Arsenal vs Burnley - 23/01/2022
3579
There are four fixtures to be played in the English Premier League on Sunday the 23rd of January including the meeting between Arsenal and Burnley.
The match will be played at the Emirates Stadium and the hosts begin the weekend in 6th place on 35 points while the visitors are bottom of the table on 11 points but with games in hand on the teams above them in the league.
Arsenal come into the match on the back of a disappointing 2-0 defeat at home against Liverpool in the League Cup semi-final on Thursday night.
Having fought hard to come away from the first leg with a 0-0 draw, Arsenal were not at their best and Liverpool deserved to come away with the victory.
That result means Arsenal have failed to win any of their last 4 fixtures in all competitions. They were eliminated from the FA Cup by Nottingham Forest away from home, held Liverpool to a 0-0 draw in the League Cup, and lost 2-1 at home against Manchester City, although The Gunners put in a good performance in the latter.
Form in the Premier League shows Arsenal have won 4 of their 5 most recent matches. They have defeated Southampton and West Ham United at home plus Leeds United and Norwich City away.
Trends show Arsenal are undefeated in 11 of their last 12 home games in all competitions and they have scored in each of their last 12 matches on home soil.
Burnley make the trip to the Emirates Stadium having last played a game on the 8th of January in the FA Cup. The match ended in a disappointing 2-1 defeat at home against Huddersfield Town and Burnley have failed to win any of their 8 most recent games in all competitions.
Form in the Premier League shows Burnley have recorded just a single victory from their last 20 fixtures, which is a poor record. They have failed to win any of their last 11 away league games, losing each of their 3 most recent away trips at Newcastle United, Manchester United, and Leeds United.
Trends show Burnley have scored in 4 of their 6 most recent away Premier League matches but they have managed to keep just one clean sheet in their last 11 away league games.
Looking ahead to the team news and Arsenal are without Nicolas Pepe, Mohamed Elneny, and Pierre Emerick Aubameyang due to the Africa Cup of Nations. Thomas Partey is available having returned from international duty on Thursday but Cedric Soares is a doubt due to a hip injury.
Burnley travel with doubts over Erik Pieters, Johann Berg Gudmundsson, and Nathan Collins due to COVID-19. Maxwel Cornet is at the Africa Cup of Nations, Ashley Barnes is injured and Connor Roberts is a doubt due to a virus.
Arsenal will want to get back to winning ways and this is the perfect opportunity. Burnley are in poor form and have been struggling to fulfil their fixtures of late. The away team may score a goal but Arsenal should have enough to take maximum points.
