Arsenal secured their fifth Premier League win of the season with a comfortable win over Bournemouth. Odegaard was the architect of the opener, finding Jesus with a fantastic cross from the left. His header crashed the post, with the rebound going to Saka, who headed in from close range. The Gunners' second came from the penalty spot after Nketiah was fouled in the box by Aarons. Odegaard took responsibility and rolled his spot-kick into the bottom corner. Arteta's side then added a third soon after the restart. Christie was punished for a late tackle in the box on Odegaard, with Havertz stepping up to score his first goal for Arsenal. Jesus then went close to adding a third after driving into the box from the right, but he blasted his attempt across the goal and wide of the post. Neto then denied Smith Rowe a goal off the bench before White scored a fourth. The defender got on the end of Odegaard's free-kick and flicked his header into the net.
