THIRD October 1992.
This match was Arsenal πŸŸ₯⬜ v Chelsea 🟦🟦. Played at Highbury, this game was under the New 'Premier League' era. Arsenal won the match 2 - 1, Paul Merson ⚽πŸ₯… and Ian Wright ⚽πŸ₯… scored the Arsenal goals. Dennis Wise had scored the equaliser for Chelsea.
This London Derby attracted a crowd of 27,780. A reduced crowd I believe, due to the North Bank Stand being rebuilt.
