With seven wins on the trot, Arsenal are the Premier League's best side currently. They beat Liverpool convincingly, 4-1, in their previous outing. Arsene Wenger's side, usually riddled by injuries, have very few headaches. Mathieu Debuchy and Mikel Arteta could be back for this one. Abou Diaby and Jack Wilshere are both working on their fitness. Laurent Koscielny has a minor thigh problem while Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain is out for two more weeks. Arsene Wenger had this to say about the problem according to ESPN FC:
"It (Recovery) is taking a bit longer than I thought because he has a groin inflammation. It is related to everything before."
"I hope it does not become a long-term problem, but he (Chamberlain) faces a hurdle this week in training. We will see if he has recovered well."
"The end of this week and the start of next week are important to see if he got rid of that inflammation. It is not his hamstring anymore. It is groin inflammation."
Arsenal's recent form meanwhile has raised a few eyebrows. They are the second most in-form team in the world right now:

As far as the title race is concerned though, Chelsea is just about pulling through by grinding out wins. Arsenal is seven points behind the leaders, having played an extra match. Burnley will not be the easiest opponent though, having drawn 0-0 against Tottenham and beaten Manchester City, 1-0 recently. They are in nineteenth place, fighting with all their might to stay up in the top division and not go down quickly after a promotion. Wenger will look to Olivier Giroud to score the goals and get Arsenal another win.
