Arsenal are two wins away from their first Premier League title in 22 years as they take on Burnley in their final home match of the season.
Leandro Trossard scored a late winner in Arsenal’s last match, which ended with the controversial VAR overturn of West Ham’s equaliser. It means the fate of the title race remains in Mikel Arteta’s hands – two wins will see the Gunners home.
Burnley, already relegated, registered a respectable point against Aston Villa last time out but caretaker boss Michael Jackson will have his work cut out on what is sure to be a memorable occasion at the Emirates.
The last time these two met, Vikrot Gyokeres and Declan Rice were on the scoresheet in a comfortable 2-0 win at Turf Moor in November.
