Arsenal are now within touching distance. Mikel Arteta's side know the equation. Beat already-relegated Burnley at the Emirates before a final-day trip to a Crystal Palace side likely to have one eye firmly fixed on their cup final. It's opened up beautifully.
This Burnley clash looks about as close to a mismatch as the Premier League can offer. The Clarets have won just one of their last 27 league games. The market has Burnley at 18/1 - a price that would make an away victory the biggest shock result in Premier League history based on pre-match odds.
I'd expect Arsenal to start aggressively, pin Burnley deep early and simply overwhelm them through territory and pressure.
Everything points towards a routine home win and potentially a very one-sided evening.
