Confirmed Arsenal line-up vs Burnley, Odegaard & Havertz start

18 May 2026 - 19:22

Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta has named his starting line-up for the Premier League clash against Burnley at the Emirates Stadium tonight.

  • Chelsea to spend £325m on six signings under Xabi Alonso
  • Chelsea to sign £50m goalkeeper to replace Sanchez?


  • The Gunners are two points ahead of Manchester City at the top of the table and can extend the gap with a victory over the Clarets.

    Ahead of the game, the manager has made three changes from the 1-0 win over West Ham United at the London Stadium this month.

    Formation: 4-2-3-1

    Predicted Line-up:

    David Raya continues in goal for the Gunners as usual. He will be eyeing his 19th clean sheet of the top-flight campaign.

    In front of him, there is one enforced change in the defence. With Ben White injured, Cristhian Mosquera gets the nod at right-back.

    William Saliba will partner Gabriel in the heart of the backline, while Riccardo Calafiori continues on the left side of the defence.

    There is a surprise in midfield. Eberechi Eze will partner Declan Rice centrally with Martin Odegaard playing higher up the field. 

    Myles Lewis-Skelly drops to the bench despite his good form.

    In the final third, Bukayo Saka continues on the right wing with Leandro Trossard on the left but there is a new striker to lead the line.

    Kai Havertz has got the nod over Viktor Gyokeres upfront.

    Confirmed Arsenal line-up (4-2-3-1) vs Burnley: Raya; Mosquera, Saliba, Gabriel, Calafiori; Rice, Eze, Odegaard; Saka, Havertz, Trossard.
