Burnley News & Analysis

 

Newcomers in the Premier League, Burnley have won their last two league matches against Leeds United and Wolverhampton Wanderers. This gave the team some stability – they are not in the relegation zone anymore.

 

Last weekend the Clarets had a trip to Wolverhampton where they celebrated a tough, but sweet 3-2 win against Wolves. Zian Flemming emerged as a hero for Burnley as he scored twice, thanks to a brace of assists from Quil Hartman. The decisive third goal for the visitors was scored by Lyle Foster in the last few minutes of the game.

 

Anthony Jaidon is one of the most dangerous players in Burnley’s team. The striker has scored three Premier League goals since the beginning of the season. He will wait for opportunities against Arsenal as well.

 

Arsenal News & Analysis

 

Arsenal showed some champion mentality in their last league game against Crystal Palace at home. It wasn’t easy at all at the Emirates, but Eberechi Eze’s first league goal for the club provided a precious win. Eze scored against his former team at the Emirates.

 

This game proved that Arsenal could be ready to win the title again. These type of matches are the ones that make you a champion. And the Gunners won it.

 

Some changes could be made in Arsenal’s team for the sake of rotations. Mikel Merino started from the bench against Palace, but he could return in the starting eleven. The Brazilian winger Gabriel Martinelli is also an option for Arsenal’s attack here – Leandro Trossard could sit on the bench.
