Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang (£11.5m) and Alexandre Lacazette (£9.6m) both start for Arsenal as they host Burnley in Gameweek 18’s Saturday lunch-time kick-off.

Sead Kolasinac (£5.0m) returns to the starting line-up after being a fitness doubt for the game, while Ainsley Maitland-Niles (£4.4m) is the one to replace the injured Hector Bellerín (£5.4m) at right-back.

Meanwhile, Mohamed Elneny (£4.3m) comes into the side so that Lucas Torreira (£5.2m) can get a rest on the bench.

Aubameyang and Lacazette are joined in attack by Mesut Özil (£8.0m).

Burnley have lined up with a 5-3-2 formation and are expected to try to stay compact and hit Arsenal on the break.

James Tarkowski (£4.7m), Ben Mee (£4.7m) and Kevin Long (£4.2m) are the centre-backs with Charlie Taylor (£4.4m) and Phil Bardsley (£4.2m) flanking them.

Sean Dyche has typically used just one forward this season but he has bolstered the attack today with the inclusion of Ashley Barnes (£5.6m) and Chris Wood (£6.2m) up front.

Arsenal XI: Leno, Maitland-Niles, Sokratis, Monreal, Kolasinac, Xhaka, Elneny, Guendouzi, Ozil, Lacazette, Aubameyang.

Burnley XI: Hart, Bardsley, Tarkowski, Mee, Long, Taylor, Cork, Westwood, Hendrick, Barnes, Wood.

    Another thing Arsenal could learn from Liverpool is to take corners properly. Last season Liverpool were one of the worst teams at scoring from corners. This season they are amongst the best, because Klopp identified it and rectified it over summer.
