Arsenal 3/5 to beat Burnley in Sunday’s Premier League battle

Competition: Premier League

Market: Arsenal to beat Burnley

Odds: 3/5 @ Bet365

Footballing action returns to its more usual position on the weekend as the Premier League continues to heat up. Despite the fact that Manchester City have a commanding lead at the top, the rest of the league remains incredibly tight, with many teams separated by just a few points. With this in mind, there is a big clash in the upper-half of the table as Burnley host Arsenal on Sunday.

Burnley have been flying high this season, and they are looking like a very good team this campaign. The hosts have been able to win six times, draw four games and lose just twice. Incredibly, Burnley, along with Manchester United and Liverpool have lost the fewest games this season (2) when discounting unbeaten Manchester City. 12 goals scored is a fairly modest record, but they have shown their strength defensively, conceding just nine goals this term. With the relegation zone currently 12 points further back, Burnley may already be thinking about how high they can finish in the league, rather than just securing safety.

For Arsenal, things are looking up following their 2-0 win over Tottenham last Saturday. The win, which kept them in sixth place, saw them close the gap between themselves and Spurs to just a single point, with fourth-place within their reach. Their game with Burnley is a superb chance to stamp their authority over their opponents, with the hosts proving to be something of a surprise package this season. With this in mind, we are backing the visitors with odds of 3/5 from Bet365.
