Burnley v Arsenal: match preview

Burnley v Arsenal: probable starters in bold, contenders in light Illustration: Guardian

Burnley are now level on points with Arsenal in the table and arguably in better league form with wins in their last two Premier League games. The visit of Mikel Arteta’s side to Turf Moor was originally viewed as the last challenge in a gruelling sequence of games against top sides that Burnley would be glad to put behind them, but after beating Leicester and Manchester United to climb to mid-table Sean Dyche and his players have every reason to be confident.
