This Saturday afternoon Burnley FC is travelling to the Emirates stadium to play Arsenal in their tenth match of the Premier League season.

The teams haven’t played each other since 2010 when Arsenal beat Burnley 3 – 1. In December 2009 Burnley drew 1 – 1 with Arsenal but in March 2009 Arsenal beat Burnley 3 – 0. The last time Burnley beat Arsenal was in December 2008 when they won 2 – 0.

As a result it is no surprise that Arsenal is the bookies’ favourite to win the match with odds of 2/7. The odds on Burnley winning are 9/1 while a draw has been set at 9/2.

Arsenal is currently fifth in the league with 14 points having won 3 games, drawn 5 and lost 1. Burnley is bottom of the league with just 4 points having drawn 4 games and lost 5.

Last weekend Arsenal enjoyed a 2 – 0 victory over Sunderland and Burnley lost 3 – 1 to Everton.

Arsenal is missing a number of players due to injury: Laurent Koscielny, David Ospina, Olivier Giroud and Mesut Ozil. Burnley is missing Sam Vokes.
