First-half goals from Gyokeres and Rice seal a ninth straight win, putting the Gunners in a commanding position at the summit.
Arsenal tightened their grip on the Premier League summit this Saturday, delivering a dominant performance to sweep Burnley aside at Turf Moor. The comfortable win, fueled by first-half goals from Viktor Gyokeres and Declan Rice, marks the Gunners’ ninth consecutive victory across all competitions.
The North Londoners took full advantage of their rivals’ schedules, extending their lead at the top to seven points, at least temporarily. With second-place Bournemouth not playing until Sunday, Mikel Arteta’s side added crucial distance at the top of the table ahead of the weekend’s other key fixtures.
The league’s staunchest defence was further bolstered by the return of William Saliba, who slotted straight back into a lineup that saw ten changes from the midweek cup tie. Reverting to the settled XI that secured a hard-fought win over Crystal Palace last weekend, Arsenal looked organized and relentless, showcasing the depth and form that makes them the team to catch this season.
