Arsenal vs Burnley MATCH FACTS One of the things often said about the Premier League is that anyone can beat anyone else on their day. They trot that one out along with the there are no easy games in international football line. Well, believe me, Im trying, and I love a good upset as much as anyone, but its hard to see Burnley winning at Arsenal. Head-to-head Arsenal are unbeaten in their last five top-flight matches against Burnley. The Gunners have lost only one of their last 12 top-flight home matches against the Clarets (1-0 in September 1974). Burnley were the first lower league side to beat an Arsene Wenger Arsenal team when they won 2-0 in the 2008-09 League Cup. Arsenal Arsenal have been behind in each of their four home league games this season. Arsene Wengers side are unbeaten in their last 22 home Premier League matches, winning 14 and drawing eight. However, they have kept just two clean sheets in their last 10 league games at the Emirates Stadium. They have won just three of their nine league matches this season. The last time they won only three out of their first 10 league matches was in 1981-82. Arsenal have scored four 90th-minute goals this season, two more than any other team in the Premier League. They are unbeaten in their last 14 league matches against promoted opposition. Alexis Sanchez has scored eight goals in his last 11 appearances for Arsenal in all competitions. Burnley Burnley have conceded 12 goals in their last four league games after keeping clean sheets in their three previous matches. The Clarets are the 12th side to fail to win any of their opening nine matches of a Premier League - seven of the previous 11 teams were relegated. The last time they went longer without a win from the start of a season was in 1970-71 (14 games). Jason Shackell is the first Premier League player to make over 100 clearances this season. Prediction Arsenals 2-0 win over Sunderland was only their 3rd victory of the season and they will look to make it 4 from 10 when they meet Burnley. 3 points on Saturday could lift them into the top 4 provided results go their way. Burnley foot the Premier Legaue this term and are the only team yet to pick up a win. The Clarets are struggling to adjust to the rigours of Englands top tier and their problems should worsen here. The Gunners are a far superior team and have enough about them to secure the share of the spoils.
