Arsenal's Nine Wins in Ten Games Rank Among Best Premier League Starts

Arsenal have won nine of their first 10 Premier League games in the 2026/27 season, a start that ranks among the best openings in Premier League history, according to Football365. The report places Mikel Arteta's side seventh on the list with 27 points from 10 matches, a record of nine wins, no draws and one defeat, with 15 goals scored and five conceded for a goal difference of +10.

The report notes that Arsenal's 15 goals scored stands out compared with other fast starts on the list, describing a team that has prioritized winning narrowly, including four 1-0 victories so far. The source does not name the opponent or date of Arsenal's single defeat.

Arsenal's 2022/23 side also opened with 27 points from nine wins and one loss, scoring 24 and conceding 10, but finished as runners-up after a run of four league games without a win in April, including a 4-1 defeat to Manchester City. The top starts listed are Manchester City's 2017/18 and 2011/12 teams, each with 28 points from nine wins and a draw, alongside Liverpool in 2019/20 and Chelsea in 2005/06, all of whom went on to win the title. Newcastle United's 1995/96 side also opened with 27 points but finished second.
