Recent meeting: Arsenal's emphatic victory at Turf Moor
February's five-goal masterclass
The most recent encounter between these two sides took place on February 17, 2024, and saw Arsenal produce one of their most impressive away performances of the season, thrashing Burnley 5-0 at Turf Moor. The comprehensive victory came at a crucial time in Arsenal's title challenge, keeping them just two points behind leaders Liverpool while demonstrating their ruthless streak.
Arsenal continued their habit of scoring early goals, taking the lead after just four minutes. Martin Odegaard gave the visitors the perfect start, drilling home the opener to set the tone for what would become a dominant display. The Norwegian captain's early strike put Burnley on the back foot from the opening whistle.
Bukayo Saka doubled the lead from the penalty spot before halftime after Leandro Trossard was brought down by a desperate lunge from Lorenz Assignon when through on goal. The England international squeezed his penalty low into the corner, down to James Trafford's left, for his 14th goal of the campaign and his fourth successful penalty out of four that season.
Saka began the second half with a tremendous second goal, showcasing his individual quality. Trossard then piled on further misery in the 66th minute, curling the ball past Trafford inside the box to make it 4-0.
Kai Havertz wrapped up the scoring with a superb solo goal in the 79th minute. Taking Jakub Kiwior's long throw in his stride, the German surged into the box and nutmegged Hannes Delcroix before slotting the ball past Trafford, ending a seven-match goal drought in spectacular fashion.
Historic achievement
The victory represented a remarkable achievement for Arsenal - scoring five or more goals in back-to-back away matches for the first time in their history. They became the first top-flight side to score 5+ goals in consecutive away games since Liverpool in October 2021. The emphatic win came on the back of their 6-0 demolition of West Ham the previous weekend, meaning Arsenal had scored 11 goals in just two away matches.
The comprehensive nature of the victory highlighted Arsenal's title credentials and their ability to be ruthless against teams in the lower reaches of the table. For Burnley, sitting 19th on 13 points and seven points from safety, it extended their winless run to seven matches.

December 2020 - Burnley 1-0 Arsenal (Emirates Stadium)
Burnley's most recent victory came away from home, with a Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang own goal handing them a shock 1-0 win at the Emirates. This ended a run of nine consecutive defeats at Arsenal's home stretching back to 1975.
January 2022 - Arsenal 0-0 Burnley (Emirates Stadium)

Arsenal's biggest wins
Arsenal's 5-0 victory in February 2024 equaled their joint-biggest Premier League win against Burnley. They also won 5-0 at the Emirates in May 2018, when Arsène Wenger's final home game as manager saw Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and Alexandre Lacazette inspire a dominant display.
Key players to watch
Arsenal's attacking stars
Bukayo Saka remains Arsenal's most potent attacking threat on the right flank. The England international has scored in four consecutive Premier League appearances against Burnley, netting 6 goals across these four games. His direct running, technical ability, and end product make him a constant danger. His combination play with Martin Odegaard creates numerous scoring opportunities.
Martin Odegaard orchestrates all of Arsenal's attacking play from his central position. The Norwegian captain's vision, passing range, and ability to find pockets of space between the lines make him Arsenal's creative heartbeat. Since the start of the 2023 season, only five players have been involved in more Premier League goals than Odegaard (33 - 20 goals, 13 assists), more than any other midfielder during this period.
Leandro Trossard has proven to be a crucial player in this fixture, scoring multiple goals against Burnley including Arsenal's historic 1000th Emirates Stadium goal. The Belgian's movement, composure in the box, and ability to win penalties make him a constant threat.
Burnley's key men
With Burnley's squad changing based on their division, their key players will be those who can exploit any defensive vulnerabilities and work tirelessly to frustrate Arsenal's attacking play. The home side will need their goalkeeper to be in inspired form and their defensive unit to work as a cohesive whole to have any chance of taking points from the Gunners.
Turf Moor: England's historic fortress
Stadium information
Turf Moor is a piece of English football history. Occupied by Burnley FC since 1883, it's the second-longest continuously used football ground in English professional football, behind only Preston North End's Deepdale. This historic venue combines traditional charm with modern facilities, creating an authentic football atmosphere that's increasingly rare in today's game.
The stadium has a capacity of 21,944, which is approximately one seat for every three inhabitants of Burnley—one of the highest ratios in English football.

Stadium facilities

Burnley's proud heritage

Under Mikel Arteta, Arsenal have rediscovered their competitive edge and established themselves as genuine title contenders, finishing as runners-up in consecutive seasons and consistently challenging Manchester City for the Premier League crown.
