Arsenal vs Burnley
Arsenal are back to winning ways in the Premier League with a 3-1 win over Burnley. It took the Gunners a long time to break their opponents down, with Trossard nodding them in front from close range just before half-time. Burnley fought back in the second half as Brownhill pulled them level, with a bit of help from Rodriguez, as his deflected shot wrong-footed Raya. They weren't level for long though, with Saliba getting the better of Trafford to head in a corner on the line before Zinchenko scored a spectacular acrobatic volley to secure the three points. Arsenal had to finish the game with 10 men after Vieira was sent off for a late, high challenge on Brownhill, but they were able to comfortably see it out. They're level on points at the top of the table with Manchester City, who don't play until tomorrow, and they travel to Brentford after the international break. Burnley's miserable run continues as they stay 14th, and it's West Ham at home up next for them. That's all for today, goodbye!

Jorginho is back on his feet, but the cut on his head is still bleeding. He's going to be taken off so that he can be patched up and Arsenal will be able to make a concussion substitution if there's time.

As Arsenal defended that last Burnley attack, Jorginho went down holding his head. He was actually caught by Kiwior, who was trying to flick the ball away, and the Italian requires treatment.

Burnley are still trying to push forward in search of another goal, but time is starting to run out here. Berge slides a wonderful throughball into Bruun Larsen, but his pullback isn't near a team-mate.

Gudmundsson is late getting across to Rice and just steps across him to stop the run. He picks up the first yellow card of the game.

There's an off-the-ball incident between Gabriel and Rodriguez in the box. The defender initially shoves Rodriguez out of the way, with the striker then throwing out an arm. After a quick VAR check, we're okay to continue with nothing more found in it.

We're into six added minutes here with Burnley on the attack still. The visitors have a bit more belief now due to their man advantage, but Arsenal are defending staunchly.
