Arsenal will be happy they can select their main man against Burnley…

Mikel Arteta will hope that Arsenal can keep up their 2020 unbeaten run in the second month of the year. Although, he will be hoping that February brings less draws and more wins, starting with his side’s away trip to Turf Moor to face Burnley.

Burnley away is always a tough match but Arsenal have what it takes to get all three points, it’s just a case of whether their players turn up on the day. The last these two sides met was under Unai Emery, where the Gunners picked up a 2-1 win at home.

Arteta will be thankful that he can put out a relatively strong team, especially with the captain and main talisman Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang back from his suspension. Many players have been in good form, particularly on an attacking front. That said, it will be interesting to see the changes the Arsenal boss makes in this match.
