Danny Welbeck scored his sixth goal in Arsenal colours and also ended a run of six matches in all competitions without having found the net.

As for the hosting Baggies, they have won just one of their last seven Premier League games.

No West Brom player has scored a goal in any of the club's last four outings.


Burnley 1-1 Aston Villa

When Joe Cole found the net, he became just the third different player to score for Villa this season.

However, the draw means that Paul Lambert's men are without a victory from their last nine Premier League encounters.

The late converted penalty means that Danny Ings has scored four goals in his previous five outings.

Match-winner Glen Johnson scored his first goal for the Reds since December 2012.

Stoke's wait for a victory at Anfield goes on, having not won there since back in 1959.
