Overview
- Arsenal hold a four-point lead after nine matches and have not conceded in six October games, with eight straight wins in all competitions.
- Mikel Arteta confirmed Gabriel Martinelli will miss the Turf Moor trip and said William Saliba will be assessed, with several longer-term absentees expected back in the coming weeks.
- Following a rotated 2-0 Carabao Cup win over Brighton, first-team regulars are expected to return, and Cristhian Mosquera could deputise at centre-back if Saliba is unavailable.
- Burnley come in with two successive league victories and sit 16th on 10 points, with Scott Parker likely to opt for a more defensive setup.
- The 3pm UK blackout rules out live television coverage domestically, with radio commentary and later highlights available.
