Arsenal are top of the Premier League on 25 points – which is about the average (24.7) for the eventual champions to have after 10 games.
In 14 of the 33 Premier League seasons to date the team top at this stage have gone on to win the title.
But only seven times has a team on 19 points, the tally of second-placed Manchester City, or 18 points, which is what Liverpool, Sunderland and Bournemouth are on, after 10 games won the title.
Nobody has ever done it from fewer points, which would ‘rule out’ any other hopefuls.
Arsenal lead City by six points, which is the exact most points a team have ever come from behind at this stage to win a title.
Manchester United in 2002-03 and Manchester City in 2013-14 are the two to do that.
But if you believe in omens, this might not be a good one for the Gunners…
That season City did it, they had 19 points and Arsenal had 25. The exact same totals as this season.
The Gunners ended up finishing fourth.
