PREVIEW: Arsenal v Burnley

The Clarets hit the road for their opening away game of the campaign with another first in their sights.

Burnley are yet to take a point from the Emirates Stadium in five previous visits and haven’t beaten Arsenal in the top-flight since Peter Noble scored the only goal of the game at Highbury 45 years ago next month.

But Sean Dyche’s side has come close to holding the Gunners both home and away – only to be denied by disputed late goals on three different occasions.

And have seen his side launch the season in perfect style with a 3-0 victory over Southampton last weekend, Dyche hopes the balance is about to be redressed against an Unai Emery side that has splashed the cash this summer and also made a winning start.
