Arsenal XI vs Burnley: Starting lineup, confirmed team news, injury latest for Premier League today

Mikel Arteta has made some changes to his Arsenal line-up tonight as Burnley visit in the Emirates Stadium.

Michael Jackson’s already-relegated Clarets visit north London this evening, having avoided defeat on two of their last three visits.

The Gunners are desperate to avoid a slip-up in their penultimate game, and know victory could even be enough to see them crowned Premier League champions the following day.

If Arsenal win and Manchester City then fail to beat Bournemouth 24 hours later, Arsenal will secure the title.

Arteta has named the same starting line-up for three matches in a row, but is forced into at least one change against Burnley.

Martin Odegaard made an impact off the bench against West Ham (PA)

Ben White is out with a serious knee injury and will not play again this season, meaning Cristhian Mosquera starts at right-back.

Another change sees captain Martin Odegaard start his first Premier League game in three weeks.

Odegaard was superb off the bench against West Ham, providing the assist for Leandro Trossard's winner, and the skipper plays alongside Eberechi Eze from the off.

Riccardo Calafiori has overcome an injury concern to start at left-back.

Up front, Viktor Gyokeres has been in strong form, but he is dropped to the bench in favour of Kai Havertz.

Starting Arsenal XI: Raya; Mosquera, Saliba, Gabriel, Calafiori; Rice, Odegaard, Eze; Saka, Havertz, Trossard

Subs: Kepa, Lewis-Skelly, Hincapie, Zubimendi, Gyokeres, Jesus, Dowman, Madueke, Martinelli

Injured: Merino, Timber, White

Time and date: 8pm BST on Monday, May 18, 2026

Venue: Emirates Stadium
