Arsenal v Burnley - Preview and possible lineups

Arsenal: The hosts will be without the stricken Laurent Koscielny after he tore his achilles during their 1-0 defeat to Atletico Madrid in the Europa League on Thursday. Mohamed Elneny (ankle) and Santi Cazorla (achilles) complete the list of absentees.

Burnley: Striker Chris Wood faces a late fitness test after he was substituted against Brighton last time out with a gashed foot. Ben Mee (shin), Scott Arfield (calf), Robbie Brady and Steven Defour (both knee) remain sidelined.

Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger:

"I feel sad because I love this club and what the club represents and you don't leave 22 years of your life and just walk away easy.

"I have dealt with difficult situations in my life and I will do it again. I had some time to adjust to do that and get that idea into my head.

"It's sad but all the love stories come to an end and they do not always finish well. Most of the time, they don't finish well!"

Burnley boss Sean Dyche:

"We are still not there yet but I think it is fair to speak about it, just on the amount of goals that are involved.

"Breaking new ground here has become a theme of the different successes we've had over the last few years, different historical markers. But that comes with the good work the players have done. We've had a marvellous season."
