Excellent in win

David Raya had five saves and allowed zero goals in Tuesday's 1-0 victory over Sporting CP.

Analysis: Raya saved all five shots he faced during Tuesday's win. The goalkeeper was excellent stopping everything that came his way and earning the clean sheet with his top saves. Raya will be busy trying to secure the tie during the second leg in London.

Registers clean sheet

David Raya had two saves and secured a clean sheet in Tuesday's 2-0 win over Bayer Leverkusen.

Analysis: After leaking goals here and there for the better part of a month, Raya delivered a strong effort in a UCL elimination game with a clean sheet. He'll carry some much-needed momentum into the EFL Cup final against a strong but inconsistent Manchester City team hoping to keep Arsenal's quadruple hopes alive.

Mar 16, 2026

Three saves in victory

David Raya recorded three saves and allowed zero goals in Saturday's 2-0 win over Everton.

Analysis: David Raya turned aside each of the three Everton shots on goal Saturday and made three clearances to earn a clean sheet in a 2-0 home victory. Across his last five starting appearances (all competitions), the veteran keeper has produced 15 saves and eight clearances while conceding three goals and recording two of his league-leading 15 clean sheets. Look for David Raya to feature in net Tuesday when Arsenal face Bayer Leverkusen in the second leg of their Champions League Round of 16 matchup.

Two saves in draw

David Raya had two saves and allowed one goal in Wednesday's 1-1 draw against Bayer Leverkusen.

Analysis: David Raya turned aside two of three Bayer Leverkusen shots on goal Wednesday as Arsenal earned a 1-1 away draw in the first leg of their Champions League Round of 16 matchup. The veteran keeper has made 12 saves and six clearances across his last five starting appearances (all competitions) while averaging one goal concession per appearance. Raya's next test is likely to come Saturday when Arsenal hosts Everton.

Keeps clean sheet

David Raya registered two saves and allowed zero goals in Wednesday's 1-0 victory versus Brighton.

Analysis: After some rough patches of late, Raya had an important clean sheet to get Arsenal back to winning ways and open up a bigger gap at the top of the table. We'll see if Raya gets a breather for Saturday's FA Cup game and if he does, his next start likely comes in UCL action against a Bayer Leverkusen team which was second in the Bundesliga a season ago behind an attack which put in 72 goals in 34 league games.

Impressive display in win

David Raya registered four saves and allowed one goal in Sunday's 2-1 victory against Chelsea.

Analysis: Raya was outstanding and arguably Arsenal's most important player on the night, making crucial saves to secure the win. He was beaten only by an own goal, but that was enough to extend his run without a clean sheet to four straight games, only the second time this season that has happened. Wednesday's clash against Brighton gives him the chance to end that streak.

Concedes once in derby win

Raya made four saves and allowed one goal in Sunday's 4-1 win over Tottenham Hotspur.

Analysis: Raya put together a good performance in the North London Derby Sunday, conceding just one goal to Randal Kolo Muani in the 34th minute. He also made four saves, his most in a Premier League match since Dec. 6. He's now conceded in three consecutive matches, tied for his longest streak this season. Next up he faces a difficult matchup versus Chelsea, a side which has scored 48 goals through 27 matches this season.

Feb 18, 2026

Gives up two goals

David Raya made no saves and allowed two goals in Wednesday's 2-2 draw versus Wolverhampton.

Analysis: Raya was out of position on the final goal of the game, which cost Arsenal two points in the title race. The goalkeeper didn't make any saves in the match either, so this has to go down as one of his worst performances of the season. He'll get some relief against a struggling Tottenham side which has not won a league match since the calendar flipped to 2026.

Feb 12, 2026

Settles for a point

Raya allowed a goal while making two saves during Thursday's 1-1 draw with Brentford.

Analysis: Raya conceded the game tying goal in the 71st minute as Arsenal settled for a point Thursday. The match broke a streak of two straight clean sheets as the keeper has combined for five saves over his last three starts. Arsenal take on Wigan Athletic in the FA Cup on Sunday.

Feb 7, 2026

Two saves in clean sheet

David Raya had two saves and secured a clean sheet in Saturday's 3-0 victory against Sunderland.

Analysis: Raya was not at his sharpest, making two errors over the course of the match, but he redeemed himself with two saves and recorded his 13th clean sheet in the league. The clean sheet keeps him four clean sheets clear of the field in the Golden Glove race, where he is chasing a third consecutive award. He will next feature Thursday on the road against Brentford.

Jan 31, 2026

Logs another clean sheet

David Raya registered one save and allowed zero goals in Saturday's 4-0 win versus Leeds United.

Analysis: Raya got back to his clean sheet ways and only needed to make one save in Saturday's win. He's likely to keep logging clean sheets next Saturday against Sunderland, a team which has scored just 24 goals in 23 league matches.

Jan 25, 2026

Gives up three in loss

David Raya recorded no saves and allowed three goals in Sunday's 3-2 defeat against Manchester United.

Analysis: This was probably Raya's worst showing of the season and he conceded a late winner as well. The goalkeeper should bounce back Wednesday in UCL play against a Kairat team which has only five goals in seven matches but given the condensed schedule, there's also a chance Arsenal goes with someone else in goal for Wednesday's clash.

Jan 20, 2026

Only concedes once

David Raya made three saves and allowed one goal in Tuesday's 3-1 victory against Inter Milan.

Analysis: Raya has been solid in goal for most of the season and delivered another excellent effort on Tuesday, making three saves and conceding just once. He has an interesting matchup looming against Manchester United, a team which is in turmoil but has scored 38 goals in 22 EPL matches.

Jan 17, 2026

Another clean sheet

David Raya registered no saves and secured a clean sheet in Saturday's 0-0 draw against Nottingham Forest.

Analysis: Raya didn't have much to do in this game as Arsenal managed to keep Nottingham Forest at bay offensively. He's likely going to face more activity against Inter Milan on Tuesday, a team which has 12 goals in six UCL matches and 44 goals in 21 Serie A games.

Jan 9, 2026

Easy clean sheet

David Raya made no saves and secured a clean sheet in Thursday's 0-0 draw versus Liverpool.

Analysis: Raya wasn't called on to make a save during Thursday's draw, though Conor Bradley did hit the cross bar in the match. Raya had a quiet day at the office other than that and came away with yet another clean sheet. The defensive excellence in front of him and few chances Arsenal allows in general make Raya a nearly unmatched goalkeeper in terms of clean sheets.

Jan 3, 2026

Concedes two goals

David Raya made one save and allowed two goals in Saturday's 3-2 victory versus AFC Bournemouth.

Analysis: It's hard to fault Raya much on either goal, though it can be argued he was out of position on both. The goalkeeper nearly had a clean sheet last time against Liverpool and will look to replicate that effort against the Reds on Thursday. Liverpool has scored 30 goals in 19 EPL games.

Dec 30, 2025

Loses clean sheet late

David Raya had two saves and allowed one goal in Tuesday's 4-1 win against Aston Villa.

Analysis: Raya nearly had another clean sheet if not for a late goal from Ollie Watkins. The goalkeeper has an interesting matchup coming up against Bournemouth, a side in the bottom half of the table but one that has scored 29 goals in 19 games.

Dec 28, 2025

Allows goal in second half

David Raya recorded two saves and allowed one goal in Saturday's 2-1 win versus Brighton.

Analysis: Raya was solid in the first half but conceded in the second half to tighten things up for Arsenal. He hasn't had to do much in terms of making saves this season but will need to be great against Aston Villa on Tuesday. Aston Villa is one of two sides to register a domestic win over Arsenal this season.

Dec 20, 2025

Keeps another clean sheet

David Raya recorded one save and allowed zero goals in Saturday's 1-0 victory versus Everton.

Analysis: Raya secured another clean sheet to keep up his hot play to start this season but he wasn't tested much as he only had to make one save. He should see more work against Brighton, a team which has scored 25 goals in 17 EPL matches.

Dec 13, 2025

Concedes one goal

David Raya registered one save and allowed one goal in Saturday's 2-1 victory versus Wolverhampton.

Analysis: Raya gave up a crucial late goal but got bailed out by a Wolves error in stoppage time. He only made one save, so it wasn't like he had much work to do otherwise. He has an interesting matchup coming up against Everton, a side which is surprisingly near the top of the EPL table and has 18 goals in 16 matches.
