It means Mustafi has now gone 15 Premier League games without defeat this season - more than any other player in the league.

The Gunners have only lost three games this season, against Liverpool on the opening day of the season and back-to-back defeats against Everton and Manchester City in December.

However, the central defender did not make his debut until a 2-1 victory over Southampton in September and missed both December defeats with a hamstring injury.
