"The leaders are at Turf Moor this afternoon looking to go seven points clear at the top of the table. Mikel Arteta has a decent record away at Burnley as Arsenal manager: played four, won two, drawn two including a 5-0 rout of Vincent Kompany's side on their last visit. Liverpool are the only team to win at Turf Moor in the league this season, with Scott Parker appearing to make a better fist of staying in the top flight than Kompany did."
"Chelsea have made Spurs' new stadium a happy hunting ground since their move from White Hart Lane, especially in the last couple of seasons. Ange Postecoglou lost both league games at home to Chelsea, including last season's 4-3 thriller that saw the visitors recover from conceding two goals in the first 11 minutes. Thomas Frank is unlikely to throw caution to the wind today. The Dane's pragmatic approach is in contrast to Enzo Maresca's possession-based system."
Arsenal visit Turf Moor aiming to go seven points clear at the top of the Premier League. Mikel Arteta holds a solid away record at Burnley, including a 5-0 victory on the last visit. Burnley have lost at Turf Moor only to Liverpool in the league this season, with Scott Parker appearing to improve their top-flight prospects relative to Vincent Kompany. The title race looks difficult to overturn given Liverpool, City and Chelsea’s current limitations. Tottenham host Chelsea, where Chelsea have enjoyed success at Spurs’ new stadium and tactical contrasts shape the matchup.
