mark the 15th time in 15 Premier League matches that they have managed to score against Watford.

Only against West Bromwich Albion do Arsenal also boast a 100% goalscoring success rate in the Premier League, with the capital club making the net ripple in all 26 of their meetings with the Baggies in the competition so far.

Not since a 1-0 First Division defeat in 1988 have Arsenal failed to score against Watford, and the Gunners head into the weekend sixth in the Premier League table - two points behind Manchester United with three games in hand.
