Viktor Gyokeres believes Arsenal are "in a good spot" in all competitions, with Hull City next up in the Premier League as they look to head into the international break with momentum.

Arsenal moved to the top of the league table last weekend after their 1-0 win over Liverpool, coupled with Manchester City's 1-0 loss to Brighton sent them three points clear.

Their only blips so far have been their EFL Cup fourth-round exit to League Two Fleetwood Town, along with a 3-0 defeat to Brighton, but they have still looked very solid despite that.

Arsenal have kept the joint-most clean sheets (six), conceded the fewest goals (five), have the lowest expected goals against (7.24 xGA) and have faced the fewest shots on target (24) in the Premier League this season.

And Gyokeres was pleased with Arsenal's recent form, having helped the team to a 2-1 win over Slavia Prague in the Champions League in midweek with a goal and an assist.

"So far, we've had a good run in the Champions League and in the league as well," he said.

"At the stage we're in right now, we're in a good spot, but I think we're all clear on what we can improve and what we need to do to take the next step."

As for Hull, after a brilliant start to the season, things have started to trail off slightly; they are winless in their last seven Premier League games (D5 L2).

Their five draws are a competition high this term, and they recorded another stalemate last time out in a 2-2 draw with Ipswich Town, giving up their lead to extend their wait for a win.

Oli McBurnie scored for the second game running with a lovely free-kick, and head coach Sergej Jakirovic is hoping he can keep that streak going.

"I had no concerns about Oli because I know what he does and know what he means to this team," Jakirovic said of the striker.

"A lot of the work he does is not easy. A penalty last week, a free-kick this week. Hopefully, next it is a goal from open play for him."

PLAYERS TO WATCH

Arsenal – Declan Rice

Declan Rice has more assists than any other player in the Premier League this season, with his five already as many as he recorded in 36 appearances last term.

All five have come from open play, with this already his most open-play assists in a single campaign.

Hull – Oli McBurnie

McBurnie has applied more high-intensity pressures both overall (598) and in the opposition half (403) than any other player in the Premier League this season.

Last time out against Ipswich, McBurnie scored his first-ever direct free kick in the top-flight, while it was the first by a Hull player in the Premier League since Robert Snodgrass vs Everton in December 2016.

MATCH PREDICTION: ARSENAL WIN

This is the first meeting between Arsenal and Hull in any competition since the 2016-17 Premier League, when the Gunners were victorious in both games (4-1 away, 2-0 home).

And Arsenal are in strong form, given they have won 18 of their last 19 league games against promoted sides (D1) since a 1-0 loss to Nottingham Forest in May 2023. At home, they are unbeaten in 46 (W41 D5), winning the last 17 in a row.

Arsenal have also won each of their last seven Premier League home games, last having a longer run between April and December 2022 (10).

As for Hull, they have won one of their 13 away games against Arsenal in all competitions (D4 L8), a 2-1 victory in their first trip to the Emirates in September 2008 thanks to goals from Geovanni and Daniel Cousin.

This will be Hull's 200th Premier League game (W43 D53 L103). Regardless of the result in this match, they are just one of three teams to lose 100+ of their first 200 in the competition, along with Watford (105) and West Brom (104).
