Burnley v Arsenal Prediction

While Burnley's defensive solidity could frustrate Arsenal, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang's return could prove to be a massive boost for the away side, as their talisman and captain returns after a 3 match suspension. Burnley have a stellar home record in the Premier League for a promoted side since achieving promotion in 2015.

A close contest could well be on the cards, with the Gunners registering a hard-fought victory to keep their diminishing hopes of securing a top-four spot alive.

Aubameyang's return to lead the line could be a defining factor, with the Gabonese international set to lead the line alongside Gabriel Martinelli and Nicolas Pepe. The Gunners' frontline could prove to be too much to handle for the home side and could return to London with all three points.
