Preview
The last match between Arsenal and Burnley was a Premier League clash at the Emirates Stadium on Monday, 18 May 2026. Arsenal won the match 1-0.
Arsenal dominated the game, creating several chances in the first half, before finally converting from a corner in the 36th minute through Kai Havertz. The hosts would continue to dominate possession, with Burnley staging a handful of threatening counterattacks, but neither side could create another genuine chance. Controversy came in the second half, as Havertz escaped being sent off despite a dangerous-looking challenge on Lesley Ugochukwu. However, Arsenal would hang on for the win, a result which took them one game away from winning the Premier League title. Read our pre-match betting preview below.

Arsenal’s controversial win over West Ham last week helped them maintain a two-point gap in the title race over Manchester City. Mikel Arteta’s men are now well and truly closing in on the side’s first Premier League title in over 20 years, and a win tonight will see them edge ever closer. If Arsenal win against Burnley and Man City drop points in any way over their final two league fixtures, Arsenal will be crowned champions. Can they take care of business this evening?

Burnley will be playing Championship football next season, but Mike Jackson’s men will be keen to spoil Arsenal’s party in the Gunners’ last home game of the season. The Clarets have been mathematically relegated for a while now, but with a bottom-of-the-table fixture against Wolves coming up in the final week of the season, Burnley are at risk of finishing dead last in the Premier League. Can they pick up points today to avoid this fate?

58 points separate these two sides in the league table, and Arsenal are understandably heavy favourites in this one. You can back them to win at 1/12, or at 1/14 in our 2 Up market which pays out if your team goes up by two goals during the game.
Burnley are the underdogs as they travel to a ground where they’ve won just once this century. You can back them to cause an upset at 20/1, or at 16/1 in our 2 Up market. If you think the two sides could be evenly matched, you can back the draw at 10/1.

We also offer a number of spread betting markets for tonight’s clash, including our “Goal Supremacy” market. This market currently has Arsenal favoured by 2.7-2.9 goals. This means that if you placed a “buy” bet, you would need Arsenal to win by at least three goals to start turning a profit, and if you sold, you would need Burnley to win, draw, or lose by two or fewer. If you bought, a three-goal victory for Arsenal would win you 0.1 times your stake, a four-goal victory 1.1 times your stake, and so on.
However, if you bought and Arsenal lost, drew, or won by only two or fewer, you would lose money. Here, a one-goal loss would cost you 3.9 times your stake, and a draw would cost 2.9 times your stake.
You can also bet on the total number of goals scored during the game with our Total Goals market. This is currently set at 3.7-3.9. If you’re expecting plenty of goalmouth action, you would “buy” and would need at least four total goals to turn a profit. Alternatively, if you expect a low-scoring affair, you could “sell” and would need three goals or fewer to turn a profit.
If you sold and the game ended 1-0, you would win 2.7 times your stake. However, if you sold and the game ended 4-2, you would lose 2.3 times your stake. It’s important to remember that when spread betting, if your bet loses, you can lose multiples of your stake, so be sure to choose appropriate stake sizes for each market.
