Arsenal step into their final home fixture of the season with history firmly on their side. Catch all the action LIVE on SuperSport, kick-off at 9pm CAT.
Burnley have been a familiar opponent, but rarely a threatening one – the Gunners have lost just once in 19 Premier League meetings, that solitary slip a 1-0 defeat back in December 2020. Across those encounters, Burnley have never managed more than a single goal in a game, a record that underlines Arsenal’s dominance in this matchup.
The Emirates has become a fortress against promoted sides. Arsenal are unbeaten in 44 such home league games since 2010, winning the last 15 by an aggregate of 43-9. Their record in final home fixtures is equally imposing: only one defeat in 28 seasons, with 12 wins and two draws since Aston Villa edged them in 2011.
Burnley, meanwhile, arrive with little momentum. Just one win in their last 27 league outings tells its own story, and their record in final away games is modest – only twice have they signed off with victory, against Aston Villa in 2015 and Norwich in 2020.
Arsenal’s defensive steel has been a hallmark this season, with 16 clean-sheet victories, seven of them by the narrowest of margins. Leandro Trossard’s late strike at West Ham, set up by substitute Martin Ødegaard, was another reminder of their bench’s impact – no side has had more goals or assists from substitutes.
Up front, Viktor Gyökeres has thrived at the Emirates, with nine of his 14 league goals coming on home soil. He joins a select group of debut-season scorers at Arsenal, standing alongside Thierry Henry, Olivier Giroud, and Alexandre Lacazette in reaching double figures at home.
All signs point to Arsenal closing out their campaign with authority, while Burnley face the daunting task of breaking patterns that have defined this fixture for over a decade.
