Odds…
Arsenal: 1/2
Burnley: 27/4
Draw: 4/1
Arsenal 1-0 Burnley
22: Granit Xhaka is back on his feet but Ashley Barnes' game is over. An injury to his arm forces him off, on comes Sam Vokes.
Chelsea 0-0 Liverpool
24: Saido Mane forces a good near post save from Thibaut Courtois which is followed by a couple of testing Liverpool corners but Chelsea stand firm.
Arsenal 1-0 Burnley
Arsenal celebrate Pierre-Emerick Aubemeyang's opening goal.
Chelsea 0-0 Liverpool
31: Sadio Mane is looking the danger man.
Mane has a shot palmed by Thibaut Courtois into the path of Roberto Firmino. The Brazilian holds the ball up on the right of the box then squares it across to Mane who takes a touch then shoots at Courtois from the penalty spot but the goalkeeper was well placed to get his body behind the strike and save.
Chelsea 1-0 Liverpool
Olivier Giroud!
This goal could be huge for Chelsea's charge on the top four.
Against the run of play, Victor Moses gets forward and stands up a cross to the front post. There with every intention of beating Virgil Van Dijk is Olivier Giroud who generates power with a header and flicks the ball into the far corner. The Frenchman sprints to the bench and celebrates with David Luiz, much to Jurgen Klopp's annoyance.
Chelsea 1-0 Liverpool
35: Almost 2-0.
Cesc Fabregas drifts in behind Trent Alexander-Arnold then fires a low ball to the back post. Whether it's a cross of shot is unclear but either way it almost ends up in the back of the net. Liverpool are lucky nobody in blue was on hand to tap that in.
Chelsea 1-0
39: Mohamed Salah goes into the book for a blatent dive on the edge of the box. He's a great player and there's absolutely no need for that.
Chelsea break and Nathaniel Clyne goes in late on Marcos Alonso and also receives a card.
Arsenal 1-0 Burnley
43: Henrik Mkhitaryan receives a one-two from Alexandre Lacazette and fires a shot from the edge of the box. His low effort takes a touch off James Tarkowski after Nick Pope has dived but the goalkeeper reacts well by throwing an arm up to prevent the ball going in.
