Arsenal v Burnley, 15:00
Arsenal have lost one game this season, while Burnley are yet to taste victory in the Premier League in nine attempts with the newly-promoted club bottom as a result, but for the home team at least the stats are misleading somewhat. Only three wins in their first nine matches means the Gunners are fifth in the table and somewhat grateful that Chelsea are the sole team breaking away from the front of the peloton, but an away win over Sunderland last time out may put some zip into the Gunners going forward.
Arsenal midfielder Jack Wilshere is expected to miss this game, Kieran Gibbs faces a fitness test, and Mathieu Debuchy, Yaya Sanogo, Laurent Koscielny, Mesut Ozil, Abou Diaby and Olivier Giroud are all definitely out. Burnley’s Dean Marney s expected to return from a hamstring problem but Steven Reid is still not fit.
