'Insane following': African fans' unbreakable bond with Arsenal FC
Arsenal Football Newsletter
Mikel Arteta is weighing up two changes to his Arsenal line-up tonight as Burnley visit in the Emirates Stadium.
Michael Jackson’s already-relegated Clarets visit north London this evening, having avoided defeat on two of their last three visits.
The Gunners are desperate to avoid a slip-up in their penultimate game, and know victory could even be enough to see them crowned Premier League champions the following day.
If Arsenal win and Manchester City then fail to beat Bournemouth 24 hours later, Arsenal will secure the title.
Arteta has named the same starting line-up for three matches in a row, but will be forced into at least one change against Burnley.
Martin Odegaard made an impact off the bench against West Ham
Ben White is out with a serious knee injury and will not play again this season, meaning Cristhian Mosquera is likely to start at right-back.
Another change could see captain Martin Odegaard start his first Premier League game in three week.
Odegaard was superb off the bench against West Ham, providing the assist for Leandro Trossard's winner, and the skipper is pushing to replace Eberechi Eze from the off.
Riccardo Calafiori is a doubt for this match after he came off at half-time at the London Stadium with an injury concern.
Myles Lewis-Skelly has impressed and could keep his place in midfield after Martin Zubimendi struggled against West Ham.
Up front, Viktor Gyokeres has been in strong form to keep Kai Havertz out the side and is expected to keep his place.
