Diwali is called the Festival of Lights and is celebrated to honor Rama-chandra, the seventh avatar (incarnation of the god Vishnu).
It is believed that on this day Rama returned to his people after 14 years of exile during which he fought and won a battle against the demons and the demon king, Ravana.
Arsenal will play their next match against Sporting CP in the Europa League while Manchester United face Juventus in the Champions League on Wednesday.
Tottenham Hotspur, on the other hand defeated PSV Eindhoven, thanks to a brace from their star striker Harry Kane.
