Burnley are set to play host to Arsenal at Turf Moor on Saturday for their latest English Premier League fixture.
Burnley come into this game on the back of a 1-1 draw against Brendan Rodgers' Leicester City yesterday at Turf Moor. A goal from Czech Republic international Matej Vydra for Burnley was cancelled out by a goal from Nigerian attacker Kelechi Iheanacho for Leicester City.
Arsenal, on the other hand, beat Leicester City 3-1 last Sunday at the King Power Stadium. Goals from experienced Brazilian centre-back David Luiz, French forward Alexandre Lacazette and Ivory Coast international Nicolas Pepe sealed the deal for Mikel Arteta's Arsenal. Belgian midfielder Youri Tielemans scored the consolation goal for the Foxes.

Burnley vs Arsenal Prediction
Burnley are currently 15th in the league table, six points ahead of 18th-placed Fulham, who have played a game less. The ability of Sean Dyche's side to soak pressure and strangle games makes them a tough team to play against.
Arsenal, on the other hand, are 10th in the Premier League table, and have been an inconsistent team throughout the season. They have won only two of their last five league games, and the Gunners have had to rely on young stars like Emile Smith Rowe and Bukayo Saka to get them out of tough situations.
Arsenal have what it takes to beat Burnley, but it will not be an easy match.
Prediction: Burnley 0-1 Arsenal
