Arsenal v Burnley LIVE

Bottom-of-the-table Burnley are back in Premier League action for the first time in three weeks as they take on Arsenal at the Emirates.

The Clarets haven't kicked a ball in the top flight since the 3-1 defeat against Leeds United at Elland Road, though they were also dumped out of the FA Cup by Championship play-off hopefuls Huddersfield Town.

Sean Dyche has handed Wales international Connor Roberts a first Premier League start, with the ex-Swansea City defender stepping in for Matt Lowton, while Matej Vydra has returned to the side to partner Jay Rodriguez following Chris Wood's switch to Newcastle United.

Dutchman Erik Pieters will also deputise for Charlie Taylor, who will miss the game against the Gunners after taking a knock in training.

Burnley, now five points adrift of safety, with five games in hand on Norwich City, recorded their only victory of the campaign at the end of August when beating Brentford at Turf Moor.
