Arsenal

Arsenal welcome Burnley to the Emirates, in the second of the Super Sunday fixtures.

The Gunners will be looking to keep up with the top three, with Liverpool and Tottenham within reach.

Clarets Continue Form

Sean Dyche's side come into this match on the back of another great home win, albeit in the FA Cup against Sunderland.

It was a result that saw David Moyes bemoan the lack of squad depth, with the Black Cats in desperate need of recruitment.

Sean Dyche will be delighted, they have an excellent chance of staying up, a cup run alongside it would be great for the club.

Burnley Underdogs

The Clarets excellent home record continues, they will look to register their first away win of the season.

Their record along with Leicester is the worst in English football, let alone the Premier League.

Sean Dyche's men will be looking to better their overall form against Arsenal, with Burnley winning 28, drawing 18 and losing 39 of 85 meetings.

Burnley are 12/1 with Andre Gray at 11/1 to open the scoring.

 

The second fixture sees Chelsea take on Hull at Stamford Bridge. Chelsea have returned to winning ways after Tottenham ended their record winning streak.

Chelsea welcome Hull to Stamford Bridge in the final Super Sunday fixture, with both sides in winning form.

The Blues come into this match on the back of a 3-0 win against Leicester, with N'Golo Kante enjoying a successful return to the King Power.
