Mike Arteta's men avoided losing three games in a row for the first time since April 2022 after they secured a comfortable mid-week win over Sevilla in the Champions League.

There's little cheer to be had at the 16/1-priced Clarets who have lost their last five successive league and cup matches.
They are 19th in the table with just one win from 11 matches since returning to the Promised Land.

Arsenal vs Burnley Tips
Bukayo Saka may have fired blanks in his last three Premier League matches, but the winger was in fine fettle during the 2-0 win over Sevilla, in which he assisted the opener and then scored.
He has the potential to run riot against a woefully out-of-form Burnley side that have failed to keep a clean sheet this season and conceded 27 goals in just 11 games, 14 of which have come in their last five matches.
BetMGM have priced Saka up at 23/20 to have Over 1.5 Shots On Target - with the same bet 4/6 at bet365 - a mark Saka has crossed in three of his five league home games this season.
Josh Cullen is expected to return to Burnley's starting-11 following a suspension for picking up five yellow cards already this season - only three Premier League players have accumulated more cards so far this term.
We are going to snap up the 9/4 on offer with Sky Bet for the defensive midfielder to make a swift return to the referee's book against Arsenal, who are expected to dominate possession on home soil this weekend.
Cullen has been shown a yellow in each of his last three Premier League appearances, while four of his five yellows this season have come on the road, including recent visits to Brentford and Bournemouth.
