Arsenal 10th | Coventry City 9th (20)

The champions receive their trophy before the game and get over their opening day defeat at Old Trafford. City almost spoil the party but are finally breached by Marwood’s header. Thomas swivels and hammers in the second. Golden boot winner Alan Smith is well held by Kilcline.
