Arsenal make the trip to face Burnley at Turf Moor on Saturday afternoon as they look to build on their lead at the top of the Premier League table.

The Gunners secured a 2-0 win over Brighton last time out to progress to the quarter-finals of the Carabao Cup. Ethan Nwaneri opened the scoring for his side before Bukayo Saka sealed the win late on.

Burnley managed a dramatic victory in their previous outing, winning 3-2 at Wolves. The Clarets did let a two-goal lead slip before half-time, but they learned from their mistakes and went onto snatch the three points in the fifth minute of stoppage time, lifting them to 16th in the table.

With contrasting situations, both sides will be looking to win this one as every potential victory looks to be crucial for Arsenal and Burnley. However, this has the potential to be a very one-sided affair.

Here's our preview of the Gunners' trip to Burnley.

Burnley team news

Lesley Ugochukwu is expected to be available for Burnley despite being forced off late on in the win at Wolves.

However, Jordan Beyer, Zeki Amdouni and Connor Roberts will remain absent as they continue to fight their respective injuries.

Kyle Walker will likely start at right back and could look to recreate his Manchester City days by causing Arsenal a few problems where possible.

Predicted Burnley lineup vs Arsenal: Dubravka; Walker, Tuanzebe, Esteve, Hartman; Florentino, Cullen; Bruun Larsen, Ugochukwu, Anthony; Flemming


Arsenal team news

Arteta heavily rotated his side for their Carabao Cup meeting with Brighton and that has prevented there being any fresh injury worries for the Spaniard.

However, he will have to be without Gabriel Martinelli as he continues his recovery from an injury he picked up against Crystal Palace last week. Arteta was optimistic about a potential return for William Saliba though and confirmed it will be a wait-and-see situation ahead of tomorrow's game.

Despite Burnley's lack of serious threat, he is likely to field a strong side at Turf Moor as his side look to extend their lead at the top of the Premier League table.

Predicted Arsenal lineup vs Burnley: Raya; Timber, Mosquera, Gabriel, Calafiori; Eze, Zubimendi, Rice; Saka, Gyokeres, Trossard


Burnley vs Arsenal score prediction

Arsenal have often been guilty of slipping up in games like this over the years, but they seem to have eradicated that this season. They should be able to go to Turf Moor and take a straightforward three points back home to London.

Burnley will be prepared to cause the Gunners a few problems, but Arteta's side should have no problem seeing out the Clarets.

It should be a simple victory for Arsenal on Saturday and most will be confident that the three points will belong to them at full-time.

Prediction: Burnley 0-2 Arsenal
