- Three wins and one defeat from four Premier League road games, conceding 0.5 goals per match.
- Viktor Gyoekeres is their focal point up front.

Burnley
- They’re on a current two-game winning run, but have won just two and lost three of their previous five games. That’s an important factor to consider for our Burnley vs Arsenal betting tips.
- They have lost away to Aston Villa, beaten Leeds at home, and won away to Wolves.
- Eight goals scored in their last five league outings suggests they’re contributing at the other end.
- Zian Flemming has found his rhythm with three in the last five, while top scorer Jaidon Anthony has four Premier League goals in nine games.
- They’ve won two, drawn one and lost one of their four home games this term, scoring 1.25 and conceding just 0.5 per game.
Head-to-Head
- Burnley’s Scott Parker has instilled a pragmatic, structure-first philosophy since taking the helm in July 2024.
- The Clarets prefer to play narrow and structured, with a double pivot providing the platform for their 4-2-3-1 formation.
- In Parker’s Burnley, players mark tightly and remain compact, before either countering quickly with numbers forward or exploiting set-pieces.
- In Mikel Arteta, Arsenal have a possession-based, high-pressing 4-3-3 with wide overloads and positional rotations.
- This fixture represents a real clash of styles between Arsenal’s flair and Burnley’s compact pragmatism, which makes the Burnley vs Arsenal betting tips particularly intriguing.
- Arsenal have won the last two meetings, including a 5-0 win here last season.
