Burnley vs Arsenal: Preview, Prediction & Lineups
Arsenal travel to face Burnley at Turf Moor on Saturday afternoon as they look to extend their lead at the top of the Premier League table.
The Gunners secured a 2-0 victory over Brighton last time out to progress to the Carabao Cup quarter-finals. Ethan Nwaneri opened the scoring for his team before Bukayo Saka sealed the victory late in the match.
Burnley secured a dramatic victory in their previous outing, winning 3-2 against Wolves. The Clarets may have let a two-goal lead slip before half-time, but they learned from their mistakes and snatched three points in the fifth minute of stoppage time, lifting them to 16th in the table.
With contrasting situations, both teams will be looking to win this one as every potential victory looks crucial for Arsenal and Burnley. However, this risks becoming a very one-sided affair.
Here’s our preview of the Gunners’ trip to Burnley.

Burnley team news
Lesley Ugochukwu should be available for Burnley despite being dropped late in the win over Wolves.
However, Jordan Beyer, Zeki Amdouni and Connor Roberts will remain out as they continue to battle their respective injuries.
Kyle Walker will likely start at right-back and could look to recreate his Manchester City days by causing Arsenal some problems when possible.
Burnley vs Arsenal predicted line-up: Dubravka; Walker, Tuanzebe, Esteve, Hartman; Florentino, Cullen; Bruun Larsen, Ugochukwu, Anthony; Fleming
Arsenal team news
Arteta heavily rotated his squad for their Carabao Cup encounter with Brighton and it avoided further injury worries for the Spaniard.
However, he will be without Gabriel Martinelli as he continues his recovery from an injury picked up against Crystal Palace last week. Arteta was, however, optimistic about a potential return for William Saliba and confirmed it would be a wait-and-see situation ahead of tomorrow’s game.
Despite Burnley lacking a serious threat, he is likely to field a strong side at Turf Moor as his side look to extend their lead at the top of the Premier League table.
Arsenal’s predicted line-up against Burnley: Raya; Wood, Mosquera, Gabriel, Calafiori; Eze, Zubimendi, Rice; Saka, Gyokères, Trossard
Burnley vs Arsenal score prediction
Arsenal have often been guilty of slip-ups in games like this over the years, but they appear to have eradicated that this season. They should be able to travel to Turf Moor and take three simple points back to London.
Burnley will be ready to cause the Gunners some problems, but Arteta’s side should have no problem eliminating the Clarets.
It should be a straightforward victory for Arsenal on Saturday and most will be convinced that all three points will be theirs at full time.
