Arsenal vs Burnley Competition – English Premier League Stadium: Emirates Stadium Date: 18th May 2026 Kick-off time – 20:00 GMT
Monday night at the Emirates is one of the Premier League season’s most high-stakes fixtures — but only for one side. Arsenal, locked in a title race that goes to the wire, welcome already-relegated Burnley knowing that three points here keeps the pressure squarely on Manchester City heading into the final day. For the visitors, this is a chance for nothing more than dignity in a season that has produced misery throughout.
The Gunners arrive in exceptional form, having not lost in five matches. Their most recent outing was a 1-0 win away at West Ham United, a composed result that extended their unbeaten run. Prior to that, a 1-0 home victory over Atlético Madrid in the Champions League knockout stages demonstrated their quality at the highest level. Before that, a commanding 3-0 home win over Fulham in the league underlined their attacking potency. Earlier in this run, a 1-1 draw away at Atlético Madrid in the first leg of that tie was a solid platform, and the oldest result was a 1-0 home win over Newcastle United. Four wins and a draw from five — including a Champions League knockout — represents the form of genuine title contenders.
Burnley’s campaign has been a struggle from start to finish, and the numbers tell the story plainly. Their most recent outing was a 2-2 home draw with Aston Villa. Prior to that, Leeds United beat them 3-1 away, and before that they were beaten 1-0 at home by Manchester City. Earlier in this run, Nottingham Forest put four past them away from home, and the oldest result in this sequence was a 2-0 home defeat to Brighton. One draw and four defeats in five is the reality of a side heading back to the Championship.
The head-to-head record strongly favours Arsenal, who have won four of the last five meetings between the sides, with one draw and no wins for Burnley. Most recently, Arsenal won 2-0 away at Turf Moor in November 2025, with Burnley as the home side. In the previous encounter, Arsenal won 5-0 away at Burnley in February 2024.
From a standings perspective, Arsenal head into this match on 79 points with two games remaining, sitting two points clear of Manchester City in second. A victory tonight takes the Gunners to 82 points. City are on 77 with two games left, giving them a maximum possible total of 83 — meaning the title could still be decided on the final day if City win both of their remaining fixtures. Arsenal know they cannot afford to slip up. Burnley, on 21 points in 19th place, are already confirmed in the relegation zone alongside Wolverhampton Wanderers, and their fate was sealed some weeks ago.
